Windows 10: Not picking any networks on WiFi

Strange issue seems to be occuring. I have a HP laptop which is only a couple of months old and it has completely stopped picking up any networks wirelessly. Hotspot from phone doesn’t appear, my home wifi has stopped appearing.

I’ve tried to set up a network manually home wifi and have a message appear saying an unexpected error has occurred.

very confused
