Windows 10: Bluetooth Uninstalled Issue

Alright here's what happened. I was playing a game on my PC with a controller connected to Bluetooth, it then disconnected for unknown reasons. I tried reconnecting but it says I'm already connected to the device even though it was not. I then proceeded to turn off the Bluetooth leaving the settings frozen. I then task managered Suspended the settings. I reopened the settings to have no option to turn the Bluetooth off or on. I then restarted my PC soft, hard, and fully powered down with no hope. I then came on a fix where I was told to delete my Bluetooth drivers, so I deleted all of them.
