  1. Bluetooth ICON Missing after Installing Win 11 - No longer appears in Device Manager


    After a clean install of win 11 I no longer have Bluetooth capability. I have a newer ASUS MB and in Win 10 and before I had Bluetooth. I tried troubleshooting and other suggestions. I also do not have Airplane mode when asked to make sure it was off. How can I get Bluetooth back?

    :)

    Bluetooth No Longer In Device Manager

    Last night, I had a bluetooth keyboard connecting perfectly to my Lenovo AIO 700 (as it had done since I brought it a few weeks ago). This morning, there was no bluetooth connection.



    Checked settings - bluetooth not listed as an option. Checked Services.msc and changed bluetooth options to "automatic". Ran driver updates through device manager and was getting "code 45" on all of them (icons were greyed-out but showing under the bluetooth
    node). I uninstalled all drivers and restarted and, since that point, there are no bluetooth drivers ANYWHERE in device manager (including in hidden files). I have done:

    • A system restore
    • A full system reset
    • Cmd prompts:
    • dism /online /cleanup_image /restorehealth
    • sfc /scannow
    • Hardware troubleshooter x2
    • Upgraded BIOS from Lenovo website (although nothing in my BIOS - old or new -that relates to bluetooth anyway that I can see)
    Basically, I have done everything I can find online and I am getting nowhere... Tried to speak to Windows support but requested call from them twice and they never called. Looks like the hardware is no longer installed for some reason but I can't get it
    to pick it back up again. Only other thing of note is that in device manager/universal serial bus controllers I have a yellow exclamation mark next to "unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed)" which I have tried to uninstall several times but
    keeps reappearing with the same description.

    Any suggestions appreciated! Thanks!

    Bluetooth not listed in device manager

    IIhave installed win 10 from cd on a new PC. Unfortunately Blue Tooth does not appear in The Device manager. It does not appear as a choice in the legacy list either.
    I have been searching endlessly for a solution, typical answers are update drivers in Device manager, impossible if it is not listed.

    what is my next step?

    Bluetooth missing from device manager and services

    one day my bluetooth stopped working. The icon is missing from the tray and settings. I ran troubleshooter and it says, "Device does not have bluetooth." I ran services.msc but Restore Bluetooth does not appear on the list
