How do I reinstall Bluetooth in Device Manager?

We hope the solutions listed in this post helped you fix the problem.
If your Bluetooth driver is not showing in the Device Manager, it might be hidden. Go to “View > Show hidden devices” and see if it brings Bluetooth in the Device Manager. If this does not help, you can download the latest version of the Bluetooth driver from the manufacturer’s website and install it manually on your system. Some users have also confirmed that the latest Windows Update caused the Bluetooth driver to disappear from the Device Manager. In such a case, uninstalling the latest Windows Update fixes the problem.
