Yesterday, I turned on my laptop to find out that I couldn't connect to any wifi networks. Every time I try looking for networks it says "No networks found". I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling my network adapters but that has not helped. I could connect to any network before yesterday. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Restart your router.
Restart the laptop.
Look at laptop for a switch on the body, that turns off the radio for the wifi or bluetooth.

Did you switch the band the laptop connects with? (5ghz or 2.4)

I don't understand what you mean from the last bit of your response?

Assuming you have N or AC, you can adjust the driver settings to allow dual band, or single band, and if its single band, you could have switched it to 5ghz and maybe there are no APs in range.

Do you have a physical switch for the wireless radio on your laptop?

There is no switch on my laptop, as far as I'm aware. And how might I adjust the driver settings?
(Sorry for not responding for a while.)
