Hi All,
I have got a Lenovo Y70 laptop that has built in bluetooth. I have been using this without issue with various gadgets, headphones, speakers, etc.
However today I was using it with my bluetooth headset to watch a Youtube video. I paused the video and went through to the kitchen to make myself a brew and when I came back my bluetooth had disconnected, which was fine. I tried to connect and it would not connect. Went to bluetooth devices turned the adapter off and back on and it found my device and connected to it, then the bluetooth option just disappeared.
I went to device manager and the bluetooth heading with the device underneath has disappeared. When I scan for new hardware it finds nothing. As you can see from the thumbnail there is an unknown USB device under the USB controller header. I cannot guarantee it but I think (emphasis on think) this is the now not functioning Bluetooth device, but I cannot be 100% certain.
I have tried uninstalling this device and then doing a hardware scan, it only finds this device and still reports it as not working with an error 43 code.
I have been searching for a solution to this problem and trying out some of the hits including a Registry clean down and the obvious reboot. But nothing is sorting it out.
Anyone come across something like this before?
