Windows 10: No way to turn on bluetooth

After working fine for a long time, I am now unable to turn bluetooth on. The bluetooth troubleshooter says "system is not capable of running bluetooth." Bluetooth only shows in the device manager when I show hidden devices, and my device doesn't have a bluetooth switch as far as I can tell. I made sure Windows was updated.I updated drivers from the Dell website. I tried things from here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/no-way-to-turn-on-bluetooth/9b474ede-ac36-4425-8b4a-6aabc55f9316And after seeing this post https://www.dell.com/community/Inspiron/Inspiron-35

I don't have any bluetooth devices but windows turned it on!!


Then if they are still on, try some of these steps listed below, Not all of these steps may not apply, but, step #2 and #4 should help. I have all 4 steps on myself.

1 Go to Device manager and DISABLE Bluetooth, Do Not remove!
2 Turn USB suspend off
3 Set Hard Drive or SSD to Never
4 Turn Link State Power Management off
Settings 2 thur 4 can be found in your Power Management Settings.
Then click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable"
Then Reboot your Computer. This does work, may come back if you shut OFF your computer,then turn it back on, if it does, just a reboot will turn it off again.

a few days ago it was not even showing Bluetooth in Action Center but i don't understand what happened, no devices added or changed in my PC, no software Installed or Uninstalled, not a single Settings Changed in Windows or BIOS!!!

 

Bluetooth won't turn on Windows 10

Hello Sangeeta,

I tried the steps mentioned, but couldn't fix the problem. By the way in method 2 couldn't find Bluetooth Support Service.

Please advice, I can't turn the bluetooth on in my laptop. It shows my list of bluetooth devices, but can't see the switch to turn it on.

Looking forward to your assitance,

José
