  1. WiFi adapter wont reinstall after scan/reset windows 10


    My WiFi adapter first had an issue and would not work, therefore after researching I uninstalled it and restarted it. I then scanned for changes and restarted and it's not come back, it's completely gone I have checked show hidden. I feel like I've tried everything, I can't update it because it literally isn't there so what else can I do??Thanks

    :)

    I keep losing my WiFi adapter

    I tried the Option 2 approach but kept getting the Error NetSetupDeleteObjecton Network Adapter error (0x80070005) error, even after a dozen executions of the command. That seemed like it was going nowhere so I tried Option 1. After completing the reboot in Option 1, I never got the dialog that asked if I wanted to make the computer discoverable, even after a significant wait. Do you have any further suggestions? I'm going to move on to "Compumind's" suggestion in the meantime and see if that helps.... - - - Updated - - -
    I started working my way down the list.
    1. Both the ipv4 and ipv6 resets said "access denied!". However, the mere attempt worked *briefly*, then the WiFi went down again.
    2. I disabled and re-enabled the network adapter. Again, it worked *briefly*, then I lost the WiFi again.
    3. I tried to disable the antivirus but couldn't find a setting for that so uninstalled it entirely. I got the WiFi back and this time it stayed on for several hours instead of a few minutes so I assumed it was fixed. Then I installed the new Avast One and the WiFi is still working so I'm assuming that all is well finally!
    Thank you for this list of suggestions!!!

  3. Can’t reinstall WiFi adapter even after restarting my computer and scanning for hardware changes

    After some problems with my wifi, i decided to uninstall my wifi driver expecting it to reinstall. After restarting my laptop and scanning for hardware changes, it wasnt reinstalled. I tried then connecting to ethernet, but i was still unable to access
    the internet. How can fix this problem? I have no restore points and resetting the pc and network drivers doesnt work. It wont even allow me to reset my pc. My computer is a 64 bit windows 10 and has a 802.11ac wifi adapter.

    WiFi Adapter question

    To be honest, I keep losing my wifi connection and Im almost positive its not due to my internet connection or Router or anything like that. VERY often, everyday, all day it keeps happening. The troubleshooter always resolves it by "reset wifi-adapter" (I believe this is the step it takes that resolves the problem) before it happens again anyways. Its driving me nuts ! Most time when it suddenly goes out (the connection) all the networks that should be in "show available networks" or all but the one I was connected to, disappear. I run the troubleshooter and it ends in resetting the wifi adapter. And it works. 10 minutes later, it happens again. Im trying to pin down the problem here. Thank you for your help.
