So my laptop was working fine, then suddenly the internet cut off, since then I can't connect to wifi.

I found out that there is no wifi option in the network settings.

After that, I also found out that intel wireless AC- 9560 encountered a code 10 error in device manager.

I checked windows uodupd and it said that there was an update installed today. I tried uninstalling that, and the wifi wifi is still broken.

I had the exact same problem on an Asus gaming laptop. I went into the device manager, disabled the driver, restarted, then went back into device manager and enabled and it worked immediately. Didnt have to go through bios. Good luck.

    Here is what worked for me for Intel wireless ac9560 with Code:10 in Windows 10 I initially tried the following from other sources:

    1. Dsiable/Re-enable device, and with restarts in between. No Luck
    2. Uninstall/Re-install device, and with restarts in between. No Luck
    3. 1 then 2 and Uninstall Intel PROSet/Wireless software, restart then reinstall. No Luck
    4. 3 and updating/Resetting Bios to default. No Luck Windows up to date and Bios both up to date. These method were using the most updated drivers intel has available for download. Now for what worked for me 11th September 2020: Links:
    5. Intel PROSet/Wireless Software, Download the lastest version. Should be a .exe file. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29520/Windows-10-Wi-Fi-Drivers-for-Intel-Wireless-Adapters?product=99446

    Intel Wireless AC9560 Driver, Download the latest version. Should be a .zip containing driver files. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/29816/Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software-and-Drivers-for-IT-Admins?product=99446 Before you proceed make sure your windows and BIOS are up to date, no 100% sure if it will affect the success rate but i had already done this when attempting other solutions i found online. Steps: (May only Need Step 5+6)

    1. Disable device then uninstall via Device Manager (WIN+X then M). If the check box to delete driver data is present check it. Keep Device Manager open.

    Uninstall Intel PROSet/Wireless software via Apps and Features (WIN+X then F). 3. Now Re-install Intel PROSet/Wireless software using the downloaded setup file. 4. Back in Device Manager scan for hardware changes, allow windows to auto install the device. (after this step if you no longer get code:10 you may not need to continue). 5. Extract the contents of the downloaded .zip to its own folder. Once done copy the entire contents of the folder to C:\Windows\System32\drivers. Replacing all files when prompted. 6. Back in Device Manager, R-Click the device and update drivers. >Browse my computer >Let Me Pick >Have disk >Navigate to C:\Windows\System32\drivers >Select file Netwtw08.INF and continue >if prompted about the driver just hit install anyways Once installed your device should be functioning correctly, not all of these steps may need to be carried out but its what worked for me after days of trialing, brain busting and hair pulling out to get my adapter working again.

    How I fixed this:

    1. Connect to the internet using an ethernet cable.
    2. Restart computer with ethernet cable connected and working internet connection.
    3. After restart, I can finally see all of the wireless WiFi connections that are available.
    4. Connect to desired WiFi.
    5. Disconnect ethernet cable, and connection should still be good.
