  1. Unable to get out of airplane mode


    Recently, I got a new computer because my old one was bad, so I was excited to get this new one. However, when I first opened it up, I noticed that it was set to 'airplane mode' for some reason. I searched everywhere in settings, and there was no 'turn off airplane mode' button as most websites suggested, so I was unable to do that either.I followed multiple websites guides, such as trying to use the Windows Action Center, disabling and re-enabling something that would decide if it could connect to the internet at all, and even making it so it's impossible to even access airplane mode at all

    :)
