In Start Search box type devmgmt.msc  and hit the Enter key to open Device Manager > Expand Network adapters > Locate WiFi adapter > Right click on it to  uninstall > Reboot > Let OS detect the hardware > Get connected with the internet and update the WiFi driver from the website of the manufacturer or via Windows Update.

Also update BIOS and Chipset drivers from the manufacturer.

Hi,

Firstly notice your laptop keyboard settings, in general, Toshiba laptop users use F12 to enabled/disabled Airplane mode.

After this, go to start menu, search up "brightness", click on adjust screen brightness

On the side you will see "Panel Open-Power On" click on that. Go to keyboard tabcheck the option that says "Standard F1~F12 mode", then it'll say that you have to restart computer click yes to restart now or restart later

In addition, please refer to this link for a hint.
