  1. Ethernet controller and Bluetooth drivers fail after Windows 10 Update.


    I updated automatically the following update: January 12, 2021—KB4598242 (OS Builds 19041.746 and 19042.746). When I restarted I couldn't connect to the Internet. I turned on my WiFi as opposed to my usual Broadband and it connected fine. Then I tried to use Bluetooth and nojoy.

    The Bluetooth softswitch to turn the radio on and off is entirely gone from both the Action Center and in the Settings panel. (I use Bluetooth daily for 18 months on this PC)

    Device Manager tells me Bluetooth has a "Power Failure" and the Ethernet controller has an incompatible driver.

    Windows tells me first thing to turn on Bluetooth before troubleshooting so it's been worthless. Trying to reinstall drivers results in nothing.

    Has anyone seen something online I can use to repair my PC? Thanks

    Bluetooth in windows 10

    My computer specs are as listed in the profile. I think all of you guys are correct. I don't have built-in Bluetooth in mobo.

    I contacted skull candy headphones and thy have told me if I do not have built-in Bluetooth, I would need a dongle which supports at least a2dp. I do not know what the heck that means. I have a feeling I would need more than a cheap dongle.

    Anyone suggest some a2dp adapters. I searched but don't know what a2dp is so couldn't make a decision

    Wireless Xbox One controller requires PIN for Windows 10.

    Hi,

    You will be asked for a PIN when connecting your wireless Xbox One controller via Bluetooth on Windows 10 if your Bluetooth drivers are not updated. It is also possible that you have to reset the controller to remove the PIN. To resolve your concern, restart
    your controller by following the steps below:

    • Power off the controller by pressing and holding the Xbox button on the controller for 6 seconds.
    • Press the Xbox button again to power it back on.
    • Connect your Xbox Wireless Controller to your PC using a USB cable or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

    You can also update your Bluetooth drivers by following the steps on this
    link
    .

    Keep us updated with the results after performing the suggested solutions above.
