Hey everyone! I recently reset my PC and ever since then my Bluetooth mouse hasn't been showing up at all. It worked perfectly fine before the reset. I updated to Windows 11, and while everything else seems to be working, my wireless mouse just won't connect. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the mouse, disabling and enabling Bluetooth, running the troubleshooter, you name it. The mouse is definitely fine since I just replaced the batteries. I'm really stuck here and could use any advice!

It sounds like you might be missing the Bluetooth driver. Make sure to check Device Manager to see if the Bluetooth adapter is showing up there. If you see it but there's an exclamation mark, you might need to update or reinstall the driver.
Try downloading the software for your mouse if you haven't yet. Brands like Logitech provide specific drivers and utilities that might just fix the connection issue. Also, it doesn’t hurt to have a cheap USB mouse around for backup—always useful in case of emergencies! And by the way, make sure to check Device Manager to see if your Bluetooth device is disabled. That could be your problem!
Which driver do I need to install?
