Bluetooth driver keeps popping up. Can't turn off or on

Hi,

I can't connect with any bluetooth device with my PC for 2 weeks now. I wanted to just turn off bluetooth. Turns out there's no button there anymore. Also in the "quick options" (bottom right in the taskbar, don't know how to call this )

Thought maybe windows 11 will fix it automatically. Unfortunately didn't work.

Here's what I already tried:

• Unistalling the bluetooth driver in the device manager. Also didn't work, but windows recognizes a problem with it
  
  
  
• 
  
  
  
• The driver in the screenshot also keeps popping up at the same intervall and disappears again.
  
• I already tried following updates from the mainboard manufacturer (Asrock, z470 Taichi to be specific). This also didn't fix anything.
  

Last thing I could do is clean the whole pc and look if maybe something has a loose contact. Does someone have a different idea?

Thanks in advance & regards,

Nicola

Bluetooth's mobile phone drivers

Hi David,

Thank you for using Windows 10.

I would suggest you to update the Bluetooth drivers as the initial troubleshooting steps and check. Here is the steps:

• Press Windows+X key on your desktop and select
  Device Manager.
• Locate Bluetooth drivers, expand, right click and click on Update.
  

If it doesn’t help, then I would suggest you to uninstall
and re-install the Bluetooth drivers in compatibility mode. Here is the steps:

• Go to your manufacturer’s website and download the
  Driver’s setup file for your computer.
• Press Windows Key + R on your desktop screen to go to run box.
• Type devmgmt.msc and hit Enter.
• Under Driver, expand, then right click and select
  Uninstall.
• If you are prompted to Confirm then Confirm.
• Go to the location where you had saved your downloaded setup files of the drivers and
  right click, then select Properties.
• Select Compatibility Tab.
• Place a check mark next to Run this program in Compatibility mode and select the operating system accordingly from the drop down list.
• Let the driver to install and then check the functionality.
