I reset the network due to my laptop couldn't connect to my wifi network. After I restart the laptop it doesn't show the wifi icon.  There is no wifi adapter or wifi driver present in my laptop now. Please help me to fix this.

I'm here unrelated reasons. BUT, I seen your post. You said the device wasn't there? To me that means you checked the device manager and the network adapter isn't showing. I'm not a help person. But, Hold down the windows key and then hit X (WineKey+X), then click on device manager click action and scan for hardware changes. Look down the list and expand the Network Adapters and the network card should show. Min's an "intel dual .. wireless". When things go wrong, I uninstall it (remove it) and then do the scan for hardware thing. Which, if I'm not mistaken is what those trouble shooter things do. I highly doubt that the drivers were erased from your device so it should work after that. Mind you, hopefully someone else can help don't count on me and good luck.
