Windows 10: how can I get Bluetooth on my pc

My PC shows no icon for Bluetooth. I used Bluetooth troubleshoot and it says I have a Bluetooth radio, but blue tooth troubleshoot says its unable to fix any unresolved errors with my Bluetooth radio."There was a problem trying to fix the unresolved error for your Bluetooth radio. Error: 0x1Unfortunately, I wasn't able to solve your problem."

Step 1:

Turn on Bluetooth on your iPhone which you link to pair on Windows PC.

Note: Turn on Bluetooth on iPhone, tap settings, tap Bluetooth, and then turn on Bluetooth.

1. Open settings on Windows 10 PC
   
2. Select Devices and select Bluetooth
   
3. Below Manage Bluetooth devices select, turn on the Bluetooth option.
   
   
4. Windows 10 will start searching for Bluetooth devices, in few seconds, your IPhone name will appear in manage Bluetooth devices sections.
