    Accidentally uninstalled my Bluetooth driver


    Here are the series of events that happened.


    1. My bluetooth headset, stopped working while being connected. I opened Bluetooth and tried to disconnect it, but it wouldn't and instead showed " cannot disconnect device".


    2. So I promptly turned off bluetooth and closed settings, but when I opened it back up, I could not find my Bluetooth on/off toggle.


    3. I troubleshooted Bluetooth, it showed " Bluetooth radio unavailable/not foundI'm not sure". So I decided to next try uninstalling and reinstalling my driver.


    4.Here is where things went out of track, I went into Device Manager and clicked uninstall on the only Bluetooth Driver Intel_Wireless Device.... As soon as I did that, it asked me to reboot , and I gave okay. After restarting, there is no Bluetooth tab in my device manager. I have no clue how to proceed further.


    Here are my device specifications


    Model: Dell LATITUDE E5440

    OS: Windows 10, 64 Bit.

    :)

  2. How do you uninstall chipset drivers?

    I'm installing a new mobo so I need to uninstall the intel 865g drivers to make way for the P35 drivers.

    Can't find any uninstall options in add/remove programs and intel chipset inst listed in driver cleaner.

    Any suggestions? *Confused Accidentally uninstalled my Bluetooth driver :confused:

  3. Accidentally uninstalled bluetooth

    In an effort to repair my Bluetooth connection after updating Windows 10, I accidentally uninstalled Bluetooth. Now everything says the computer is not Bluetooth capable. I have already downloaded the manufacturer (HP) driver and tried to install, but
    Bluetooth is uninstalled so the driver won't update. Is there a way to reinstall Bluetooth without having to reinstall Windows 10?

    Accidentally uninstalled my Bluetooth driver

    Accidentally uninstalled Bluetooth driver

    Today my Bluetooth headphones suddenly stopped working. After I tried to troubleshoot myself, bluetooth is no longer appearing in the device manager. Here is what happened.



    - My toggle button for Bluetooth in “Bluetooth and other devices” disappeared and all the devices said “Bluetooth is turned off”



    - I began troubleshooting myself, tried restarting my computer (Dell Inspiron 3583), updating the drivers in device manager.



    - Went to Dell’s website and downloaded the driver, ran it, and restarted my pc.



    - While trying to fix the problem, I accidentally uninstalled my bluetooth driver (Qualcomm QCA9377) in device manager (right click, uninstall)



    - Tried (windows key+R> services.msc> bluetooth support service > restart; bluetooth support service> properties> automatic >OK)



    - Tried going through (Troubleshoot> bluetooth > Run the troubleshooter > Device does not have bluetooth> Check bluetooth capability detected)



    - I reset my laptop (Dell Inspiron 3583) and kept the files, as a last resort to try to fix the problem and I still have no bluetooth in Device Manager (or bluetooth button). (After
    resetting I went back and tried all the things I mentioned above again)



    - I notice in device manager that under my USB tab, there is an “Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed). But I do not know if that is the same issue. I also went in
    and tried updating all my USB drivers (including that one).



    I caught a screenshot of me uninstalling the bluetooth driver, right when I realized I was accidentally uninstalling it.
