Windows 10: Network and Bluetooth Driver Issue

My wifi and bluetooth shortcuts from the tray keep disappearing. I've tried to go to settings to find the option but it wasn't available there either? Is it some issue related to the drivers as i tried watching a tutorial and tried updating them both, did a network reset even. Even now my bluetooth option isn't working and the driver is hidden. I have Windows 11 and my laptop model is ASUS TUF F15 if that helps.
