No Bluetooth in Control Panel
I'm using a LAPTOP which has the bluetooth on/off button right next to the
wireless button (both built in)

I CANNOT find the Bluetooth option in the Control Panel.

I remember I've seen it before, but I dont know what happened to it.

Anyone know how to get it back?

Re: No Bluetooth in Control Panel
Go to HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\ in RegEdit. Delete the
following key: {e0cbf06c-cd8b-4647-bb8a-263b43f0f974}. Open Device Manager.
(run devmgmt.msc) Remove the Bluetooth radio listed here. Click Action,
click Scan for hardware changes. This should re-enumerate the Bluetooth
adapter..

Re: No Bluetooth in Control Panel
I've found RegEdit however I cannot find
"HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\"

The closest I get is "HKEY_Current_Config/System/CurrentControlSet/" and
then its either Control, Enum, or SERVICES
