Bluetooth driver dissappeared from device manager after disabling it
Device : Lenovo y50-70 i7-4710HQ, Gtx 860M, bluetooth was qualcomm atheros ar956x?
I was testing out my new wireless earphones and after turning the bluetooth off (from the bluetooth settings found in the notification panel on the bottom right of windows 10) it would not turn back on. After that i removed the paired earphones by opening bluetooth settings and choosing "remove device". When trying to pair the ear phones again by adding new bluetooth device i noticed that it said i had not turned on bluetooth. I opened device manager to see that my bluetooth device had a little yellow warning triangle. I tried to update my driver but i already had the latest, i tried to disable the device hoping to re-enabling would solve the problem. After disabling it, there was a screen refresh and my whole bluetooth category disappeared in the device manager!
Things i've tried:
1) Restarting all services that have the word "Bluetooth" in them
2) Restarted Laptop
3) Control panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Devices and Printers -> add a device, did not detect my bluetooth
4)
