Windows 10: How is it that my laptop can turn the airplane mode on by itself?

My laptop, Windows 10, occasionally decides to go into airplane mode and stay that way until it chooses not to. The setting for this mode is grayed out and in the on position. What the heck? I have had this problem for the last year and every time I ask for help, the wi-fi is not on to ask.

Can't turn off airplane mode

Hi Robert,

Turning off Airplane mode should be done by one click/tap. However, for us to isolate the concern, can you provide us the answers to these questions:

• Are you using a computer or mobile phone?
• What do you mean by "can't turn off airplane mode"?
• What troubleshooting steps have you tried to resolve the concern?
• Were there any changes made on your device prior to the issue?

If you're using a computer, we suggest that you check the answer of

We're looking forward to your response.

 

How to turn on off Airplane mode in windows 10?

Two methods as given in the article as well.

• Open Action Center by clicking the rightmost icon. In the bottom side, a tile of airplane mode would be given. Clicking that would turn it ON and turn it into bright tile.
• Navigate to Settings>Network and Internet and turn Airplane mode ON or OFF.

All clear steps are here as well:

Airplane Mode will not turn off

I tried these steps, as they were the same steps listed in a previous post as well, but no success. Airplane mode is still active, the option to turn it off is inaccessible still, and I'm getting fed up with Microsoft support who've had me on hold well
over two hours now!
