Intel WiFi 7260 bluetooth not working in Windows-10

[AHern18]

Hello,

I have upgraded my HP notebook form Windows 8 to windows-10.

I have an Intel 7260-ac half mini pcie Wifi card installed.

Everything worked under Windows-8

After upgrade

Wifi-ac works in Windows-10

Bluetooth does not work in windows 10

In device manager I don't even see the generic microsoft bluetooth driver or button.

I removed all bluetooth apps in program manager.

I tried installing Intel bluetooth driver however driver will not load into device manager.

No Intel or Microsoft bluetooth device drivers are loaded in device manager.

Can not get any Intel or Microsoft bluetooth device drivers to loaded in device manager.

Any help is appreciated.
