If using Kali or any other OS in a VM like virtual box or VMWare, or using the Windows Subsystem for Linux on windows, this is expected behaviour, as the host OS is already using the WiFi adapter so it cannot then be used by the guest operating system at the same time. You just get a bridged Ethernet connection on the guest instead.

If it is a bare metal install, running directly on the PC hardware, then if WiFi doesn't work, you have a driver issue. To correct a driver issue, you need to look at your WiFi chipset for the needed info.
