Hello, I've just set up my computer and installed windows, I'm using the <B650M Mortar WiFi> for my motherboard which has in built WiFi but i cant seem to find the WiFi settings anywhere on windows. 
I proceeded to then

  1. flashed/update my bios and updated the driver from https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B650M-MORTAR-WIFI/support#bios
  2. Downloaded an intel WiFi driver from https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/download/19351/windows-10-and-windows-11-wi-fi-drivers-for-intel-wireless-adapters.html
  3. I checked if my WiFi module was enabled in the bios (it was) 
  4. ALso in adapter settings i tried finding the WiFi to enable but it was nowhere to be seen D:

But still I cannot seem to find the WiFi settings anywhere in windows. Help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Download the NIC drivers (ethernet and AMD WiFi) from MSI for the board, not Intel.

The spec page just says AMD WiFi so it's likely not Intel so that explains why Intel drivers didn't do anything.

Where do i find these drivers? Is it the ones from https://www.msi.com/Motherboard/MAG-B650M-MORTAR-WIFI/support#bios? If so i already have them installed, in particular the 'System & Chipset Drivers'
