I installed Windows 8.1 build 9471 into my desktop. I use a TP Link TL-WN781ND wireless adapter to access my home network and the internet. I tried copying the drivers from Windows/System32/Drivres and installing them manually, I also downloaded the exe from the site but they still wouldnt connect. It would just say no connections found.
Any Ideas?

It's fixed my internet more than a few times.
Delete the driver from the device manager.
Restart your computer. If windows doesn't reinstall it, you can reinstall it.

If there is a .inf file in the drivers you downloaded right click on it and install it that way
