Hi all,

Every Windows user has one problem that took way too long to fix...

I would like to hear yours:

What was the problem?

What did you try that did not work?

What finally fixed it?

Please mention your Windows version if you can. I think this thread could become a useful list for people searching for the same issue.

On Windows 11 my Wi-Fi kept dropping every time the laptop woke from sleep, and it drove me mad for weeks. I tried reinstalling the driver and forgetting the network, and neither of those stuck. What finally fixed it was going into Device Manager, opening the Wi-Fi adapter's Power Management tab, and unchecking the box that lets Windows turn the device off to save power.
