Hi... Bluetooth option is not available in my laptop since after migration to Windows 10. I tried by adding legacy hardware and by changing in Bluetooth support services,,,,,but nothing works. Could you please any one help me to get out it.

Welcome to HP support community.
Try downloading Bluetooth driver from Intel website
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/27493
-
After this drivers update reboot the notebook, check is the Bluetooth drivers are listed under device manager.
-
And check if it's able to pair any Bluetooth device
If the issue is not resolved, try to run BIOS update and check.

Let me know how it goes.

Hi Sandy,
Thanks for your reply...I tried both ways, but still it doesnt work. In device manager, Intel Centrino Wireless Bluetooth 3.0+High speed virtual adaptor is still hidden and not able to connect to any other devices.
Please suggest if there is any other way-out for this issue.
Thanks,
PJJ.

Hi Sandy,
Thanks again for your reply.
Troubleshoot gives the message as "Device does not have Bluetooth".
In the flight mode it shows only Wifi switch and there is no Bluetooth on/off switch.
Again under Settings/Devices/Bluetooth and other devices, both Bluetooth switch and More Bluetooth options are missing.
Awaits for solution.
