I have two partions in my desktop, one with Manjaro and other with Windows 10.
My wi-fi adapter is always off when I start Manjaro, this only happens when I switch back from Windows, then I have to manually remove from my case and plug it in again.
My computer:
Kenel: 5.4.159-1 Manjaro 64 bits (although that also happens in 5.10)
KDE Plasma: 5.23.3
CPU: i5-8400
8 RAM
I remember a few months ago I did not have that problem in Manjaro and also I would like to preserve the settings in Windows ( it is always good to have that fast startup).
Is it any way to have the wi-fi always on without modifying Windows?
it should be possible as I said in the past Manjaro always used to turn on the wi-fi device.
