Hello Folks,
today my BT stopped suddenly working while I actually used it. Bluetooth is missing in the device manager, therefore I've a unknown USB device which appear if I reinstall the BT Driver (Intel driver from Intel Website and HP Website, same result)
Windows Troubleshooter result is "Device doesn't has Bluetooth".
BT UserService is "manual start" and I can't set to automatic start. Even if I start the service, the BT adapter in device manager keeps missing.
Does anyone has any clue what else I can try to solve? Or does it hint to a hardware defect?
I'm grateful for any help.

Solved ! Just in case someone face the same issue, the solution was:
in registry change all BT services from 3 to 2 in \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\
This set the service start to "automatic". Shut down windows (not reboot) - Boot again - BT adapter available 😀

HI, I have the same problem (only I've lost wireless as well as BT!)
I've got to the right place in the registry, but am not sure what exactly to change from 3 to 2? Please can you give a bit more detail?
Thanks
