Windows 10: Bluetooth capability disappears

My Onn pc has had bluetooth capability since I purchased it in August. Just in the past two months, the bluetooth option has disappeared completely and doesn't show up at all. I have headphones and speakers that have been connected to the pc but it says that I don't have any bluetooth capability on my device. How do I fix this or can it be fixed?

Bluetooth capabilities disappeared

After doing a factory reset, it appears the bluetooth capabilities on my laptop have disappeared. There is no option to turn on bluetooth in the bluetooth and devices menu. In the device manager menu, there is no Bluetooth option. I've tried various things,
such as enabling Bluetooth support services and downloading drivers, but I've not fixed the problem. When I try to troubleshoot Bluetooth, it says that my laptop has no Bluetooth capabilities.

Just to be clear, my laptop used to have Bluetooth capabilities, and now it does not.
