Wireless Wifi Driver MISSING - Windows 10

Hello everyone,

I know it's a common issue on both Windows 10 & Windows 11, but so far I have checked many threads for a solution without avail.

My laptop is an HP Envy 13-D110NF, I am running on an Intel Core I5 and my Wi-Fi driver is Realtek RTL8xxx Wireless LAN or Realtek RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN (not really sure on this one).

Here are the screenshots on Imgur : https://imgur.com/a/0eWkeQ4

My WiFi driver is completely gone (1), the Troubleshooter is telling that I have no driver for my Network Adapter (3).

I tried to reinstall the official pilot on HP Support and restarted my PC, but it did not work. The network adapter just doesn't show up on the device manager (5).

I also used the "Startup Repairs" from my BIOS menu to reinstall my wifi network adapter, as advised on this thread, but it had no effect.

I reset my laptop from scratch hoping it will solve the issue, but it didn't work either.

I have been losing my mind over this for two days now. At least the ethernet is working just fine. I think I am gonna need a new laptop at this point. I just don't understand why the driver vanished overnight.

So any help is most deeply apreciated.

Have a good day !

    Thank you kindly for your advice. I just did it but the issue has not been resolved :(

    I believe my issue is that I have no network driver at all and just can't manage to download one.

    Hi, I am Dhanam, Independent Advisor here to work with you on this issue.

    I know this has been difficult for you, Rest assured, I'm going to do my best to help you.

    these both are, WIFI Realtek RTL8xxx Wireless LAN or Realtek RTL8723BE/RTL8188EE 802.11b/g/n Wireless LAN

    I recommend doing an "in-place upgrade". This will download Windows 10 installer files and use those to update and repair your system.

    You can follow the video guide in the below link to know how to get it done:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/videoplayer/emb...

    1. Please visit this link : https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...
    2. There you will see an option "Download tool now"
    3. A media creation tool with the latest version will be downloaded.
    4. Open it in file location and run as administrator.
    5. Accept the terms and licenses.
    6. Select the "Upgrade this PC"
    7. And then the downloading will start.
    8. Press "Install" once done.

    The system will restart several time and the updates will happen.

    This upgrade will instll WIFI drivers otherwise get HP support and install network drivers This is a public user-to-user support forum. I'm a user like you helping other users. I do not work for Microsoft and cannot access any user accounts.

    I hope this can help you. If this still can't solve your problem, just let me know and I'll do my best to try to help you.

    Regards,

    Dhanam,

    Independent Advisor.
