KB5068861 update is breaking WiFi connectivity
After KB5068861 is installed, i lose wifi connectivity. Although the wifi adapter is showing in device manager and shows its working properly, Windows isnt actually seeing it. If i click the little globe (disconnected) symbol bottom right of the screen, wifi icon is missing from the popup box. Uninstalling the update returns the wifi. This happened originally on November 11th when the update was first installed, i ended up having to install a system backup from Backupper to get it back. Unfortunately this update was installed again last night and i lost wifi again, fortunately i was able to just uninstall the update and ive got wifi back. I have now had to hide the update using wushowhide.diagcab.

This is the most reliable fix. You can download this tool directly from Microsoft. It helps you install the latest version of Windows 11, including the new update. When you run it, make sure to choose the option to keep your files and apps. This way, you will not lose any of your data.
