Modify the Network Adapter Properties

1. Use Windows shortcut keys Win + X (or right click the Start menu) and select Device Manager from the menu.

2. Expand the Network adapters, right click on the network adapter of you device and select Properties.

3. Select Power Management tab from the pop-up dialog box and uncheck the item Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.

4. Click OK to save the changes.

or Disable Non-Microsoft Services

Some programs or services can affect the Windows 10 airplane mode. You could try to disable some non-Microsoft services to fix the issue. If you happen to know the program, disable it directly. If not, it may take your time to figure it out.

1. Use Windows shortcut keys Win + R to launch Run.

2. Type msconfig into the box and press Enter.

3. Select the Service tab, check Hide all Microsoft services and click the button Disable. Then click Apply.

4. Select the Startup tab, click Open Task Manager.

5. Select Startup tab from the new pop-up dialog and disable all the startup items.

You need to reboot the computer and re-enable the services you’ve disabled one by one to find out the problematic services or programs that result in the Windows 10 airplane mode error. Once you figure them out, disable them again.

or Update or Reinstall the Network Adapter Drivers

Problematic drivers can bring about Windows 10 airplane mode errors and other Windows 10 issues, so it is necessary to fix the network adapter drivers on Windows 10.
