Hi,



Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Apologize for the difficulties that you're experiencing in Windows 10.

Not to worry, we’re here to help you out.



It appears that the drivers might be incompatible with Windows 10.

Let us follow the below steps, and check if it helps.



Step 1: Initially, I suggest you to run Network Adapter troubleshooter.

Network Adapter troubleshooter finds and fixes problems with wireless and other Network Adapters.

• 
  Press Windows key + X key and Select
  Control Panel
  
• 
  Select Troubleshooting.
  
• 
  Select View All on the top left corner.
  
• 
  Run Network Adapter troubleshooter.
  

Step 2: Install the driver in compatibility mode

Compatibility mode runs the program using settings from a previous version of Windows.

Follow the below steps:

• Right-click on the setup file of the driver and select
  Properties.
• Select Compatibility tab.
• Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode and select
  previous the version of Windows (Windows 8) from the drop down list.
• Let the driver install and then check the functionality.
  

Hope it helps.

Network drivers missing

Hello Timothy,

Thank you for bringing up your query on Microsoft Community.

Appreciate the steps that you have taken so far to fix this issue.

Please be assured that we will do our best to help you.

Initially, I suggest you to check if the Network option is turned on under settings.

Settings > Systems >
Notifications and actions > Select which icon appear on the task bar > toggle on
Network.

An outdated or incompatible network adapter driver can cause this problem.

Let us try to update the Network adapters and check if it helps.

• In the search box on the taskbar, type Device Manager, and then select
  Device Manager from the list of results.
• In Device Manager, select Network adapters > the network adapter name.
• Right-click (or press and hold) the network adapter, and then select
  Update Driver Software > Search automatically for updated driver software. Follow the steps, then select
  Close.
• After installing the updated driver, select the Start button >
  Power > Restart if asked to restart, and see if that fixes the connection issue.
  

If Windows can’t find a new driver for your network adapter, visit the PC manufacturer’s website and download the latest network adapter driver from there. If your PC can't connect to the Internet, you'll need to download a driver on a
different PC and save it to a USB flash drive, so you can install the driver on your PC. You’ll need to know the PC manufacturer and model name or number.
