Hi SoOverMSSUPDATES,
Thank you for reaching Microsoft Community. We're sorry for the inconvenience this has caused you.
I understand how frustrating it can be to have an issue with your Surface device where Bluetooth stops working after updating the device firmware. This is definitely not the experience we want you to have with your Surface. I am here to help and let us both work on this together.
- May I know what error code shows on the following drivers in Device manager?
- What build version of Windows 11 are you currently running?
- Is the Bluetooth icon missing from the system settings?
Kindly try the following steps below to troubleshoot your device.
Force the device to shut down and restart
Press and hold down the power button until your Surface shuts down and restart and you see the Windows logo screen (about 20 seconds), then release the power button.
Run Surface Diagnostic Toolkit
See: Fix common Surface problems using the Surface Diagnostic Toolkit (microsoft.com)
Run Bluetooth troubleshooter.
Select Start > Settings > System > Troubleshoot > Other troubleshooters. Next to Bluetooth, select Runand follow the instructions.
Uninstall any drivers that are displaying an error in Device Manager.
Open Device Manager > expand system category> right click on the driver that showing an error and select Uninstall device. If prompt to ask to permanently delete the driver, leave the box unchecked and select Uninstall. Then restart your Surface.
Manually update the drivers and firmware for your Surface.
Go to Download driver and firmware for Surface, choose Surface Laptop. Then click the link next to Surface Laptop 5 then click Download on the next page. Choose the .msi file that matches your current OS Build and click Next. After downloading, run and install the .msi then Restart.

I hope these works. Let me know how it goes.
Kind regards,
Lavenia
