  1. Bluetooth constantly cutting in and out since last Windows update


    I've got some Bluetooth headphones that I use regularly. They were working completely fine with my Windows 10 PC until the most recent update, now Bluetooth constantly gets choppy and distorted or straight up cuts out. It's super frustrating. I'm using a Bluetooth USB adapter because my PC doesn't support Bluetooth on its own.

    1. Uninstalling and reinstalling Bluetooth drivers (several times)
    2. Disabling the 'Hands-Free' sound device in Control Panel and in Device Manager
    3. Setting 'Headphones' as the default sound device
    4. Disabling all sound enhancements
    5. Enabling Windows Sonic for headphones
    6. Toggling Bluetooth on / off and re-pairing the headphones


    It only happens on my main PC. It doesn't happen on my Windows 10 laptop or my phone. I can't System Restore or Reset PC (it would take way too much time to back up everything and I'm in the middle of several work-related projects). Any suggestions? Bluetooth constantly cutting in and out since last Windows update :(

    :)

    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

    • Support A2DP for Wireless Stereo Music Playback
    Edit: This is a dongle with old BT version I see now, but I'm sure you can find a Asus BT4.0 version.

    Edit2:

    @aasim1111 I have this one, it doesn't show that it supports A2DP in the specs but I think it'll work, otherwise send a mail to Asus and ask.
