After updating to Windows 10 v1903, many users encountered issues with their Bluetooth devices. These problems have to do with connecting or even discovering Bluetooth devices.
In this regard, Microsoft identified compatibility issues caused by older driver versions for Bluetooth from Qualcomm and Realtek.
Also, Microsoft put a hold on Windows 10 v1903 update for computers that have devices with old driver versions. The hold stands until they are updated.
As a result, the May 2019 Update won’t be offered to these devices.

Still, even if you already decided to upgrade to Windows 10 v1903, Microsoft recommends that you verify if new drivers are available.
