I want to start off by saying that I'm new to Linux. All help is very much appreciated.
My OS is recently installed Mint 21.3 Cinnamon, and in first use my bluetooth headphones worked flawlessly. I switched the bluetooth off from the panel after use, figured that it's easy to just turn back on when I need it.
Fast forward to couple of days later when I tried to enable the bluetooth back on: When I press the Bluetooth symbol from the panel, it opens the Bluetooth Devices window, but "Enable Bluetooth" just closes the whole thing and nothing happens. I'm unable to click anything else except that and "Exit". They both just close it. I managed to get this from the Terminal by using
rfkill list
:
