Had this problem 2 years ago and checked to see if it was fixed every month for 2 years. (Didnt go to professionals but tryed EVERYTHING on the web.) Fixed it yesterday when I opened my laptop on accident. It worked good for less than a day then died again today. Hopefully it doesnt go for too long this time. Please suggest how I can fix this, already tried most things but anything helps and I'll try them all.

@LAPTOP-6PFSM2NC -- Please suggest how I can fix this, already tried most things but anything helps and I'll try them all.

 

It could be an intermittent problem with the WiFi adapter inside your computer. 

The adapter works for a while, and then does not work.

 

Have you already tried using the Windows "Device Manager" to disable the adapter, and then purchasing a WiFi adapter that connects to a USB socket on your computer, and using that adapter? This would be quick and inexpensive.

 

Have you tried disassembling your laptop, to physically remove the WiFi adapter, and replace it, if you can find & purchase a compatible WiFi adapter?  This type of repair should be done by a computer technician, making it more expensive than using an external WiFi adapter, as above.
