I wasn't sure where to place this, but I was trying to remove a Bluetooth device and checked online that I should look in Device Manager, uninstall the "ghost device," and retry. I accidentally removed the wrong item and now my Bluetooth is gone. I think I deleted something related to Intel ® Bluetooth devices. Please help me.

Check your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi drivers separately. It seems Intel doesn’t bundle them together even for version 23.170.0. Consider updating the Wi-Fi driver instead.

This refers to the Bluetooth driver for your wireless card (Intel AC 9260). If Bluetooth isn't functioning properly, you can try reinitializing it completely. You might find updated drivers on Asus's website: https://www.asus.com/motherboards-compon...PLUS-WI-FI. However, I wouldn't suggest using those unless necessary; getting the newest versions directly from the manufacturer is usually preferable.
