After upgrading to Windows 10, there is a driver conflict with the Xiaomi portable Wi-Fi device

After today's system update, the Xiaomi Portable WiFi driver is conflicting with Windows 10. I have to uninstall the driver to connect to the internet normally; otherwise, I can't access the network. What's causing this? How can I fix it?

    The driver installed might be outdated or corrupted, especially if it’s not officially supported or not updated for the latest Windows version.

    This method works because the Xiaomi Portable WiFi uses a standard MediaTek wireless chip. By forcing Windows to use a generic driver meant for that chip, you bypass the broken Xiaomi software entirely.
