I can't add External vSwitch on Wi-Fi adapter on Windows 10 Pro 2004. I already tried to remove hyper-v and netcfg -d command after uninstalling hyper-v but it didn't work.
is it a driver issue?

    Hi,

    You could update the driver and firmare for the network adapter. Also check the installed third party applications. A same problem caused by wireshark here

    Yeah, the issue was because of NoxPlayer. Once I uninstalled it, I'm able to add external vSwitch. Thank you.
