Try installing the following Windows 8.1 driver for the RTL8723BE. Install it in compatibility mode.

If that does not work, then I suggest replacing the wifi adapter with one that is know to support hosted networking in Windows 10.  You can also use a usb wifi dongle that supports hosted networking.

 

An ASUS USB-AC56 dongle does support hosted networking.

I think the solution to this is:

1. Open cmd with administrative privileges. TO do that press Win+X then press A

2. type in the following command

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow

3.Now check by the following command

netsh wlan show settings

 

Happy to help.
