Windows 10: Bluetooth devices don't connect

my pc doesn't want to connect to any of my Bluetooth devices. i checked my windows updates, my drivers and its not my devices fault because they connect to my phone. when i try to add the device it just doesn't find it and it sends my to the Bluetooth troubleshooting but there it says everything is good.

:)

 

Bluetooth is turned on, but I don't have a Bluetooth device

Firstly, I have to say this is more an annoyance / bug rather than something being broken or not working.

In my Action Center the Bluetooth Square is blue (turned on) saying Not Connected.

Here's the thing though - My PC doesn't have any Bluetooth capable hardware components. It's not a laptop, the motherboard doesn't have this functionality, and no devices connected to it have Bluetooth features either.

I've researched online and most suggestions revolve around

• turning Bluetooth off - I can't do as there is no on/off switch in the settings
  
• removing the Bluetooth device from device manager - I also can't do, as there isn't a Bluetooth device listed there.
  
• going into network settings and disabling it there - I can't disable it from network settings as there is no network adapter to do so.
  
• Unpin Bluetooth tile from Quick Actions - It isn't in the quick actions list to add/remove
