Windows 10: WiFi appears and disappears from Task Manager, showing that my laptop can't connect to the...

Hello, my HP laptop suddenly having problem connecting to WiFi & hotspot. It suddenly happened and I really don't know what to do. I checked Task Manager and noticed that the WiFi is appear and disappear. I already tried to restore to previous point, uninstall & reinstall the device at device manager and also disable the device but no can do. I also use HP network diagnostic and windows troubleshooter but still the same. Weirdly in Device manager it still detect, but in task manager it disappears and appears like in the picture below. Please helpp

WiFi appears in Manage Known Networks, not in Show Available Networks

The list of WiFi connections shown when you click the WiFi icon in the taskbar is a list of all the signals that can currently be seen by the WiFi adapter. The list in Manage Known Networks is a list of all those you have previously successfully connected to, whether or not they are currently available.

The only plausible explanation is that for a while that WiFi signal had been turned off.

 

WiFi appears in Manage Known Networks, not in Show Available Networks

I have two Internet Service Providers at home, one is on fibre and other on landline. Both of them were available on my Desktop, Laptop and iPhone till recently. The fibre of the connection has suddenly disappeared from the Desktop only although it shows in Manage Known Networks. Restoring an earlier image has not helped and Adapter drivers are up-to-date.
Any suggestions to bring the fibre network back on Desktop? OS is Windows 0 Professional. TIA.

The news is good but not for any activity on my part. Just as the the WiFi availability had disappeared from the Desktop all of a sudden, it appeared again this morning in a similar way. The feature Windows 10 update was downloading when it appeared.
Hence problem solved but why it occurred in the first place is still a mystery.

 

Wifi adapter disappears - goes 'hidden'


Running Windows 10 on an Acer laptop. Over the past month, the wifi connection dropped without explanation/warning.

First time, the adapter was visible in Device Manager (with a yellow triangle next to it). An interent search found the suggestion to uninstall it and restart. That worked.

Today, the connection dropped again. In Device Manager at first I could not see the wifi adapter listed. I clicked to see hidden devices and found the adapter and the Bluetooth (which I had not noticed was missing).

I again uninstalled, restarted, and both the wifi and bluetooth have returned.

Anyone any ideas as to what is happening, why it's happening, and what I need to do, please?

I have attached a screenshot of the DM windows as it is now, showing the wifi adapter name, etc.

Thanks very much
