⚠️ Important Notes

  • This tool is for Windows only.
  • You must run it as Administrator.
  • Your internet may disconnect while the repair is running.
  • A restart is required after running the script.
  • This script may reset custom firewall/network settings.
  • If WiFi still does not appear, your WiFi driver may need to be reinstalled or updated.

❌ This Tool May Not Fix

This script may not solve the problem if:

  • Your WiFi card is physically damaged
  • WiFi is disabled in BIOS/UEFI
  • Airplane mode is forced by hardware switch
  • The WiFi driver is missing or corrupted
  • The laptop manufacturer requires a specific wireless driver
  • Windows has a deeper system corruption issue

🔐 Is It Safe?

The script uses built-in Windows commands such as:

net stop
net start
ipconfig
netsh
PowerShell Enable-NetAdapter

You can open the .bat file in Notepad and review everything before running it.


🧩 Troubleshooting

WiFi is still missing after restart

Try these steps:

  1. Open Device Manager.
  2. Expand Network adapters.
  3. Check if your WiFi adapter appears.
  4. If it has a warning icon, reinstall or update the driver.
  5. Download the latest WiFi driver from your laptop manufacturer's website.

Script says “Please run this file as Administrator”

Right-click the .bat file and select:

Run as administrator

WiFi comes back but disappears again

That usually means your WiFi driver may be unstable. Update or reinstall the wireless adapter driver.
