    my wirless adapter's gone and I uninstalled it now I can't bring it back


    Hi

    I have a Asus laptop windows 10

    My wireless adapter's gone from device manager, but I could see it when i clicked on hidden/show from toolbar I tried a lot and finally bring it back and turned off the power management which could turn the wireless off to to save battery , and still the icon of wi-fi is not there. I did everything and at the end I uninstalled the wireless adapter from hidden adapters in device manager!!

    Is there any chance to bring my wireless adapter back and also fix this problem with being disable for using wifi and just ethernet cable

    Please answer a.s.a.p.....

    :)

  2. wirless connection capabilities gone.

    It is a desktop. There are no f buttons with a wirless symbol on it and the fn+f2 didnt work. Dangit

    also tried the rest didnt work. I dont know the name of the wireless adapter but i assume it is the same as the ethernet because the wirless shouled be on the same card.

    It is like somehow poof it is like there was never anywifi on this pc. Man it is frustrating.

    Manually uninstalling network adapter results in no boot

    Hi. I have an Acer Aspire E 15 laptop that was not connecting to any Wi-Fi networks. I tried some previous steps I had taken in the past to no avail, then used my phone to search for some solutions which led me to the suggestion to uninstall my network adapter.

    I believe that this is where I made a mistake. I uninstalled a Qualcomm adapter, which I believe was the correct one. I also have installed a Virtual Machine application called Virtual Box that had some adapters listed there - figured I'd uninstall those
    as well since the diagnostic report while trying to connect to the wi-fi had those listed. I also uninstalled another item listed under network adapters - I can't remember exactly what it was. Perhaps that was my problem? Regardless, my understanding was that
    Windows would re-install any adapter that was missing on a system restart.

    However, now my laptop won't boot. It loads to the "Acer" screen with the rotating icon and now brings me to "Automatic Repair." I've tried restarting again, "continue" to windows 10 and running diagnostics on my system startup but none has worked - it still
    seems to get stuck on the boot screen for ~20+ minutes.

    Does anyone have any suggestions or could offer any help? I understand a system reset may be in order here - but if there's a possible solution without doing that then I'd be interested.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Windows 10 - Cannot connect to WiFi. How to uninstall network adapter driver?

    Hi,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    • Right click on Windows icon on the taskbar.
    • Select Control panel.
    • Click on network and sharing center.
    • At the left top corner click on Change adapter settings.
    • There you will be able to see the Driver name of the network Adapter next to the Icon.
    • Then you can go to device manager and check for that network adapter and you can uninstall the driver.
