- I've run all the troubleshooters in windows
Reset the network settings
Turned off power saving on the wireless adapter
Disabled the wireless adapter and reenable the adapter
Reinstalled the drivers from both windows update and from the manufacturer
Downgraded to windows 10
Reinstalled Windows all together
This one is puzzling even after the reinstall still nothing Help

Agreed with @owen.
If it's USB then it's likely dead. Most of the older USB ones die over time - actually heat related. If it's onboard or a card - then it could be a slot issue. Check with a Linux distro as suggested or WinPE to ensure it's actually dead.
Knowing the solution doesn't mean knowing the method. Yet answering correctly and regurgitation are considered "learning" and "knowledge".
