Hi, Tracy:

 

Unfortunately, there is no telling what will happen since the wifi adapter is working at your house, I assume.

 

These are the latest W11 Wifi and bluetooth drivers for that model wifi adapter...

Hello @mik1943 .
Just to add that you can view the Windows update history by entering the following link in the URL of the browser you are using either Edge,Chrome: ms-settings:windowsupdate-history?activationSource=SMC-Article-12373.
Press enter / click Open Settings and check the Driver Updates section and you will be able to verify what has been updated.

 

Manually you can do the following:
Select Start> Settings >Windows update > update history.
