Seriously fucking pissing me the fuck off.

New Lenovo laptop. Already has Windows 10.

About last week I noticed that there was suddenly no wireless option. It was like I never had wireless in the first place.

I searched online and they said to reinstall it through the Device Manager. So I did that.

It happened a couple times and I just did that and it was fine.

Now there’s no wireless again. This time I can’t find the wireless driver on the Device Manager. So I find these directions to reinstall it or whatever through the command prompt:

1. Run cmd as administrator

2.Type in: reg delete HKCR\CLSID\{988248f3-a1ad-49bf-9170–676cbbc36ba3} /va /f

3. Then type in: netcfg -v -u dni_dne

4. Restart computer

When I do step 2, I get a message back that it can’t find the driver. But when I do step 3 it says the driver isn’t installed then it installs it and says “done”.

So I restart my computer

and nothing happens.

Fucking wireless still not appearing as an option.

And NO – it’s not my router or anything because literally everything else that’s running on wireless in my house works.

Goddammit the one time today I really need to use wireless on my laptop and this shit isn’t working. The hell is going on? I’m absolutely livid.
