bluetoothwindows 10
I want to disable Bluetooth on my laptop running Windows 10 Pro x64, but I have a problem: the option to do so is missing even though I know that it was previously available.
Here is the Bluetooth settings pages should look like on Windows 10:
Here is how it looks for me:
As you can see, I am missing the switch to turn it on or off? Why is it missing? I know that just yesterday, it was available and I turned it off. What can I do to fix it?
Well, it seems that luckily they have fixed this in RTM:
Another simple method is to right click on WiFi or internet icon and click "Open network and sharing center". On the left panel click on "Change adapter settings" then find and disable "Bluetooth network connection" it is off!
Usually, bluetooth settings not properly appearing under "PC and devices" is a driver issue. I'd recommend going to the Bluetooth USB dongle manufacturer's website and downloading/installing the latest drives for Windows 8.

Worked for me. :)
