How do i fix the grayed out bluetooth switch?

I'm running Windows 10 on an HP ProBook 4430s, and am having the same problem.

My bluetooth drivers say they are up to date......I am NOT in airplane mode.

How about some suggestions please, I've tried everything I can think of.

Thanks in advance

I think in general these get grayed out if Windows doesn't recognize the devices associated with those icons. If you open Device manager do you see problems for you Sound or Network devices? Do those systems work? In other words, do have network access and are you hearing normal system sounds?

 

Thanks for your reply hiphopper - silly question, where can i locate Device Manager on a PC witich has Windows 10 installed?

Cheers

 

you should see THIS PC on your dektop
RIghtclick and Properties
Device manager

good luck

 

Thank you for your guidence Harpert,





I think Windows 10 is the source of my migraine.





I've tried both suggestions but to no avail.

Thanks for your efforts anyway guys.

 

Hi,
If you like, try Group Policy Editor, go to run and type gpedit.msc. I would suggest you to backup your system and follow this tutorial.

Hi brummyfan,

Thank you for your knowledge, but my system doesn't seem to like 'gpedit.msc'.

Think it's prob best to put this all in the too hard basket.

Really appreciate everyone's time & effort.

Cheers

 

I am sorry that I fail to notice that you have Win 10 and unfortunately group policy editor enabled in Pro and upwards*Redface

 

It's all good my friend - disappointments are inevitable, but misery is option. Enjoy your day.
