In the past I have had regular issues due to my fat fingers which touched the Wi-Fi off button on my keyboard. At that time I have not noticed that the issue has been me :-). There is a directory /var/lib/systemd/rfkill/ which holds a file named by the Wi-Fi device. Here it is pci-0000:04:00.0:wlan. The content is just a 0 for normal operation or 1 for Wi-Fi off which means RF_Kill. Please check that file on your system and replace a possible 1 by a 0. There might be a better method involving systemd to achieve the same. But I am not aware of that. There is also a configuration bit whether to enable Wi-Fi after reboot or to keep the previous setting. But I do not remember the details right now.
