I recently purchased a new PC with an Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC 3168 and the Bluetooth doesn't work.

I have updated the drivers, uninstalled the device and reinstalled the drivers, and still no Bluetooth. HELP!

  1. Does the WiFi is working on both bands (i.e. 2.4GHz and 5GHz)? The Bluetooth uses 2.4GHz radio together with WiFi radio. To ensure that the antenna is connected, the WiFi 2.4GHz should work.
  2. Did you downloaded drivers from manufacturer site?
  3. Did you installed both the WiFi and the Bluetooth driver?
  4. Did you switched Bluetooth to ON in Settings > Devices?
  5. You may use the Windows Troubleshooter in Settings > Update & security > Troubleshoot > Bluetooth.
