Windows 10: I deleted bluetooth from my Device Manager to fix things. Why does it not work and how to...

I deleted Bluetooth from my Device Manager after following the windows reinstalment of Bluetooth. I've followed the instructions given and restarted, yet it didn't work, and I do not have Bluetooth in my Device Manager. I've went and tried to download Bluetooth Wireless from Intel® to try and get it back, but it has not appeared even after I've restarted my laptop. I don't know what else to do anymore and I certainly do not want to factory reset my whole laptop just to get it back.

Deleted all of Bluetooth in Device Manager

Those should have been the drivers for the model you listed.
Open device manager and see if they are there.
As for turning on go to the notifications box (Far right on the task bar) click on the bluetooth symbol.



If not there, right click choose edit and add it

Did you mean that the BT entry in Device manager is hidden?There should be a Bluetooth section within which your Bluetooth adapter should be identified by name [Intel, in my case]. Here's an example.


If the adapter entry is 'hidden', it means that Device manager no longer detects its presence.My own Device manager no longer greys out 'hidden' devices so I have to set-unset the Show hidden devices entry to check which are 'hidden' and which are not.
I suggest you -
1 Check in your Bios for any enable/disable setting for it.
2 Get your Service manual and check the hardware itself [post #9].

I'd still like to know exactly what you did.
