But, for many other instances, you may need to manually initiate the installation or even download and install the Bluetooth driver on your own.
Install Bluetooth Driver for Windows
The following list consists of effective Bluetooth driver installation methods like downloading and installing from the device manufacturer’s website and using OEM-specific tools.
Automatic Installation
If you have a Bluetooth driver already installed on your Device but want to download the latest version of it, you can update it from Windows update. As mentioned already, you can instruct Windows to search for Bluetooth driver automatically and install it from the Device Manager.
Manual Update
Now, if Windows can’t detect the Bluetooth drivers for your device or the installed driver is corrupted, you can manually install the correct Bluetooth driver. To do so, you will first have to know the model number of your computer and then search for the Bluetooth driver made for the exact model on the device manufacturer’s website. Then, download and install it.
OEM Specific Tools
Another way to download and install Bluetooth drivers for your computer is to use utility tools from your manufacturers. Such tools provide automatic suggestions to users for driver installation and sometimes even download them automatically. Acer has got the Acer Care Center, Dell with SupportAssistant, MSI with MSI center, and so on. You can find the software for your Manufacturer online and also with the instructions to download/use them.
Intel Driver Support
Now, if you know that your computer needs a new Bluetooth driver but want to skip the hassle of device detection and manual search, you can use Intel’s Driver & Support Assistant tool. However, Intel itself suggests downloading the driver from manufacturers if possible.
