The setting to switch Bluetooth on / off has disappeared from my Bluetooth settings page. I have since tried updating the drivers, reinstalling the drivers and even uninstalling the device from the Device Manager page, followed by selecting "scan for hardware changes", and nothing has worked, its as though my computer has simply forgotten how to turn Bluetooth on.
Please help

I have a Dell XPS desktop with Qualcom QCA8930 wireless/bluetooth board. The Bluetooth drops out periodically and the only way I have found to fix it is to turn off the pc, unplug it for 10 seconds, plug it back in and then start. It always fixes it, but it is a pain. Restarting or shutting down and starting again do not solve the problem; the ac cord has to be disconnected and then reconnected.
PS. I have a 4.0-5.0 adapter it works and Bluetooth Device (RFCOMM Protocol TDI)
shows up here. You can not do anything but this. The new version of windows 10 not compatible with old device settings

I had this exact problem. Yesterday I cleared CMOS. After restart I went to services.msc and started the bluetooth service and now my bluetooth works. Maybe try this.
