After a certain amount of uptime, the OS is irreversably unable to detect the wireless adapter (MT7921K in this case). I previously "fixed" this by restoring the original Windows 11 install and then installing Debian 12 -- this worked, but I didn't realize long uptimes were the cause and now it has once again stopped working.
I found this askubuntu post but unlike that user, it seems like I have multiple aliases assigned to the mt7921e module. I'm not sure how to solve this problem, and would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Update: I followed the advice in this post and did a 60-second hold on the power button. Upon rebooting there was a "secure boot violation". I disabled secure boot and booted successfully into the desktop to find that my wifi was indeed working. However, my touchpad has stopped working.
Update 2: On the previous boot I had my mouse plugged in during boot. I removed the mouse and rebooted, and after booting the touchpad was recognized and the mouse worked as well.
