Spent hours trying to solve this dam problem after freshly installing Win 10 from USB (2021). 

 

There is a thread within this site which attempted to solve this problem but without success.

[QUOTE=razrh;528046]Resetting the BIOS by removing the RTC battery from the motherboard did the trick! :D[/QUOTE]

 

"Resetting the BIOS " from F10 boot screen. 

 

Updating drivers and blar blar blar wont help - reset the factory BIOS and boom WiFi will turn on!!

 

Hopefully another poor searching soul will find this solution.
