Computer laptop Windows 7 can not find wireless network connections

• My laptop can not find wireless networks

  My laptop can not find wireless connections, that it works fine when I use an Ethernet cable.

  It works on 64-bit windows and has a intel wifi link 1000 series

  The most likely reason is that the wireless card is turned off or disabled.  Most laptops have this feature in order to save battery power if the wifi is not necessary.  Depending on your laptop, it is a physical switch or a combination of the Fn key and one of the F keys.  See your User Guide for more information.

  You can also check the Device Manager (click the ORB start and type Device Manager and then press the Enter key).  Expand the "Network adapters" section by clicking on the arrow to the left and then double-click the entry for the Intel Wifi Link.  Check 'Device status' in the 'General tab '.

  Hi Kate,.

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  I understand that Windows 7 can't find the network and I appreciate the efforts made to try the patches. Let me ask you;

  • Restoring the system led?
  • What exactly happens when you try to connect to the Wi - Fi?

  This could be due to several reasons, including any third party software conflict. Try the following methods and check.

  Method 1: Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network and check if the problem persists. If the problem does not persist in SafeMode with network, put the computer in a clean boot state and check.

  Step 1: Start the computer using safe mode with networking

  Safe mode with networking is an option of troubleshooting for Windows that starts your computer in a limited State. Only basic files and drivers needed to run Windows are started. Safe Mode with networking appears in the corners of your monitor to identify which Windows mode you are using. You can use the internet connection in this mode.

  Please refer to: , start your computer in safe mode

  Step 2: Perform a clean boot in order to avoid any conflict of third party software.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Place your system in the clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. You must follow the steps in the article mentioned below to perform a clean boot.

  How to perform a clean boot in Windows

  Note: see 'How do I reset the computer to start normally after a boot minimum troubleshooting' to reset the computer starts normally after troubleshooting.

  Method 2: Update the network adapter

  Step 1: Update the driver through Device Manager

  a. click Start , type Device Manager and click on it

  b. expand network adapters

  c. make a right click driver, and then click Update driver software

  Step 2: Install the Windows updates pending

  To check the updates:

  1. Open Windows Update by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Update, and then in the list of results, click Windows Update.

  2. In the left pane, click check for updates, and then wait while Windows searches the latest updates for your computer.

  3. If you see a message telling you that important updates are available, or you say to look at the important updates, click the message to view and select the updates to install.

  4. In the list, click the important updates for more information. Select the check boxes for the updates that you want to install and then click OK.

  5. Click install updates.

     Read and accept the terms of the license and then click Finish if the update requires it. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

  Step 3: Visit the computer manufacturer's support Web site and install the latest network for Windows 8 for the same model of device drivers.

• Network management problem, computer laptop Windows 7 will not find other computers on any network, however all other computers on the network can access Windows 7 laptop.

  Basically, the issue I'm having is that my laptop does not connect to any other computer to access the actions or other files.  Other computers on the network can access my computer laptop shares and files without any problems.  Operating system is Windows 7 Home Premium x 64.

  What I tried:

  restarted
  uninstalling and reinstalling the files and printers, sharing maps and restart after completion
  all disabled firewall
  tried with IPv6 enabled and disabled without change, so it is currently enabled
  tried on a Wi - Fi and the differences are listed below in the section work (work is wireless)
  able to ping other comptuers
  access to other computers is permitted by other computers

  problem extends over several networks, IE I noticed it at home last night and the followed problem my laptop at work this morning.
  The problem is slightly different on the two sites.

  At home:
  I can see the other computers on the network, but I am unable to access it, even if I have permission, but other computers can access to my laptop.

  At work:
  Cannot even find other computers on the network but they can find and access my laptop.

  Asked this question in the Windows 7 forum also because the problem was between windows 7 and Vista.

  Hello

  If it has started, you can try a system restore - an update "might" have caused the problem.

  1. try a system restore back to a point before that happened. And immediately thereafter enter
  Control Panel - Windows updates - top left settings and set it to download and informs you instead
  Automatic. Leave it until you are sure that everything is OK and then you can add them one at a time
  to troubleshoot BUT click right on and HIDE all the driver updates. Also stop at day of drivers like below
  and let this value - manually search for drivers when you think you need. (See how and why to)
  stop day of drivers below.)

  I had completely forgotten the system restore!  While looking into the system restore, I found that when I moved into my new House and has cable Internet installed, the cable technology installed a program of comcast on my computer.  This caused me to not be able to connect with other computers.  After rolling back to install it before it works!   Thank you.

• Computer can not find wireless networks

  Hello

  Whenever I restart my computer I have to open the part of the CPU and re services - enable Automatic Configuration Wireless for my computer to recognize networks wireless in the region. After that I then have to go to the Advanced Options in the wireless network connection properties, and then click the "use Windows to configure my wireless network. Then at that time, I can connect to my wireless router.

• Computer laptop Windows 8 can not reset/refresh or update to 8.1

  So 4-5 months ago, I got a new laptop with Windows 8, and everything was working properly until I had a nasty virus that locked my screen after connection, I managed to get rid of the virus, but I think in the process of my anti-virus deleted some system files.

  Since then, the Windows Security Center Service has been disabled, and if I click on turn on I get a screen pop up saying "you cannot start the Windows Security Center service."
  It was a little disturbing, but I don't give much thought but recently I wanted to move to 8.1 and it doesn't give me the error 'your Windows 8.1 installation could not be completed', after trying again 2 times I went to check if I could update and see if it works, it has not, after that I tried to reinstall , but which does not work either...

• Windows search can not find my files

  Even if I indexed all folders on my computer Windows Search can not find something of my music, my pictures, and my videos folders. I checked if they are indexed and they are. I tried rebuilding the index, but it did not help. Does anyone know what may be the problem?

  Problem solved. One of my programs has changed the use of the search bar for "do not search" menu properties taskbar and start, I have no idea why.

  PROBLEM SOLVED

  I struggled with the same problem for a few hours. Finally, I discovered that:

  If you are looking for a word in a file name, then you must start the search string with an asterisk (wildcard character), in the opposite case, Windows will detect nothing. For example, if you are looking for "cyberdyne" in a file name, then you must look for the two "cyberdyne" and "* cyberdyne.

  If the word you are looking for is at the beginning of the name of the file, or if it is preceded by a dash or a dot, then Windows Explorer is the file without the asterisk.

• HP Photosmart C309a AiO Wireless on and work, can not find the network!

  My printer has stopped printing a couple of days.  It was fine, now it is not.  The blue light wireless radio is turned on, but when I run the network set in place, it works simply and can not find my network.  I ran the network diagnostic and it detects my network, but can't find my printer.  On the test page, it fails on SSID.  I could use some help to get this operational back guys!  Thank you!

  Well, I can't comment officially, but I'm sure that has been discussed in, and design changes avoid this problem.

  Regarding something is through HP, you could call the HP Technical Support and check if you have options to upgrade to a new printer. They should have a list of printers and prices offered as part of the upgrade process. There is no charge to call and check the options you have.

• Windows 7 can not find my file?

  Windows 7 can not find my file?

  The folder is synchronized with Google drive

  I could add 'system' of permissions, but this causes permission errorsI is currently seeking 17000 files manually and it's a pain

  Any way to get Windows 7 to find 'xp style' folders on the fly without all these stories of cataloguing which causes has other "cannot find' bugs even when

  Actually found a solution so for all those who use the Googledrive folder on Windows - you can cut search indexing (uses of data which is not updated on the records of Gdrive) causing Win 7 search "on-the-fly" = a little more slow but even faster that I can read names of 17000 files

  Just open your main Gdrive/Windows folder and choose search & Union Options / folders:

  Always search file names... CHECK

  Index of use which... CHECK

  Ok
