    WiFi Icon turned into Ethernet icon after shutting down

    Hello Michel,

    May we know if you have made any changes to your device prior to the issue of the network icon changing to Ethernet?

    As a first troubleshooting step, we suggest that you run the Network adapter troubleshooter and let Windows find and resolve problems within your network adapter. Here's how to run the troubleshooter:

    • Press the Start button, then type troubleshooting, click
      Troubleshooting from the list of results.
    • Click View all.
    • Click Network Adapter.
    • Follow the onscreen instructions to finish the troubleshooting.

    System Icons on taskbar

    If so, I suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below:


    • Click on the search bar on the taskbar.

    • Type system icons.

    • Under Turn System Icons ON or OFF, turn On the Clock and check with the issue.

    Hope it helps.
