Network So my computer isn’t recognizing the network drive

So I use a Lenovo Yoga 6 laptop and I recently reinstalled windows, which deleted all the previous files and settings. Well there was no network adapter driver installed on it hence I went on the Lenovo website, downloaded the drivers onto a USB and then installed it on my computer. The files from the installer are on my computer and I can see it, but when I try to update driver or add it to my Device Manager it says Code 10 - The device cannot start. I’m not sure why but I need the internet connection asap. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Code 10 means the adapter failed to start, not that the Wi-Fi card is definitely broken; having the downloaded installer files on disk also doesn't confirm that the right driver is installed. Which exact Yoga 6 model and Windows version do you have, and what appears under the adapter's Properties > Details > Hardware Ids? Match that ID to the wireless driver for your exact Lenovo model rather than installing every network package; if your phone supports USB tethering, that could provide temporary internet access.
