How to switch the flight mode in Windows 10

How do you want to use Airplane mode to turn off all wireless signals on your Windows 10 device, you can use the following three methods:

Method 1: Using Hardware Switches

Many hardware devices customized for Windows 10 have hardware switches that turn the airplane mode on or off. Users can use the switch on the device to turn off the wireless signal. But Microsoft said that using hardware switches for different devices may not be able to turn off all wireless communication for the device. Therefore, the best approach is not to use hardware switches directly.

Method 2: Using the Windows 10 Operations Center

The easiest way to switch Windows 10 to Airplane mode is to simply click the notification icon in the taskbar and click on the bottom. The flight mode icon is ready for switching.

Controlling in the Windows 10 Operations Center is the quickest way to switch, which is more reliable than hardware switches. With this switch mode, when the airplane mode is on, the user can see a small airplane icon directly in the taskbar icon.

Turning on a specific network in flight mode

Sometimes, we need to open a particular network with airplane mode turned on. For example, turn on Bluetooth for data transmission in airplane mode. At this point, we can use the above steps to switch control in the Windows 10 settings.

Method 3: Use Windows 10 Settings

If for some reason you don’t see the flight mode switch button in the Action Center, you can also switch directly in the Windows 10 settings. The steps are as follows:

Click on the Start menu - click on Settings - click on the Network and Internet button - click on the Flight Mode tab on the left - you can switch on the options on the right.

What to do if the airplane mode switch is stuck, grayed out or not working

Some users may experience a Windows 10 flight mode switch stuck in a particular situation. Grayed out or not working. At this point, you should first check if the device's physical Wi-Fi switch or button is set to On.

If you have a hardware Wi-Fi switch, please turn it on first. If not, follow the device manual to open the wireless device. A typical notebook is a FN + function key.

For switching problems that may be caused by system problems, you can try to restart the system.

Try to unplug the power, remove the battery, wait a minute or so and then install it to see if it can be restored.

Check the NIC for a yellow flag in the Device Manager and reload the driver if available.

In the registry, set the RadioEnable value device in the following path to 1 and then restart Windows 10
