Hello, and I thank you in advance if you choose to reply here.

So my bluetooth is not working anymore (Not sure if it is because of Windows 8.1 or nvidia video card updates.. I know, far fetched).

I may have messed up my driver settings.. not.. sure. Drivers for Windows 8 are not so popular as you might think. Anyhow, trying to start Services' bluetooth gives an error 1079.

But for some reason the bluetooth icon is in the bottom right screen. When I press that I only get "Searching" but it never finds anything.

On startup I have made sure the bluetooth is enabled on BIOS. I have tried to make this work for a few days now, but no matter how many forums I read, I simply cannot make it work. Any ideas at all would be wonderful! :love:

I tried that, but it's all the same. "Run as administrator" made no effect on services.msc. Any other ideas what to try next? :)

As the very last resort, yeaah.. Tried to avoid it but I think going back to windows 8 is for the best. Thanks. Will let you know if it helped.

-Edit-
Simple and effective. Took a long while, but now it works! Thanks a lot for replying ^^

Aarghh it worked beautifully for a time, then used windows update and updated nvidia GeForce 331.82 driver aaaand it's gone. Somehow those updates removed the Bluetooth drivers and now it's showing as "Unknown Device" :mad: Now I'm back where I started. I rolled back the nvidia but that didn't help.

Now it works again with a new windows update. Now I'm too scared to install nvidia updates :D
