What is the error message you get on your Windows 7 laptop when you try to connect to the Windows 10 mobile hotspot? Post a screenshot. Can the Windows 7 laptop connect to other Wi-Fi networks?

Hi,
try resetting network connections on windows 7:
Open PowerShell or CMD and run as administrator, copy and paste the following commands by pressing enter at the end of each command line:
netsh winsock reset
netsh int ip reset
netsh advfirewall reset
ipconfig /flushdns
Restart the computer at the end of all commands.
Can other devices in the house connect to the Windows 10 mobile hotspot? Specify the exact model of the Windows 7 wireless adapter.
yea, other devices(2 android phones) can connect to the win 10 wifi hotspot.
