If I go to stettings -> Network & Internet -> Wi-Fi I can do whatever and it all works.
The task bar Wi-Fi, however is having issues and not the simple obvious ones that I can find tutorial for.
First, the taskbar Wi-Fi icon is present, its not missing which is what most of the tutorials are for that I can find.
Second, the Wi-Fi icon on the task bar also toggles correctly, I can turn the Wi-Fi off and on, and connect from inside the Settings app and the Wi-Fi icon on the task bar does update and show the correct state of things.
However, if I click on the Wi-Fi icon in the task bar, while it pulls up the task bar menu correctly, and inside the menu it shows the correct status and correct network if I am connected to one, clicking on that to try and adjust anything just closes this menu as if I had clicked elsewhere on the desktop instead of in the menu.
Testing now, it looks like right-click on the Wi-Fi icon and then select "Network and & Internet services" it does actually call up the correct setting windows, so I am less annoyed by the issue now, but right before making this post, that did not work, which is why I started writing this.
I am guessing it is a services issue, as I like to turn off as many of those as I don't need and once in a while overstep my bounds by a service here or there. Does anyone know what service that might be, or other issue if not a service?
