I'm having major issues with my Windows 11 laptop since the latest update. Here's what's going wrong:
1. The WiFi tile is gone from quick settings, so I have no internet.
2. I can't open the Start menu, and if I press the Windows button too much, my home screen crashes.
3. I can't access the settings app – even the command line doesn't help; it's stuck loading.
4. I can't connect to the internet using command prompt; it just hangs on execution.
5. Some apps are acting weirdly; for example, the Run UI won't show until I type something, the command prompt is super slow, and other apps like Surfshark and my g++ compiler won't launch at all.
I'm unable to check my current KB update because I don't have wmic installed, and I can't install it without internet. Plus, the winver command just brings up a black window. I really need to uninstall this update because my PC is essentially unusable. Is there any way to fix these issues without rolling back the update?

I've been through this too! Try uninstalling the WiFi driver from Device Manager and then restart your laptop. This worked for me – might help with other issues too!
Does this fix the Start menu and settings problems as well?
