I accidentally installed some malware and ended up reinstalling Windows 11 using a USB drive. Now, during the WiFi setup, it only shows the Ethernet connection. I've tried installing the drivers for my motherboard (MSI Pro B650 WiFi-P) but encountered errors saying that the wizard couldn't extract the files or find a compatible version. I'd really appreciate any guidance on how to get my WiFi working again. If you need more details, let me know!

Just a heads up, making changes in the BIOS or messing around with disk setups can lead to data loss, so make sure you have backups of your important files!
First, try connecting your PC to the internet via a wired connection (Ethernet), if you have the cable. Once you're connected, go to Windows Update. It might automatically fetch the right drivers for your WiFi card, which could solve the issue. But if you don't have an Ethernet cable, let me know, and we can explore other options.
Thanks for the reminder about backups! I'll make sure to check that before I change anything.
