Hi, I am using HP ProBook 4440s. I am not sure if the laptop consists of a Bluetooth chip. If so, please let me know how to enable it.

General specs:

 

              https://support.hp.com/my-en/document/c03356342#AbT3

 

Machines of the series have 2 options

 

  1. Intel Centrino Advanced -N 6235 802.11a/g/n (2x2) Bluetooth v4.0 combo
  2. Atheros AR9485 802.11 b/g/n WiFi adapter (1x1)

Which one does your machine have  1 or 2 ? If 1, your machine does have Bluetooth, otherwise no.

 

Regards

BH
