Hello!

Some day ago, my ASUS TUF Gaming F17 Laptop suddenly lost Bluetooth.

I have been needing Bluetooth to connect my laptop to my home speakers.

I have looked in Device Manager (is it in alphabetical order?) but it is not there.

Please help!

Hello! My name is Ben a fellow member here in the community, not a Microsoft employee. Hope you are doing well!

With regard to the Bluetooth option not showing on your device manager, you may try the steps below to troubleshoot this:

  1. Run the Hardware and Devices Troubleshooter.

On the windows search box, type, "Troubleshooting" > left-click on the result > Hardware and Sound > open Hardware and Devices and follow the on-screen instructions.

  1. Press the Windows key + R, then type "services.msc". Once the Services window opens, locate Restart Bluetooth Support Service > right-click > Restart.

After doing the steps above, right-click on it again, choose Properties, then ensure startup type is on Automatic.

Once done, restart your device and check if Bluetooth will appear again.

Regards,

Ben
