    Open the Settings App.

    Go to Network and Internet - Hotspot

    On that window, you can enable the Mobile Hotspot on your laptop.

    Before you do that in the Properties section, click Edit and you can set your preferred Hotspot password to enter on the other device you will be connecting to the Hotspot.

    To share your laptop's internet connection with other devices like a hotspot, you can enable Internet Sharing (also known as tethering) on your Windows laptop. Here’s how to do it:

    1. Open Settings: From the Start menu, go to Settings.
    2. Network Settings: Click on Network & Internet.
    3. Mobile Broadband: If your laptop has a mobile broadband connection, select it under the Mobile Broadband section.
    4. Enable Internet Sharing: Look for the option to enable Internet Sharing and turn it on. If the mobile broadband network is disconnected, your device will automatically connect to it before setting up the Wi-Fi network.
    5. Configure Wi-Fi Network: You can change the network name (SSID) and password by clicking on Edit after enabling Internet Sharing. Ensure that the Wi-Fi network uses WPA2-PSK for security.
    6. Connect Other Devices: Other devices can now connect to your laptop's Wi-Fi network just like any other Wi-Fi network.

    Make sure that your laptop does not go into sleep mode while Internet Sharing is enabled to maintain the connection for the other devices.
