Hi @khushpreet0001,

 

As  @Rainbow23, is out of office for the day, I am jumping in to assist you here. If the wifi is working fine and you are able to connect to the network and go online with this notebook, then the wifi key which is usually the F12 key on most modern HP notebooks is faulty, or not lit. If it is not lit or does not work does not work, then it is a physical issue with that key. 

 

I would request you to contact Hp phone support to get the situation corrected. Steps to contact Hp phone support:

Step 1. Open link: www.hp.com/contacthp/

Step 2. Enter Product number or select to auto detect

Step 3. Scroll down to "Still need help? Complete the form to select your contact options"

Step 4. Scroll down and click: HP contact options - click on Get phone number, Case number and phone number appear.

They will be happy to assist you immediately.

 

If the unit is under warranty, the manufacturer’s warranty should take care of it for you.

Hope this helps.   I genuinely hope the issue gets resolved without hassles and the unit works great. 🙂  Please reach out for any issues and I'll always be there to assist you. 🙂

 

 To simply say thanksplease click the "Thumbs Up" button to give me a Kudos to appreciate my efforts to help.

  this helps, please mark this as “Accepted Solution” as it will help several others with the same issue to get it resolved without hassles. 🙂 

 

Take care now and have a splendid week ahead. 🙂
