Windows 10: I accidentally uninstalled Bluetooth on Device Manager

I have an HP Spectre x360. For some reason, the bluetooth stopped working one day, which seems to be a common problem for the Spectre. I was following instructions on how to fix it, but then I accidentally uninstalled the Bluetooth from the Device Manager. Now, even when I click "Show hidden devices" on the Device Manager, Blutooth doesn't show up like it used to


Any advice? I've tried downloading the latest driver and restarting my device, but Bluetooth still won't show up. Thanks!

:)

Bluetooth services and device manager

Hi Tina,

Having an incompatible driver causes functionality issues like what you are experiencing right now with your Bluetooth. To resolve such issue, we suggest that you uninstall and reinstall your Bluetooth drivers manually instead of letting Windows search for
an updated driver automatically. Here are the steps to do that:

• Visit your device manufacturer’s website to download the latest driver.
  
• Right-click on the Start button, then select Device Manager.
• Select Bluetooth, then the Bluetooth driver
  name.
• Right-click on driver and then select Uninstall device >Delete the driver software for this device check box >
  Uninstall.
• After uninstalling, right-click the driver that's having the issue, select
  Update driver > Browse my computer for driver software.
• Select Browse > look for the drivers you've just downloaded >
  OK.
• Select Next > follow the steps to install the driver >
  Close.
• Restart your computer.

I understand the inconvenience you are facing with detecting the Bluetooth drivers in Device Manager.

  Uninstall.
