How to keep Network Setup Service in Automatic mode in Windows 11.

Hello BenoitLe,

To ensure the Network Setup Service remains in Automatic mode in Windows 11, preventing it from reverting to Manual which negatively impacts Wi-Fi connectivity, follow these steps: Open 'Services.msc' via the Run dialog (Win + R). Locate 'Network Setup Service' in the list, right-click and select 'Properties'. In the 'Startup type' dropdown, choose 'Automatic' and apply the changes. If the service continues to switch back to Manual without a system reboot, consider checking for system updates or using Task Scheduler to enforce the setting. For persistent issues, consulting Windows Support may be necessary.

Hope this helps,
