You're welcome. A Bluetooth USB dongle is a good alternative.
Help with bluetooth installation
Hello!
I bought a new pc a day ago with Windows 11Pro and I've noticed that I don't have the bluetooth option in the taskbar when I try to connect my devices. There are also no drivers for it in the device manager.
The weird thing is that is that it does appear in settings as an option to configure so I'm not really sure if my pc is capable of having bluetooth or not.

Let me help you with this issue.
I understand you are having problems with your Bluetooth.
Most Desktop computers or computer towers do not come with a built-in Bluetooth card.
May I know the brand and exact model of your PC so I can check online?
