  1. bluetooth device discovery option missing


    My pc won't detect anything through bluetooth, and after doing a little research, i found out that enabling advanced discovery should solve the problem. Now my problem is, that my pc doesn't even have that option. i Have a screenshot but it's in dutch. it says device settings and only shows download over metered connections as a settingThis is what i should have:

    SSDP Discovery missing from Services.msc

    Hi Expert,

    Is there anyone could explain why the SSDP discovery service is missing from my WIN7 computer?

    I am trying to turn on the network discovery, but it sees didn't work, then I following the Microsoft KB suggestions to start the below services:

    • DNS Client
    • Function Discovery Resource Publication
    • SSDP Discovery
    • UPnP Device Host
    when I trying to start SSDP Discovery, I found the service is just missing from my computer, I got no idea about that.

    I checked in HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlset\Services\, no any key about the SSDP discovery service, then I export the KEY from one normal WIN7 PC, import to the one which got network discovery issue. But seems it's not working, I still cannot find the SSDP
    Discovery service in services.msc.

    I have google so many troubleshooting, none of them worked for me. Please suggest,thanks!

    Bluetooth Options missing in Devices under Settings.

    Hi Andre,

    Thanks you for posting your reply and update.

    I suggest you to uninstall the drivers from Device Manager, restart the system and download the latest Bluetooth drivers from the manufacturer’s website and try installing them on the system.


    Follow these steps to un-install the drivers:

    • On the search bar type “Device Manager
    • On the left pane locate “Bluetooth” and expand by clicking on it
    • Right on the “Bluetooth adapter” option and click
      “Uninstall’
    • Download the latest Bluetooth driver setup file from the manufacturer’s website and install it.

    If Bluetooth is turned on, and the driver is up to date, but your device still doesn’t work, try removing the device and re-pairing it.

    Here's how: Go to Start, enter
    Devices
    , select Bluetooth, select the device, select
    Remove device
    , and then try pairing again.

    Make sure that the Bluetooth-enabled audio device is on and discoverable. How you do this varies with devices, so check the info that came with your device or go to the manufacturer’s website.

    Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.
