    Bluetooth suddenly missing from PC


    Hi, I have a Dell OptiPlex 3030 and the Bluetooth toggle is gone, and there is no option for this in Device Manager. Tried updating it via the W10 update and Dell Support Assist, to no avail. There is nothing in Device Manager. I looked on the Dell website but can't even find any Bluetooth drivers. I changed "Bluetooth Support Service" to "Automatic" in Services, rebooted many times and still nothing. Any help greatly appreciated.

    :)

    - installed bluetooth driver from manufacturer
    - hit windows update
    - updated / uninstalled bluetooth items listed in Device Manager and restarted the PC
    - updated / uninstalled USB drivers listed in Device Manager and restarted the PC (USB drivers automatically came back but not bluetooth)
    - turned on and restarted all bluetooth support in services.msc
    - conducted bluetooth troubleshooting
    - conducted hardware troubleshooting
