  1. Wifi Driver and settings Disappearing randomly


    I am using ASUS TUF Gaming A15 series laptop. Recently I am facing issues related to the wifi driver. The system works perfectly after I connect to a wifi network. But then suddenly and randomly the wifi setting disappears and even the driver is not visible in Device Manager. After restarting, the wifi option and the driver appears in settings and device manager respectively but it causes a lot of problems while working and especially while gaming.I have some similar queries but none have helped me so far. WiFi driver installed in my laptop: MediaTek Wi-Fi 6 MT7921 Wireless LAN Card

    :)

  2. Wireless network driver randomly disappears and reappears - Windows 10

    Hi,

    I realize that wireless network driver randomly disappears on Windows 10. I will try to help you with this issue.

    You will be able to solve some problems by running a troubleshooter that will automatically fix some common issues with Windows Update.

    Open the Network troubleshooter by following these steps:


    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Control Panel.

    • Click on Troubleshooting and click on
      View All.
    Click on “Network Adapter” troubleshooter to fix problems with
    Network Adapter. Follow the on-screen directions to run this troubleshooter and restart the computer to check if this helps.

    You may run the Power troubleshooter and restart the computer to check if this helps.


    • Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Control Panel”.

    • Click on “Troubleshooting”.

    • Click on “View all” and select “Power”.
    Follow the on-screen directions to run this troubleshooter completely. Once this is done, restart the computer and check the status.

    You may also want to reset the WiFi router to check if that helps.

    Keep us informed to help you further.

    Thank you.

    Network (wifi) settings won't stick

    Network settings randomly flip. Has anyone seen this before? Any suggestions?

    Windows 10 Pro 64 bit
    Linksys Velop WHW0303 wifi
    VPN
    ASUS (Broadcom) 802.11ac network adapter

    All drivers, firmware, and software seems to be up-to-date.

    Network settings randomly flip:

    Wifi Driver and settings Disappearing randomly 336108d1622916019t-network-wifi-settings-wont-stick-picture1.png


    The first column shows what is wanted. The second and third columns show what Windows flips to. Also, the Network Profile randomly flips from Public (which I want) to Private, but not vice versa.

    Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  4. Wifi Driver and settings Disappearing randomly

    Taskbar doesn't disappear when entering fullscreen

    I tried the Ctrl-Alt-Del and found Windows Explorer. Unfortunately, I didn't choose Restart; I killed the process. (didn't read the instructions well enough!) :-/ ... I did eventually find a way to Restart Windows Explorer, but the problem (disappearing Task bar not disappearing/reappearing as it should/used to) did not solve itself. I then RESTARTED the PC. Still not fixed.

    So, I found another answer from microsoft and followed those steps. It worked! (needed the display driver updated.)

    Here's that set of instructions:

    I suggest you to try updating the Display Adapter drivers check if it works for you.

    Follow the steps to update the Display driver:

    Press Windows Key + X key and click Device Manager.
    Expand ‘Display Adapters’.
    Right-click on the Display Adapter listed and click on ‘Update Driver Software’.
    Select the option to automatically search for the updated driver software.
    Restart the computer after its updated and verify.

    Also try to access the computer manufacturer's website and download the latest chipset and display drivers for your computer and install the same.
