Hi Ian,
Some PC manufacturers are a bit slow to release drivers after new releases of Windows and unfortunately that means waiting for a driver to released. I\'m sure this is not the news you wanted to hear.
You do have two options though:
1. Find out the manufacturer of the Bluetooth adapter (it is probably not HP) and try to get the driver directly from them or you may even find that some Dell systems (or some other manufacturer) use this bluetooth adapter too and offer the newer driver.
2. Try running a scan with Driver Reviver to see if that finds a newer Bluetooth driver for you.
Good luck!

00Hi Ian,
You can follow the below steps to solve this problem:
1. Restart Bluetooth Support Service
You may want to check if the related Services are started and running smoothly. To do this, press Windows key + R, type services.msc. Next, right click on Bluetooth Support service and select Restart.
Right click on Bluetooth support service and select Properties and ensure that the startup type is Automatic.
2. Enable the Bluetooth Audio Service
Verify whether the settings for Bluetooth speaker given below is enabled by default or not. If not, enable it and check if it solves the issue. Follow the steps to enable the Bluetooth Audio Service.- Press Win+X key together and select Control Panel from the list. Select Devices and Printers.
- In Devices and Printers, locate the Bluetooth speaker device and right click on the device. Click on Properties and navigate to Services tab.
- Select Audio Sink, Hands free Telephony and Remote Control and click on Apply.
3. Update Bluetooth Device Driver
To do this, you can use the Device Manager.
Press Win+R, type devmgmt.msc to open the Device Manager. Expand Bluetooth.
Click on Properties, click on Driver tab.
Click Update Drivers button.
Click on OK button.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Lokesh
