    PC Name and Bluetooth Do Not Match

    Hi Nathan,

    If you want to change your Bluetooth name on your Windows 10 computer, we recommend performing the steps below:

    • Open Control Panel in your system. If you can’t locate the control panel press
      windows key + R then type “Control Panel” and hit Enter.
    • Click on Hardware & Sound option.
    • Click on Device Manager under Device and Printers option.
    • Once the Device Manager windows opens, expand the Bluetooth and right click on
      Generic Bluetooth Adapter.
    • In the Bluetooth adapter properties windows click on
      Advance tab.
    • You can update the Bluetooth name by changing the name under Radio Information. Choose the desired name and click Ok.
    • If you are still unable to change the name on your system we suggest you to update the Bluetooth drivers of your system and then try again.

    Feel free to post back if you need further assistance.

    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
