I agree though, with you, that the "data" directory where the Wi-Fi
connections XML file is stored is inaccessible since Android 11
(according to the information on XDA Developers when I asked for you).

But this is Android 7.

 I assume you tried copying it already when I gave the commands necessary.

16:44:31 D:\Temp>C:\Programs\Samsung\platform-tools\adb.exe root
16:45:56 D:\Temp>C:\Programs\Samsung\platform-tools\adb.exe pull /data/misc/apexdata/com.android.wifi/WifiConfigStore.xml
adb: error: remote object '/data/misc/apexdata/com.android.wifi/WifiConfigStore.xml' does not exist
16:46:09 D:\Temp>
There is a data directory visible in explorer under ...
   /Internal storage/Android
... but adding that to the beginning of the path makes no odds, and in fact trying to pull a file that I know exists, because I can see it in Explorer, also fails:
16:54:31 D:\Temp>C:\Programs\Samsung\platform-tools\adb.exe pull "/Internal storage/Android/data/com.android.systemui/cache/lockscreen_capture_land.png"
adb: error: remote object '/Internal storage/Android/data/com.android.systemui/cache/lockscreen_capture_land.png' does not exist
Make of that what you will, remembering that I don't believe this device is rooted, although the adb root command seemed to work.
