1. Problem description
Recently, the wifi icon suddenly disappeared during use. Even after restarting using the above method, it was not successful. Therefore, I continued to try to solve the problem.
2. Reason analysis
I plan to continue to find the reason from the network card driver.
Win+x opens the window, selects the device manager, opens it, and expands the network adapter.
I forgot to take a screenshot when I solved it this time, so I just copied the picture from last time, hahaha
I found that there is also a yellow exclamation mark here.
Select self-driven (marked with a red box) and double-click to open it.
I forgot to take a screenshot when I solved it this time, so I just copied the picture from last time, hahaha
It also shows that the device cannot be started.
Then I suspect that there may be a conflict with other drivers, or that the driver was not installed properly during installation.
3. Solution
Two methods came to mind.
1. Uninstall the self-driver
Because I suspected that the self-drive might conflict with other drivers, I uninstalled it directly.
I forgot to take a screenshot when I solved it this time, so I just copied the picture from last time, hahaha
Go back to the network adapter, right-click to uninstall the device, check the prompt box, and then restart the computer.
After restarting, I found that there is a network, hahahaha.
2. Reinstall the driver
Although it is said that the network status was successfully restored through uninstallation, I still feel mentally empty after deleting things. So, after thinking about it, maybe my situation is just that the self-driver is damaged, so I will try to reinstall the wifi driver. ?
I went to the official website to find the public version of the driver, the link is as follows:
Windows® 10 and Windows 11* Wi-Fi Drivers for Intel® Wireless Adapters
Select this to download, then install, and restart the computer after the installation is successful.
After restarting, I found that there is a network connection . At present, there is no disappearance of the wifi driver. It should be that my driver was not installed or damaged at the beginning. (PS: If it disappears later, it may be that the driver conflicts with other drivers, so uninstall the self-drive).
