For background on this, and what I've tried, please read
Just ran an update, bluetooth is GONE! - Windows 8 and Windows 8.1
I'm owning up to this. I messed up. I went to do some updates and it may not have been a good idea to do them through the Windows Start - Updates path, because it was taking a super long time and I apparently made the mistake of hitting Cancel. Then after the ensuing processes, I got some advice from a Google search, saying to just delete the Bluetooth stuff in Device Manager, and reboot, and Windows would reinstall them. It didn't.
So I was finally referred over here from the above thread, ran the file check stuff, was told that some files were corrupted ( duh ) and then ran the repair tool, which took a long time, but says it fixed them. I then ran the file check again, and it said they were ok.
But the Realtek Bluetooth still hasn't reappeared on my Device Manager - EVEN THOUGH I managed to get everything turned on in the processes, and it says it's running. I just cant go about detecting a Bluetooth device, and linking it to the PC, where it was linked before I messed things up.
So help here would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
