    Reset network adaptor and Wi-Fi adaptor does not function anymore

    I had some problems connecting to a new network, so I tried reseting the network adaptors. However, after that my Wi-Fi does not work anymore, the button for Wi-Fi (I don't know how it's called i'm sorry) disappeared.

    When I troubleshoot it, it was described as

    - "problem with the driver for the Wi-Fi adaptor".

    - Windows couldn't automatically bind the IP protocol stack to the network adaptor.

    My laptop has:

    - Windows 11 Home Insider Preview - Version Dev (OS Build 22543.1000)

    - Network adaptor Wi-Fi driver: Qualcomm (R) Wi-Fi B/G/N/AC (2x2)

    I have tried:

    - restart my computer

    - reset my network adaptor

    - disable and enable my Wi-Fi network adaptor

    - update my driver (it is indeed updated to the latest)

    Does anybody had this before? How do you fix it? Helppp

    Thank you in advance.
