Windows 10: WiFi has permanently turned off

I have a Lenovo yoga laptop and the WiFi function has turned on and will not turn back on. I have gone through the troubleshoot recommendations and none of them work, including a network reset. Every time I click on the toggle to turn the WiFi on it just shuts back off instantly.

Windows 10 wifi not turning on Acer Aspire laptop

In order to get the list of available wireless networks, you have to:

1. Switch on Connect to suggested open hotspots (see the screenshot in question);
   
2. Click on Wifi icon in the right corner. Now you have your networks back.
   

After that the parameter from Step 1 can be turned off, networks will be listed normally after restarting Wifi.

P.S. I feel rather stupid at the moment. I thought that open hotspots are passwordless hotspots and so are presumably not very safe. So of course I've turned that off during installation.
Really hard to see any logic in this case.
