My laptop's wireless switch is stuck on the left side for some reason...
It won't even budge when i try to slide it to the right..
It was working like 2 days ago...
Does anyone know how to fix this?

He probably pressed it down (on the mostly left end) and it went down slanted and slid under the casing.
At least in my imagination.
Just pry it out.

The switch likely just popped off of it's track. Aside from attempting to jiggle it back...
Your probably going to have to take the part of the cover off that is over the switch and re-set it in. Lot of trouble eh? Lol that is one of the reasons I refuse to work on any laptops...

| Could you have left something that might make the switch stick when you took apart your laptop?

Don't force it to the right > it might break.
If you have some money take it to someone who works with computers for a living, They'll open it up and see whats up. They wouldn't charge more than 10$ give it a shot.

For the third time, is this the one you had taken apart recently, or tried to?
