If you are using a laptop, please be aware that many laptops have a switch that can turn your wireless adapter ON/OFF. Sometimes this is a physical hardware switch that can be found on the side of your computer.I tried showing 'hidden files' but the folders still would not. Check to see if there is a keyboard shortcut such as Fn+F8 (the specific F# key for your computer usually shows a little Wi-Fi logo on it).Please make sure it’s in the ‘ON’ position. If you are running Windows 8 or newer, you should also check that you do not have ' Airplane mode' enabled.Make sure the keyboard shortcut isn't disabling your adapter.

Your adapter could be disabled by a BIOS setting if your computer detects Ethernet is in use while connected over WiFi.Is your Wi-Fi adapter used by other software/apps? Looking for an option along the lines of 'Auto LAN/WAN' switching in the BIOS and disabling it might resolve that issue. If you are running any connection management software, such as a 3G or 4G dialer, these may be disabling your Wi-Fi adapter when you are connected to another network.Lastly, if Connectify can't detect your Wi-Fi adapter, it might be because it's part of a network bridge.Removing the bridge will fix the issue.Ĭonnectify Hotspot detected my Wi-Fi adapter, but still doesn't work In this case, you need to make sure you have the latest drivers for your Wi-Fi adapter installed.
