HP Recommended
Product: HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk10000 Laptop PC (8VD47AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

The wifi and bluetooth buttons have started randomly disappearing from my laptop. The wifi is working one moment and just disappears the next. I have tried everything from restarting to completely resetting my laptop. The button still vanishes randomly and appears back after hours. By vanishes I mean that I cannot see the button in my taskbar, I cannot search for any wifi related settings, even the Intel wifi driver in my device manager shows the yellow triangle with the exclamation mark symbol. I have tried disabling and reenabling the driver, updating it automatically, updating it with a fresh install from the Intel website, but the issue still persists. Each time the wifi disappears, it takes longer to come back. And then it will disappear again in an hour or two.
