Bluetooth Radio Not Fixed

[charlesgorby]

As you can see above, even when my Bluetooth appears on in both Settings and the Notification Center, my devices cannot connect. This problem has persisted for a while now, initially popping up on my 2016 HP Pavilion 17t a few months ago and now on this laptop, an HP Spectre x360 13-ap0xxx. When using the Bluetooth Troubleshooter, it says 'Bluetooth Radio - Not Fixed'. There have been other users with this problem but after reinstalling drivers, they fixed it, meanwhile my laptop still cannot add other Bluetooth devices even after reinstalling drivers. There's one other problem too, my System Restore. I tried seeing if this was a problem I could fix by restoring my system, but my OneDrive folder 'cannot be extracted' from the system restore point and therefore won't restore. I tried going into Registry Editor and changing FilesNotToSnapshot and FilesNotToBackup to include my OneDrive location but it still doesn't work. Any help on either one of these problems is greatly appreciated.
