I tried to reboot Windows 10, troubleshooting, rool back driver, reinstall driver, reset UEFI settings, update UEFI firmware, flash back UEFI firmware, clean boot, reset this PC, reinstall Windows and noting works. If I reboot my laptop many times the wifi device may online again,however, if I have no luck, wifi adaptor will disappear again if i resume Windows 10 from sleep or reboot.

This error occurs if a device that was previously connected to the computer is no longer connected. To resolve this problem, reconnect this hardware device to the computer.
