    bluetooth mouse abruptly stopped working stopped working


    Windows 10 Pro x64
    Logitech M535 mouse

    My mouse stopped working while using my computer. (Yes, I changed the battery just in case.) In the process of troubleshooting and several failed attempts to restore use of my mouse, I noticed a few noteworthy things:
    1) Bluetooth is now missing from the hidden icons in the task tray.
    2) Bluetooth is now missing from Device Manager.
    3) In settings>devices my mouse appears and indicates turned off when in fact it is turned on.
    4) In settings>devices removing the device does not work.
    5) In Logitech's options my device is not found -- even when attempting to pair it.

    I have restarted bluetooth services in services.msc and changed it from manual to automatic startup. I have run Windows troubleshooter.

    What advice can you offer?

    update:

    This is bizarre. Everything has returned to normal. Device Manager shows Bluetooth devices, and the mouse is fully functional. After all the shut downs and restarts performed yesterday to no avail, sitting overnight and starting up this morning has greeted me with problem solved. Can this be a sign of some sort of impending failure?
