Used to be Windows 10, came down installed Windows 7, when I type in the search for my model information is provided only as a driver on Windows 7 and not Windows 10. And there is completely different.
Answer
Hello. Installing the Wi-Fi adapter driver on Windows 7 is no different. But in your case, the problem is that the manufacturer has not released a driver for Windows 7 for Acer Aspire E5-521G-8022 laptop. I looked on Acer’s website, there is a driver only for Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.
In your case I would install Windows 10. After all, the manufacturer recommends this system. And everything should work well on it.
If you want to keep Windows 7, you can try to find a driver for the Wi-Fi module by hardware ID. I mean the adapter, which is most likely displayed in Device Manager on the “Other Devices” tab.
