Hi Everyone, I'm looking for advice on adding a Mobile Hotspot feature to the Quick Actions tray in Windows 10. My Dell XPS 15 9550 is running Windows 10 Home, but I can't find a way to enable it. A friend with a Surface Book using Windows 10 Pro has it available there. Any suggestions?

Ensure a compatible wireless card is installed. To install, navigate to Start > Settings (gear icon) > System > Notifications & Actions > Add or remove quick actions. You'll find the "Mobile hotspot" option there; toggle it on and it should show in the Action Center Quick Actions. If it's missing from the list, your card may not support this feature.

I understand, I often rely on the Mobile Hotspot feature and noticed the steps differ depending on the device. It seems the quick action button isn’t available in the standard quick actions menu, but it works when added to the Action Center. If you’re using a Surface Book with Windows 10 Pro, let me know so I can help locate it there.
