Anyone experience this before?

This morning I noticed my bluetooth stopped working. Windows 10 is saying I don't have a bluetooth controller. I checked in BIOS and it is enabled.

I tried force restarting everything bluetooth in device manager. Drivers are said to be up to date.

I then deleted the driver and went to reinstall and the ASUS software is saying there is no bluetooth hardware connected. So I'm thinking the hardware took a crap.

Anything else I should try before calling it a day and buying a PCI bluetooth controller? Looks like they are only around 30 bucks.

Yeah, You would be surprised how often this works. Especially with laptops. Too bad most laptops you can't remove the battery anymore. The same procedure would be followed with "turn the PS off" but then remove the battery/power cable, hit the power button a few times. Maybe even let it sit for half an hour then plug it back into wall power but no battery and turn it back on. If it works, put the battery back in. I saved a LOT of people from paying hundreds of dollars for some guy getting paid $9/hr to charge them $200 to do exactly that.
