    The recent update patch to Windows 10 May 2020 2004 build has the WiFi Icon in the taskbar showing as No Internet.
    This bug may stop other apps from loading.
    The fix for some users has been a registry edit.
    Type regedit in the search box

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NlaSvc\Parameters\Internet

    modify: EnableActiveProbing

    change "Value Data" from "0" to "1"

    restart

    The fix does not work for me.

    On a few of my drives with 64bit 2004 Pro I have the No Internet Icon but I do have internet.

    On another 2004 Pro drive I need to manually connect each bootup.

    BTW,we've had no Intel Wireless ProSet driver update for 2 months.
