The built-in Bluetooth on my ASUS ROG Strix B550-F Gaming WiFi II motherboard is not working. Device Manager shows a generic Bluetooth adapter with Code 43. I tried reinstalling the driver, but Windows says the current driver is already the best one available. I also tried finding a driver using the hardware ID VID_0489. I'm just trying to connect my Beats headphones, but Bluetooth won't work.

Download the Bluetooth driver specifically from the ASUS support page for the ROG Strix B550-F Gaming WiFi II. Look for the MediaTek Bluetooth package, extract the download, and run AsusSetup.exe. If the installer says the device isn’t supported, double-check that the driver is for the exact WiFi II motherboard model and your Windows version. You can also uninstall the Bluetooth adapter in Device Manager, select the option to remove its driver if available, restart the PC, and then run the ASUS installer again.
I tried the ASUS MediaTek package, but the installer says that it doesn’t support this device.
