Windows 10 2004 bluetooth device not working after sleep mode

 Issue
After updating 10 windows 10 2004 bluetooth devices may stop working after putting the computer in sleep mode

The workaround is to disable and enable the bluetooth adapter from device manager.

Right click the Start button and select "Device Manager", expand the bluetooth section and right click the bluetooth adapter, click on "Disable Device", right click again on the bluetooth adapter and click on "Enable Device".

Update: After dealing with it for a long time I haven't found a real solution, I have tried multiple drivers with mixed results, something I noticed is an apparent conflict with IRQs but Windows does not allow to set those manually but might give you a clue about what is causing it. Another possibility is the sleep states because sometimes it get's fixed after waking up the computer.
