    Bluetooth has disappeared


    Ok so I have followed as many help articles as I can with no success, so here goes. I had been using Bluetooth on my PC perfectly well for a while, then came a Windows update, now Bluetooth has disappeared, and not just from settings, also from device manager yes I have shown hidden devices. The intriguing thing is that when I went to install the manufacturer's drivers it said that more up-to-date drivers had already been installed so this wasn't possible. Now as I said, there are no drivers showing anywhere in device manager, so the best I could think of was to find the most up-to-date driv

    No bluetooth after system restore

    Thank you for your reply.

    I mean I have used a Windows system restore point. I tried restoring bluetooth with commands in CMD (sfc/scannow; DISM /Online.....) and by updating and uninstalling devices in the device manager. Update did not work. Uninstalling bluetooth devices made Bluetooth disappear out of the hidden devices list.
    All my steps I took worked but did not change anything in my bluetooth device list.

    I am using the bluetooth of my mainboard. MSI Z370M Gaming Pro AC
    My guess would be, that disabling the bluetooth network adapter before using a system restore point, disabled Bluetooth after using the system restore point.

    In the device manager I get this message in the USB Device list for a unknown USB Device:
    Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
    A request for the USB device descriptor failed.

    Hi,

    This issue occurrs when the data in the registry for the device is corrupted or misconfigured. One other cause may be due to an outdated device driver. To sort this concern, we suggest you uninstall and reinstall the Bluetooth drivers with the steps provided
