Sometimes due to some kind of crash or error you lose the send to bluetooth option. This is quite annoying especially when you need to send certain files via bluetooth to your device. Also it must be noted that re-installing bluetooth software doesn't help (because it is the shortcut link that has corrupted). Then same problem happened with me few days back and I searched for a solution, but came out with no exact good result. So I finally experimented a bit and there you go my problem was solved..!
Here's the 7 easy steps you need to follow to solve your problem:
1) Type shell:sendto in start menu search. Open this folder.
2) You'll notice a bluetooth.btwsendto link. Remove it (this is the corrupt link).
3) Type bluetooth in start menu search. Right click on bluetooth and click Open File Location.
4) Look for file named btsendto_explorer. Right click on it and click Copy.
5) Now come back to folder you've opened in Step 1.
6) Right click and select Paste Shortcut.
7) Now right click on the file(s) you need to send and you'll see that you got your 'send to bluetooth' option back..!
Note: If you don't get bluetooth by start menu search click open file location on bluetooth.btwsendto in shell:sendto before deleting it. You can then follow other steps as it is.
