Unable to find option to activate Bluetooth

[I kill Bunnies]

So I decided to buy a Bluetooth USB connector to allow my son to use an Xbox controller playing Roblox.

However when I attempt to add device via Bluetooth it is unable to pair. In Windows 11 Device Manager there is no toggle to turn Bluetooth on/off and there is no Bluetooth icon in Quick Action.

Futhermore there appears to be no Bluetooth drivers saved anywhere. My motherboard supports Bluetooth, so why can't I activate it? Microsoft support states there should be a driver to update, but it's not there!

Any help would be much appreciated.

I ran the trouble shooter and it told me to update Windows (as advised above). This time the adapter showed in Devices and paired nicely with the controller. Hurrah!

Just to add further detail, although my mobo has WiFi and Bluetooth I had not connected the WiFi module, so that's why the Bluetooth icon wouldn't show. I found the module in my motherboard box but alas no antennas! So I ordered a new module with antenna as I was not convinced any old antenna would fit.

I don't really need the Bluetooth as the connector works, but in future I may need it for something.
