For whatever reason my Wifi on my laptop will simply not connect. It was working fine a couple of days ago and now this. I'll list stuff that I hope will help you guys figure it out with me. I'm srsly thinking about a fauctly reset with files intact, because this problem is annoying. I have a "Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz".
I've been doing my research and now I'm asking the internet.
More info on my problem: For whatever reason it is called Wifi 3 and I'm unable to connected to the Wifi to access internet.
My wifi dongles like Netgear will get me connected though to the internet.
Error: Network security key isn't correct.
99% sure the Network key is correct. "

Stuck on verifying and connecting.

It is able to find Wifi, but is stuck on "connecting" and simply won't connect resulting in no internet.
Here's what I've done.
Soon as I noticed that symbol that means I'm not connect to Wifi I did a system restore to when it Wifi did work. Then Wifi seemed fixed only to it revert back.
Then I figured something must be up with the driver. Rolling Back Driver seemed to work and I decided that I needed to install any Windows updates my laptop needed while Wifi was good again.
I installed whatever Windows Update in settings found which resulted in turning off my system restore and deleting any restores I've created when Wifi was working. Great.
Again I decided to play with the driver. I'd look on my desktop that had working Wifi, download drivers, copy to to usb to paste on my laptop in attempt to fix internet.
Download Intel® Wireless Bluetooth® for Windows® 10
The install was sucessfull, but still no Wifi. Wondering if I'm even installing the right drivers and stuff.
I have pictures of Network adapters which I will include here. I notice the install seemd to brought my "Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 160MHz" up to date somewhat.
It's Driver Date is 9/6/2020 and Driver version is 21.120.2.1
However the other two devices listed in "Network Adapters" (in pictures), which are "Bluetooth device (PAN) #2" and "Realtek Gaming Gbe Family controller" are unchanged and outdated. Because they are outdated I'm wondering if its why I'm having internet problems. Also, idk what are all these WAN minports ever are.
When I try diagnose and troubleshoot options a lot of the times Windows cannot find a reasong and or it informs me an "ethernet cable" is not plugged in. I dont' use ethernet cables for my internet and fail to see why that matters.
I'll put my most suspected reasons and doubtful why I'm having problems.
Suspected reasons why I'm having this Wifi trouble
------------------
Doubtful reasons
--------
1.My laptop has some kind of spyware
2.Airplan mode is turn on
3. The router being part of the problem
4. I'm typing in the wrong pass keys to connect to pass protected Wifi.

Suspected reasons why I'm having this Wifi trouble
------------------
I messed with the settings, forgot what I did, the ethernet cable error could be blame
Despite the laptop not being that old, the hardware for wifi without a dongle has died.
I've overlooked something and unable to think of it currently.
I haven't installed the correct drivers for proper network.
