Welcome to the forums 
In Linux everything is possible you can also try
sudo update-grub
or first
garuda-update
May it is better you start with a linux for new comers, like MX Linux.
We do not teach new linux users and dual boot with M$ is not supported by the Garuda Team.

I would recommend disabling fast boot on Windows.
I would also recommend resetting your bios to the factory default if my prior suggestion is of no improvement. You will likely need to modify your BIOS settings for use with Linux after resetting your bios. Be sure both secure boot and fast boot are disabled in the BIOS. Also be sure your controller is set to AHCI mode in your BIOS.
I would also suggest testing out the linux-lts kernel as your hardware is rather old. Testing other kernels may also be helpful to get your wifi working.
Please run these commands:
sudo ip link set dev wlp3s0 up
rfkill list
Please post both the inputs and output of those commands.
