I have an ASUS PC Model X509JB, the WiFi was working fine until last week, during installation of an update it said that the update could not be installed and it rolled back the update (Security update for Microsoft Windows (KB5008212), but after a day or two I started encountering a problem with the WiFi.
Both the Bluetooth and the network driver shows a code 56 error and has a yellow triangle on them.
After some research I found out that this is associated with a VPN software, but I never installed any VPN app, I had a virtual machine a while ago and I deleted it before the problem started appearing.
The wireless adapter in network connection window has disappeared and is now empty.
What I tried:
- Network reset.
- Troubleshooting the network doesn't show any options.
- I tried deleting the updates that installed recently, one of them got deleted and the other update shows "an error has occurred. Not all updates were successfully uninstalled" while uninstalling.
- Resetting the Winsock.
- Deleting the network driver and reinstalling it.
Note that the Bluetooth is working fine even though it shows that error unlike the network.
