N600 Wifi Adapter Not Working

Hello Community,

I have an N600 USB adapter that isn't working since this most recent Windows update, OS Name: Microsoft Windows 10 Home, OS Version: 10.0.19042 N/A Build 19042.  Is anyone experiencing the same problems?  I've tried all the obvious things.  The adapter is detected, I just can't select it for the connection.

Worked fine until a windows update borked it? 

Have you tried uninstalling it through windows, rebooting windows, and then doing a clean install?

I tried the "Reinstall/Update" option before doing a complete "Uninstall" from the Netgear Genie app in the Start menu.  (Funny, I picked "Uninstall" and it gave me two choices.)  The reinstall worked.  I should've thought of that.  Good suggestion.  Thanks for your help!
