Windows 10: Bluetooth Device issues.

Suddenly my Bluetooth controller isn’t connecting on my windows 10 pc. I use a Bluetooth dongle, which appears to be working fine, but my Devices window will not open... it starts to, but automatically closes. I’ve restarted, I’ve checked my device manager and updated everything I can think of to update. I have no idea what would even cause this.

Hi FredOlson1,

Sounds like a Bluetooth driver conflict to me. Did you make any changes on your laptop prior to the issue? What is the build and version of your Windows 10? In the meantime, kindly follow the steps below:

Step 1: Lets remove the Megacra sound bar from your Bluetooth device list.

1. Select Start > Settings > Devices >
   Bluetooth & other devices.
2. Select the paired Bluetooth device that you want to remove > Remove device >
   Yes.
   
   Restart your laptop.

Step 2: Download and install the latest Bluetooth driver directly from Dell support website.
