Summary
Steps to disable the fast startup mode of Windows* to use the wireless card with Linux* OS.
Description

Resolution
This may be a problem with fast startup mode of Windows. Windows keeps the wireless adapter for itself when the system shut down, hence Linux cannot detect it.
To disable the fast startup:
- Go into Settings
- Select Power & Sleep
- Choose power button > Shut down setting > uncheck the Turn on fast startup > save change
