Windows 10: Blutooth suddenly stops working (WIN 10, USB stick?

Hello,

I have connected a Bluetooth USB stick and use different Bluetooth headphones on the PC (WIN10).

Now it suddenly doesn't work anymore. The Bluetooth stick lights up, the headphones work, but the Bluetooth doesn't search or find the right one. It does not find any devices to connect. When I click on the saved headphones, it only paired the device.

I cannot connect the device via sound settings because it is displayed as not available.

What could be the reason for that?

-----------------

USB port works, headphones work, Bluetooth apparently works, restarting PC, headphones etc did not help at all...

Windows 10 USB boot

Hi there, am not a windows 10 expert. I have a pc in the bedroom on windows 10, I messed up the bootloader trying to fix the xp on that system.

System wont boot, trying to repair via win 10 usb installer.

Downloaded the media creation tool to install windows 10 installer on usb stick. Not compatible with a host of usb sticks I have. Tried the usb sticks that others use, but I think they use rufus; as the media creation tool by win 10 does not detect the usb stick.

So quick question, the win10 machine i am trying to repair the bootloader is a win7 upgraded to win10.
If i were to use the usb win10 installer to "repair installation" does the version of the iso downloaded via the media creation tool matter?

There is three options:
Windows 10
Windows 10 Home
Windows 10 N

Also is there a step by step instead of using rufus as I want to try an alternative method of creating a usb win 10 installer. Preferably with more compatibility.

System is a asus sabertooth 990 (r2?) with AMD phenom X 6.

Also is there any other software I can load onto the usb that can repair the bootloader easily?
That would be the ideal alternative. Thanks

 

All of my USB Controller drivers suddenly stopped working

Everything was working fine - I went out for about an hour and came back to my PC and the mouse and keyboard had stopped working. They work fine in BIOS and in the Automatic Repair screen so I know it's a Windows issue, not a hardware one.

I was finally able to borrow a PS/2 keyboard yesterday (which is awful to navigate without a mouse *Shock) and navigated to Device Manager where I discovered that all of the USB ports, controllers etc. have the little warning icon.

Device manager tells me that the driver might be missing or corrupted, but when I click "Update Driver" it contradicts itself by saying I already have the best drivers available! (Thanks Microsoft! *Rolleyes)

Anyway, the only thing I can think of that I've done recently is update my graphics card drivers - but I have since rolled them back. I suppose a Windows Update could have taken place during that hour I was out.

I have tried the following:
- Plugging in USB devices into every port. None of them are recognized.
- Uninstalling all of the USB device drivers - they just come back as soon as I refresh "scan for hardware changes
- Windows updates
- Installing the drivers straight from my motherboard manufacturer website (Windows doesn't want me to install those *Rolleyes)
- No options to roll back drivers
- Updating from Device Manager
- Disabling / Enabling from Device Manager
- Disabled "Fast Startup" (as suggested elsewhere)

PS: I apologize in advance for the phone pics but it's too hard to do this on my PC with only a keyboard.
