Wifi Networks Not Being Remembered/Auto Connected - Windows 10 Home
Hi all,
Quick stats:
Windows 10 Home, with all Windows updates installed. Running it on Bootcamp on a new Macbook Air, but I've been doing that on my old Macbook Air since Windows 10 was released and never encountered this problem.
Long story short:
- Computer won't remember/auto log into any WiFi networks after restart
- When I click 'Manage Known Networks' in the Settings app, nothing appears (screenshot attached)
- When I click Properties on a network I am connected to, no options appear (screenshot attached)
- Computer has great problems finding and connecting to mobile hotspots (works maybe 1 out of 5 times - never experienced this before)
Things I have tried:
- Resetting wireless adaptor
- Uninstalling network adaptor, rebooting, and scanning for changes so driver is re-installed (Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adaptor)
- Running System File Checker (no effect), running CHKDSK (no errors found)
I'm really at a loss as to what to do from here. Any advice would be great - it's not so bad when I'm at home (just typing in my own password is easy to remember), but it's a real pain when traveling/trying to connect to mobile hotspots.
Greatly appreciate any advice - thanks for reading!
