Hello, a few days ago I accidently hit the wifi key on my laptop when I ment to hit the prt sc key which of course turned the wifi off. I tried pressing the key again but it doesn't work, all it does is turn on/off the airplane mode. I tried searching other places but couldn't find anything. My computer is a HP ENVY. I've tried everything! pressing fn and f2 that did nothing, I tried going to my network devices and enabling the Wi-Fi reader thing but that wasn't there. I've tried turning on the download over metered connections and restarting my computer and then turning it off and STILL the wireless/wi-fi won't appear. I've done all the things people keep suggesting on other pages but it seems nothing works for me... Please help!!

Open the Device Manager within Windows and make sure that all your devices are enabled and working properly. If something is missing that should be there right click on Network Devices and click scan for new hardware. That should detect the missing drivers.
