How do I enable Bluetooth on my HP dv6tse?

[ Edited ]

Hello, my computer has Bluetooth. More specifically, it has an Intel® Centrino® Wireless Bluetooth® 3.0 + High Speed Virtual Adapter. This is not included in the stock model, but I added it during customization. I disabled bluetooth within the early days of using this computer, because I didn't expect to be using it much. Now, I am wondering how I can Re-enable it. The icon doesn't show up in the notifications area, and I cannot seem to find it in the control panel. Any help would be appreciated. I do consider myself to be fairly technologically knowledgeable, so feel free to not have to dumb things down too much. 

P.S. I have tried restarting my computer.

Depending on what Notebook model you have , there can be either one of 2 software - HP Wireless AssistantHP Connection Manager  which will help you to enable or disable bluetooth feature.

Thank you! HP Connection Manager was it. I cannot believe that I didn't think about that. Set it to start on startup. Again, Thanks!
