Windows 10: Networks not showing

Last night my computer was fine, i had internet and could play games/browse the web. However, this morning when I opened my computer, I had no internet suddenly. I checked if i was connected and there were no networks to even connect to. I usually have atleast 10 networks (not all mine) that if can connect to. I am on windows 10 abd have an alienware.


Solutions already tried:

Restart router

Flush DNS system

Update network driver

Troubleshooting


Also, when clicking on device manager an my main network adapter, it gives me an error:


“(This device cannot start (Code 10).


(Operation failed)

The requested operation was unsuccesful.”


Thank you for answering in advance.
