Hi everyone,
I was using my Bluetooth headphones on my ASUS ROG Strix G713PV, and they were working fine. Suddenly, my headphones disconnected on their own. When I tried to reconnect them, I noticed that the Bluetooth option had completely disappeared from Windows — there’s no Bluetooth icon in the taskbar or settings anymore.
When I checked Device Manager, it shows the following error:
Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
A request for the USB device descriptor failed.
Error Code 43
I’ve already tried restarting my laptop and running Windows Troubleshooter, but the problem persists.
Has anyone else faced this issue or found a fix? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
