woke up by 8:30 AM
on a Saturday morning
really pumped up to work
then realized the
the airplane mode light is on
nope I don’t remember
putting my PC in airplane mode
yesterday night
damn.. Wi-Fi was not working again
not even detecting any networks
not even having the Wi-Fi bar
alright
let’s run through the usual routine
Control Panel > Networks & Connections
WiFi adapater is not even detected there
next up run Admin > Services
WLAN is alive and kicking
not being stopped or whatever
damn..
next up..
found this really well detailed post
from AskVG
Network Connections Folder is Empty in Windows
with 4 suggested solutions
run Registry Editor
deleted a certain Config key
nope.. not really working
I dared not move on to the
2nd method which is to
uninstall your network adapter
from Device Manager
but at least a ! is
detected here
next to the Wi-Fi adapter
yet from the information
in properties tab
found a Code 43
explaining why the device
stopped functioning
alright will search for
other solutions again
using Code 43 as keyword
that led me back to Microsoft Forum
Code 43 and wifi adapter not working
the official solution provided
you know that is not gonna work
which is to run troubleshooter
indeed I had already did
before moving on here
scrolling down to see replies
you know.. those could sometimes
be even more helpful
indeed
found one with
“18 people found this helpful”
indeed it is
I have left the 19th vote here
all it takes is…
Try this:
Open "Device Manager"
Right-Click your Wifi Adaptor and select "Properties"
Disable and Re-enable the adaptor.
that’s all
Wi-Fi is back again
