To be more specific. I started up the computer with the wifi off.
Running "rfkill list" showed the following:
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
After clicking the wifi button "rfkill list" shows:
0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
So it appears that the issue with "Hard blocked" remaining after
clicking the wifi button has been resolved.
