Failed to switch wireless network adapter

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Hi,
I just installed the wireless PCI express adapter on a HP Pavilion desktop (didn’t come with wireless adapter). The PCI appears on the device manager and all info there says is working fine.
I also installed the TP-Link wireless configuration utility. But when I choose the model on the advance configuration utility it says “Failed to switch wireless network adapter”.
Also the PCI does not appear on the network connections, meaning that the wireless is not working. Also no wireless icon appears on the bottom left corner of the screen.
Could you please help me out on this?

What's the model number of wireless adapter and operating system of your PC?
Maybe the following guide will help.

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback!
I just try what you said but it didn't work out. First I had usb TL-WN722N which worked fine. Now I installed the PCI Express Adapter TL-WN881ND and I'm experiencing described problem. I'm using Windows10.

The utiity cannot be running properly on Windows 10.
TL-WN881ND is plug and play on Windows 10 and you can try to connect Wi-Fi using Windows built-in utility.

Do you have a nice and Sexy Cars? How a car becomes nice and cute? Innovative style plays a massive role in making a hot car awesome or more appealing. There are nice cars out there such as Ford-Mustang-Bullitt-(Summer 2019), Aston-Martin-DB11, Maserati-GranTurismo, Porsche-718-Boxster, and others.
