    Bose headphones stopped working after October update


    Bluetooth is not detecting my Bose QC 35 headphones after the october update, they were working fine the day before I updated. Bluetooth is still working fine, if I connect any other device, but it is not detecting the headphones. I have reinstalled all the bluetooth drivers but it is still not working.

    Windows Version - 1903 ( OS Build 18362.418 )
