    Bluetooth missing after Windows 10 reset while keeping files


    My specs are :

    AMD Ryzen 5 3600 Processor
    Gigabyte B550M DS3H Motherboard
    Klevv Bolt X 16GB 2x8GB DDR4-3200 RAM
    Zotac GeForce RTX 2060 6GB OC Graphics Card
    Lexar NS100 250GB M.2 NVMe SSD
    Toshiba 1TB HDD
    FSP Hyper K 80+ 500W PSU
    Tecware Nexus M Casing
    Intel AX200 Wi-Fi + Bluetooth PCI-E Card



    I recently reinstalled windows and once it was done my bluetooth was missing.


    I have tried:

    Reinstalling bluetooth driver from intel website


    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/30061/Intel-Wireless-Bluetooth-for-Windows-10


    Open hidden devices and device manager: no bluetooth driver found


    Using “Add Legacy Hardware” but no bluetooth driver to be found


    Troubleshooting bluetooth but it says bluetooth is not available on this device. Please try using an externa adapter to add bluetooth capability to this computer.


    Also, before reinstalling windows, I have had the issue of my bluetooth disappearing while connected to a wireless speaker. An error would also appear in device manager USB : Unknown USB DevicePort Reset Failed. Whenever i reinstalled the usb driver it would work for a few days.


    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.




    :)

    Bluetooth in windows 10

    My computer specs are as listed in the profile. I think all of you guys are correct. I don't have built-in Bluetooth in mobo.

    I contacted skull candy headphones and thy have told me if I do not have built-in Bluetooth, I would need a dongle which supports at least a2dp. I do not know what the heck that means. I have a feeling I would need more than a cheap dongle.

    Anyone suggest some a2dp adapters. I searched but don't know what a2dp is so couldn't make a decision

    Bluetooth in windows 10

    • Support A2DP for Wireless Stereo Music Playback
    Edit: This is a dongle with old BT version I see now, but I'm sure you can find a Asus BT4.0 version.

    Edit2:

    @aasim1111 I have this one, it doesn't show that it supports A2DP in the specs but I think it'll work, otherwise send a mail to Asus and ask.

    Windows 10 Tweaks

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK
