    Bluetooth icon (& driver?) missing


    Hi,


    I'm Juel. I have a Surface Pro 4 with Windows 10.


    My laptop is in a situation where its Bluetooth icon is missing from the action center and Taskbar. But the BlueTooth Adapter is present in the Device Manager. I even tried updating the adapter, but it said the lastest one was already installed.

    When I ran the troubleshooter for Bluetooth, however, it said it had no capability for BT:

    So I'm really confused. I tried the amateur's way and shut my laptop on/off. That did not work either.


    Please suggest a solution(s)

    :)

    Bluetooth driver and icon missing from whole PC - tray icon, device manager, program files?

    Dear Michael Gall,

    Thank you for your prompt reply. I'm answering your questions below,

    • Are you using a built-in or dongle Bluetooth?
      • Built-in Bluetooth with my laptop.
    • Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
      • No major changes (updates/software installations etc.) were done recently.
    • To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far?
      • Firstly tried to search the .exe file or any other related file associated with Bluetooth through windows search.
      • Secondly, tried to install bluetooth driver provided by lenovo in my driver folder, which indicates missing hardware (2nd image).
      • Thirdly, via "services.msc" tried to automatically run the bluetooth service, but nothing happened!
    That's all.

    Bluetooth driver error 10 when converted to Windows 10

    Hi,

    Apologies for the late reply.

    Error code 10 is a driver error, as you have already tried to install the drivers I would suggest you to un-install and re-install drivers and check.



    Try the following steps:


    Follow the steps mentioned below:




    • Right on the start icon and click on device manager

    • Select Bluetooth adapter, right click on it and click on un-install.

    • Restart the computer,

    • Now, install the latest drivers from the manufacturer's website.



      Hope this helps.
