I finally got the answers: I updated drivers but it didn't work. Then I updated the BIOS. ( Downloaded from lenovo support.) It worked and my bluetooth is working fine.

Thank you! I had an issue wherein after installing windows 10, my built-in bluetooth intermittently worked before failing to be recognized completely. Tried updating drivers and such (didn't work since they couldn't find the device) but this answer finally solved it. Had to update BIOS to windows 8 (since windows 10 was not an option) but it works again.
