Bluetooth Issues Since Surface Updates - 5 August 2021

The Bluetooth on my Surface Pro (5th Gen) has not been working properly since the Surface Firmware Updates this morning. I have to restart to get it to work and then it only works properly for about 5 minutes. I have tried rolling back and reinstalling the Marvell driver. Also the Bluetooth troubleshooter doesn’t fix it. Running that troubleshooter causes Bluetooth to completely stop working. Will you please fix this urgently as it is a major issue for me?

    My last update was August 10 (which is when things started to go sideways with BT). That package included the removal of Flash. I wonder if that had anything to do with this issue. I am not an IT expert. I am not showing any updates available, please let us know if this package fixed your BT issue. Thanks!

    Thanks so much - I figured this (a nuclear option) was the only one that would work. Much appreciated!

    BTW I contacted MS (a helpful guy but over chat it took forever) and he gave me three driver updates to make. I followed his instructions and...still not fixed.

    Your OS build is irrelevant if you're using a Surface Pro device, if we pay a premium to have a Surface Pro device we should not be subjected to inane questions like what bluetooth driver are we using since every facet of our devices are designed by the manufacturer. If we have to put up with this BS we might as well save a lot of money and get a much cheaper device. Really pissed at Microsoft right now.

    Ummm, my OS build is not listed there as far as I can tell. I've got 19042.1165
