Windows 10: Problem connecting to wireless. Adapter is corrupt

I have an Acer Aspire F5-572 and it doesn't show me any networks floating around. I have had to connect it to the Ethernet cable which is in a really inconvenient part of the house. When i try to troubleshoot the problem it says "Qualcomm Atheros QCA9377 Wireless Network Adapter is experiencing driver or hardware problems device" and when i go to device manager to check its state its says "Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39) Object Name not found.) Someone please help!!

Windows Wireless Display Adapter-not connecting anymore

Hello Phillip,

Did you notice any changes on your PC prior to the issue? I suggest that you follow the steps outlined in this support article:
Troubleshooting Wireless Display Adapters.

Since updating drivers did not work, in addition, you can try to reset the Wireless Adapter.

1. On the adapter, press and hold the reset button for 10 seconds.
2. When the message " Ready to connect "shows, open the
   Action Center.
3. Select Connect, and in the list of displays, select
   Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter.

Please respond to this thread to let me know how the issue progresses. Similarly, if you have more questions, please inform me by replying to this post.
