  2. Downloaded driverupdate.net and updated all drives
  3. Downloaded from Intel it driver update and installed see image
  4. In cmd Check to see if DNI_DNE is listed but is not see image

In the Windows 10 MCL link, scroll down to the Download link and select Run (not Download).
I uninstalled

WinPcap 4.1.3 is NOT compatible with Windows 10 networking. Uninstall this.
Intel Network connection 21.0.504.0 is the one I am suggesting to reinstall.
Driver Talent by OSToto - what is this? do you know.
Driver Update - if not Dell but rather driverupdate.net, uninstall it.

Reinstalled

Is this Windows 10 Enterprise?  If so, you cannot use the Media Creation Link. I should have asked - sorry.
Window 10 Pro

PS I did not run it from the link send as I couldn't figure out to what you are referring so I used a USB I had created to upgrade in the past to upgrade from Window 7 to Window 10.
I have no idea what you might have done. All the machines I work with are Windows 10 Pro and all can be reinstalled as I suggested above. I have done a bunch of these now, so I am speaking from real experience.

On this machine you have, consider a full backup (check this), format and install Windows 10 fresh.
I apologize for not following your instructions before but now I did a new windows installation with the option of keeping my documents and setting and did not solve.

Is it no other option left than a clean installation without keeping and documents and settings then reinstall all applications? (Hope not)
Would you be OK disabling Kapersky to help troubleshoot this?

It's the only third party filtering protocol you have installed so would be my next choice after the power settings.  

I'm not sure you can independently remove the protocol from your WiFi network card properties without Kapersky treating that as a potential intrusion so you may find you have to remove the whole package.  If that fixes the connection reinstalling it after the WiFi connection is established should be OK - see if they have a newer "Win10 aware" installer (if you don't have Kapersky installed explicitly then this is ZoneAlarm which incorporates the Kapersky NDIS Filter as part of their security package).

Kaspersky released a new version for windows 10, but I still paused it for the time I worked I uninstall and reinstall.

Did the uninstall and reinstall from device management and did not solve the issue.

This is are the steps I took;

From device management right clicked on the wireless card, uninstall driver [note; right after uninstalling, the driver was installed, seams Windows uses their drive instead of the manufactures. and I’ve seen online others saying this, and added that Intel does not plan to release a drive for window 10. on the Intel download link it says “software” not “driver” and this is the only option thy have available for this card Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300 AGN #2 for window 10] Restarted the computer.

Did a manufacture install restarted the computer.

From manufactures software choose the option of uninstall driver, restarted the computer, again installed from manufactures software restarted the computer.
Intel download link it says “software” not “driver” and this is the only option thy have available for this card Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300 AGN #2 for window 10

I have an Intel N-6205 AGN card on my ThinkPad X230 and it has always worked in Windows 10 and is working on this machine as I write this.

You can download and install the ProSet software (18.40.4) and make sure the actual driver is 15.18.0.1

That all works for me.
Still no luck
I have had installed Wireless_19.2.0_PROSet64_Win10, since you specified to use version 18.40.4, I uninstalled it first from device manager but when started installation of 18.40.4 it refused since a newer version is already installed. So I used PROSet to do the uninstallation, then an installation of version 18.40.4

Is the only way to test it by replacing it or is there a test to run before?

I agree that trying a USB Wi-Fi card could be useful. Make sure it is just Wi-Fi and not a cellular card.
I ordered a new card will post update
I connected a wireless USB and same behavior, as soon I turn it on after a second it turns off.

(It installed correctly I see it in the device manager and in the the wifi and network adopter list)

NCP Filter
CommView Network Monitor

These to are missing

See attached

CommView - forget that - that is my packet sniffer
NCP - forget that - that is my VPN.
Sorry to neglect these

Those look fine. I assume you followed Wired with Wireless as there are two lists the same.

Since anything to do with wireless fails, and the obvious fixes do not solve, I suggest you try reinstalling Windows with the Media Creation Link above or back up and reinstall.
I already did a reinstall. are you referring to a clean install without keeping any setting applications and documents? (I am not sure there is such a option)

I monitored event viewer when I start wifi I noticed the following error (each time displays again (see ..times)

The Energy Server Service WILLAMETTE service terminated unexpectedly.  It has done this 1 time(s).
The Energy Server Service WILLAMETTE service terminated unexpectedly.  It has done this 2 time(s).
The Energy Server Service WILLAMETTE service terminated unexpectedly.  It has done this 3 time(s).

The following only happened the first time

The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID
{3185A766-B338-11E4-A71E-12E3F512A338}

Can this be related to the issue?
Energy Server Service WILLAMETTE service

What is this?  I do not see this on my machines. Hard to tell if it is related at this point.
I saw one post that suggests this folder may be created when the "Intel Driver Update Utility" is installed. I do not use this,  If you see this in Programs and Features, try uninstalling it.
I have no word to thank you John for spending so much time effort to solve my issue I highly appreciate it. [in my opinion this has to do with windows anniversary  upgrade since it happened soon after, and online I've seen a lot about this upgrade online even Microsoft agrees they are aware of issues thy or working on, but for does who know Microsoft history (how Bill started Microsoft, How thy took over the internet explorer market and more) it no wonder........
Thank you for the kind comments and I was happy to help you.
