same issue here, with a Dell Latitude 5510 with a Intel Wi-Fi 6 AX201 network card...

Get-WiFiInterfaceGuid : Wi-Fi interface not found on the system.

I had the same issue, mine was named 'Wi-Fi 2' since i moved this system drive from old hardware.
The Adapter name is hard coded in the module so my options were to change the code or the name of the interface.

1. The former can be done here but breaks if the module is updated:
   C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\wifiprofilemanagement\1.0.0.0\WiFiProfileManagement.psm1:112 char:22

2. The latter required me to go into devmgmt.msc , activate View -> Show hidden devices
   and delete the old adapter, this way renaming the current one from 'Wi-Fi 2' to 'Wi-Fi' went without error.

Hope this helps someone. :)
