No button for bluetooth in action center

Joe,

Assuming that you have a Bluetooth card, run these checks -

Do you have a Bluetooth entry in Settings, Devices?



If not then Windows does not think you have a Bluetooth card. Check Device manager for a Bluetooth group.

1. If neither of these is there then you do not have a Bluetooth card or you have disabled Bluetooth in the BIOS. You should check your BIOS for a relevant entry but BIOSes vary so I cannot suggest where such a setting might be. You could seek advice from your computer maker or their user forum.
2. If one is there but not the other then you might be able to get it working correctly by reinstalling the driver from your Computer / Bluetooth card maker's website.

You can customise the items shown in Action center but Bluetooth, if it is enabled, is generally put there by default. As explained above, you can customise what is shown by playing around with Settings, System, Notifications. You can add more entries or you can drag off existing entries or you can drag existing entries around to get them in the layout you prefer.

Relocating buttons in the Action Center

I appreciate the response but I do not see that this has resolved the issue. The only result from following these instructions was that the icon for the notifications changed. I still have the same issue that if you try to open the action center and if you
have to click more than one time, many times you will end up clicking the Airplane mode button and then you lose all connectivity. This is especially frustrating because I use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

Again, I think it would be much better if you could rearrange the order of the buttons in the action center, OR if you could place a lock on the airplane mode. If a lock were placed on the button, it would require an additional password which would prevent
the accidental pushing of this button.
