If Windows cannot find one, right-click the device again and select Uninstall device.

Sometimes, a driver download doesn't come with an installer. Instead, it might be a folder full of files. Open Device Manager and right-click your network adapter. Select Update driver. Choose Browse my computer for drivers.

On a working computer, go to the website of your computer manufacturer (like Dell, HP, or Lenovo) or the motherboard manufacturer (like ASUS or MSI). Go to the Support or Drivers section. Enter your computer’s model number or serial number.

The easiest way to install a network driver is to let Windows do the work for you. Microsoft maintains a massive library of drivers that are tested for compatibility.

Click Browse and select the folder where you extracted the driver files.

By following these steps, you can resolve most connectivity issues and ensure your network adapter is performing at its full potential.
