  1. Reinstalling bluetooth driver for windows ten, and some other annoying issues i need help with


    Alright, so I kind of went too far down the rabbit hole with this one.


    I got these bluetooth headphones, and I've been trying to connect them to my ASUS laptop for a week or so. The toggle switch to turn bluetooth on and off doesnt show up in my settings, so i searched for help. I found a "guide" that was supposed to help, it just said to go to Device Manager and update the bluetooth driver to the latest software. This didn't work.


    I found a question asked by someone on a forum that described my situation quite well, as well as an answer. The answer was to uninstall all bluetooth related devices from device manager, and restart the laptop because device manager was supposed to just automatically reinstall it.


    This just made the situation worse, though. I've just restarted my laptop but nothing i deleted has been reinstalled. The "bluetooth and other devices" menu still shows up in my settings, but the toggle still isnt there.


    I ended up going and installing a bluetooth driver from Intel's software but it hasnt done anything. Nothing new has popped up apart from the installer, which ive already gone and used.


    I need a thorough, easy to understand walkthrough on how to fix my situation, and how to get the headphones to connect to the laptop.


    Also, its worth mentioning, i know the headphones work just fine because they connect to my phone just fine, with no audio problems.


    Please help? Thank you

    :)
