So recently I got myself a pair of wireless headphones and I've been using them on my phone until today when I wanted to connect them to my laptop. But when I clicked "Connect" in the Windows10 notification area it just kept searching and nothing ever got found. I opened bluetooth in the settings and clicked "Add bluetooth or other device" and a window came up telling me I had to turn on bluetooth (I noticed there was no ON-OFF button in the settings or anywhere). So I follow that window to to a microsoft page that said I should troubleshoot in the settings, so I opened up bluetooth troubleshooting and it came up with "Device does not have bluetooth". I may be wrong but I do clearly remember having bluetooth prior to one night when my Windows 10 decided to update itself. So I went into Device Manager and there was no "Bluetooth" section to be found. Just in case I updated some out-of-date drivers and tried finding it in the "add legacy hardware" option with no luck. I also updated windows again to the latest version, and restarted my laptop like 100 times while doing all this hoping something would change. I tried searching for a driver on the HP site and couldn't find anything related to bluetooth? So I'm lost. ANY help would be very much appreciated!
