HP Notebook - 15-f233wm (ENERGY STAR)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have a HP Notebook - 15-f233wm (ENERGY STAR) and it doesn't seem to have Bluetooth preinstalled. I'd like to add the Bluetooth hardware internally so I don't have to use an adapter but I haven't been able to contact a real person to help me do so. How can I get help on this?
