It was stated on another post that drivers for RTL8852BE on win 10/11 are available, 
Can I please have a link to the latest drivers that will finally resolve this matter?  Thank you HP.

For some reason, HP has removed all of the Realtek Wi-Fi drivers from almost every PC's support page.

 

According to the Microsoft Update Catalog website, the latest driver for the RTL8852BE/RTL8852BE-VS is 6001.15.156.0, so give that one a try.

 

You want the first file on the list.  It is good for W10 or W11 even though the info just indicates W11.

 

Microsoft Update Catalog

 

Now, since this file is a cabinet file and there is no executable, you will have to manually install the driver.

 

The first thing you need to do is to download and install the free 7-Zip file utility so you can unzip the cabinet file into a driver folder you can work with. 

 

You want the first file listed on the link below:

 

7-Zip

 

After you install 7-Zip, right click on the cabinet file you saved from the Windows Update Catalog site.

 

Have 7-Zip Extract to:  and let it extract the file into that long folder name.

 

After that is done, go to the device manager.

 

Click on the Realtek Wi-Fi adapter.

 

Click on the driver tab.  Click on Update driver.

 

Select the 'Browse my computer for drivers' option and browse to the driver folder that 7-Zip created.

 

Make sure that the Include subfolders box is checked and the driver should install.
