My laptop has been stuck on flight mode since mid december 2019. I remember my laptop was trying to update before this. I also can't control my laptop's volume or brightness like i used to with the F keys. There is no flightmode switch on my laptop. Here are some pics http://imgur.com/gallery/u4niNEK
