Wifi problem after Windows 10 update 1511 build 10586(November Update)

I recentely updated my windows 10 Home (which I upgraded from Windows 7 Home Basic). One week after the update I once turned the Airplane Mode on and off. Since then I am not able to on my WiFi. When I ran the troubleshooter for this issue, It showed "wireless capability is turned off ". Here are few screenshots.

I have tried restarting my PC and after a few restarts WiFi/Internet Option is missing from the Taskbar. I have even tried updating the Driver software and it is up to date. 

I think it is one the bug from the November Update and I hope somebody wil come up with a working solution.

Thank You.

Answer

Can you run the following from a command prompt (Windows Key + R , cmd.exe)

netsh wlan show interface

and paste the output

There is 1 interface on the system:
    Name                   : Wi-Fi
    Description            : Intel(R) Dual Band Wireless-AC 7265
    GUID                   : e0991a9e-a54f-4337-b797-b41baf390e01
    Physical address       : 34:02:86:88:61:f7
    State                  : disconnected
    Radio status           : Hardware On
                             Software Off

    Hosted network status  : Not available

Also, please check for a switch or button combo on the laptop that controls wifi and attempt to toggle it.

Thanks,

Tripp
