The name says it all. I recently reinstalled windows on my school notebook and was surprised that i couldn't log onto the wifi because I could not see any of the networks on the network list. I have had this issue in the past and fixed it somehow with command prompt. could someone give me the command to fix the issue using command prompt. Also I noticed that the start menu search bar is stuck loading which is a returning issue as well. Thanks

No, I don't have the driver installed.

I should look it up. What does it appear as in the Device Manager?

That didn’t resolve the issue. I tried reinstalling all drivers, but it didn’t help.

For video drivers, use DDU. Remove network device drivers via the device manager.

I understand, but it seems some other options were removed too. Even after reinstalling drivers, the old ones often disappear automatically. I discovered a solution by connecting to the Wi-Fi on my Windows login screen, which shows a functional list and suggests drivers aren’t the problem. My main concern is that the Windows search bar stops responding when I type in it. The Wi-Fi issue remains unresolved.

For a brand-new setup, I’d consider reinstalling Windows. That approach resolved similar problems for me.
