As others have said, powering off my PC and unplugging, let it sit for awhile worked. For anybody reading this, TRY THE POWER OFF, UNPLUG & LEAVE IT FIRST. The other methods discussed above are more invasive and time consuming. I tried the power off FIRST and glad to say, it worked like a champ! 🙂

Like others here – I tried all these methods and no result. Still not working. Unplugging the computer’s power cable – leaving it and coming back – it’s working again

I tried several things before googling the error message to find this page. I had already tried uninstalling and reinstalling my Bluetooth drivers, disabling Bluetooth, etc. I had restarted the PC several times, and I think even had it off over the weekend. I didn’t want to go through any more steps, and was about ready to order a Bluetooth dongle, but in reading the comments I decided to shut down my PC and *unplug it* while I was at lunch. When I booted it back up, Bluetooth was back. Thanks! That’s crazy.

Great advice. Tried most of the methods. «Method 4. Disable Fast Startup and Uninstall/Reinstall Bluetooth drivers.» worked here. Very helpful article. A+

Hey buddy, I found your method insane however I went through this whole article and nothing worked. So I ended up doing exactly what you said to turn off the computer and unplug the power cable. I left it for half an hour pressed the power button several times and turned on the computer. IT WORKED. WDHHHH. I Tried everythinggggg installing uninstalling updating you NAME IT, this method actually worked. Hope other people try it out too if nothing else works.

Thank you! I’d tried the «shut off and unplug» method and it didn’t work, but I saw your comment and tried keeping it unplugged for a longer period of time. It worked that time!

For some reason unplugging it worked for me as well! Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment to be honest i would probably not have tried this LOL, Lifesaver!!

I just wanted to say THANK YOU. to whom ever wrote this page. Unexpectedly my Bluetooth stopped working. I asked my 2 «techies» at the office and with no success. I found this site and on my own I managed to work my way thru the steps and options until Method 3 it finally worked.

First of all, thank you for this article. However, I failed in every method.
While I was giving up, I removed power from my computer, pressed the power button a few times, waited for about 10 minutes, and turned on the computer, and Bluetooth worked fine.
I hope it helps you.

I have a Dell laptop and I was scared because I visited a couple of sites and not a single one worked. I tried options 1 to 4 of these tips but to no avail. Frustrated, I shut my laptop down and let it rest for 15 mins. And then I tried option 5, it worked. Haha thank you so much!

Thank you sooo very much for this comprehensive fix. Method 3 worked for me (though im not sure what the implications are of having to use the generic version).
