Hi @puroshottommeen,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

I’ll be happy to help you get the Wi-Fi option back on your HP Notebook. To make sure we provide the correct steps for your system, could you please confirm a few details?

  • What is the exact HP Notebook model?
  • Which Windows version are you using (for example, Windows 10 or Windows 11)?
  • Is the Wi-Fi icon completely missing from the taskbar, or does it appear but show that no networks are available?
  • Can you see the Wi-Fi/Wireless adapter under Device Manager > Network adapters? If yes, please share its name and whether it has a yellow warning mark.
  • Did the Wi-Fi option disappear after a Windows update, driver update, or system reset, or did it happen suddenly?

If possible, please also share a photo/screenshot of the Windows taskbar and the Network/Internet settings page. This will help us see exactly what you're experiencing and guide you with the appropriate HP troubleshooting steps.

 

Take care and have an amazing day!

I'm an HP Employee.
