Windows 10: How do I install a driver with no internet and S mode on and/or how do I turn off S mode...

I recently downloaded Windows 10 onto my Lenovo computer because I couldn’t get out of S mode on my Windows 11 without paying to do so. But on Windows 10, I guess it wiped the driver when I wiped everything off the computer to install it, so now I can’t connect to the internet. There isn’t an ethernet port on my computer to connect that way, and I can’t install a driver via a USB from another computer because it isn’t a “microsoft verified” app, which wouldn’t be a problem if I could turn off S mode. But I can’t turn off S mode because I have no internet, and I have no internet because I can’t

Windows 10 --- Airplane Mode Will Not Turn Off / Wi-Fi will not turn on

Hi,



Welcome to Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.



I would like to inform you that if the Airplane mode is turned on the computer it will suspends any signal transmissions from your computer to comply with airline regulations. Hence the feature like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth will not
work when this mode is enabled on the computer.



Method 1:

I would suggest you to run network troubleshooter to check for any Internet connectivity issues.

• • 
    Open Control Panel.
    
  • 
    Click ‘Troubleshooting’
    in the search result.
    
  • 
    Click on ‘Network and Internet’.
    
  • 
    Click on ‘Network Adapter’
    to start the troubleshooter.
    

Method 2:

If the issue persists, I would suggest you to try the steps and check if it helps.

• Open the Control Panel, click on the
  Network and Sharing Center link and click on the Connect to a network.
• Airplane mode, move the slider right or left to turn it on or off.
• When finished, you could close the Control Panel and press the
  Windows key to return to the Start screen.

Note: You will not see an Airplane mode option if you are connected to a wired, Ethernet-based network.

Method 3:

If the issue persists, I would suggest you to download and install latest network driver from the computer manufacturer website and check if it helps.
