Changing radio status of Wi-Fi software in windows 10 via command prompt or powershall

Question

When we search on internet about how to turn on wifi using command prompt all solutions are about how to disable WLAN adapter which can be simply achieved by netsh command but what I was looking for is how to turn on or off my wifi without disabling network adapter. After some digging what I found is this In both cases wifi adaptor is enabled When we run Netsh WLAN show interface while wifi is on we get this

There is 1 interface on the system:

    Name                   : Wi-Fi
    Description            : Qualcomm Atheros AR956x Wireless Network Adapter
    GUID                   : e1e71fab-3a91-4b36-a65b-2c68239b729f
    Physical address       : 24:fd:52:af:76:92
    State                  : disconnected
    Radio status           : Hardware On
                             Software On

    Hosted network status  : Not started```. 

But when wifi is off same command gives this. 

```netsh wlan>show interface

There is 1 interface on the system:

    Name                   : Wi-Fi
    Description            : Qualcomm Atheros AR956x Wireless Network Adapter
    GUID                   : e1e71fab-3a91-4b36-a65b-2c68239b729f
    Physical address       : 24:fd:52:af:76:92
    State                  : disconnected
    Radio status           : Hardware On
                             Software Off

    Hosted network status  :Not started```

So what I want is to change this radio status of software via command prompt or powershall
Please help me guys.

Answer 1

These are the commands which worked in command prompt

Check radio status(no admin privileges required)

powershell Get-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty -Name "Wi-Fi" -AllProperties -RegistryKeyword "radioEnable"

To turn radio on (run as administrator)

powershell Set-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty -Name "Wi-Fi" -AllProperties -RegistryKeyword "radioEnable" -RegistryValue "1"

To turn radio off (run as administrator)

powershell Set-NetAdapterAdvancedProperty -Name "Wi-Fi" -AllProperties -RegistryKeyword "radioEnable" -RegistryValue "0"

to use these commands in powershell just remove powershell from beginning
