My bluetooth device has yellow exclamation mark. Uninstalling the device or restarting the pc does not work. I have unistalled and reinstalled the drivers even though they are up to date, but my problem is still not solved. The mark comes back again.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I solved the problem.
Device Manager -> Bluetooth Device -> Update Driver -> Browse my computer... -> Let me pick from a list... -> Uncheck "Show compatible hardware" -> Latest driver of the device(MediaTek for me)
This solved my problem. The problem persists when I update from Windows Update.

Have you installed the most recent BIOS? It is dated Aug. 15, 2024
Have you reset the EC (embedded controller)?
Press and hold down the [power button for fifteen seconds or more.
