cant send or receive files via bluetooth

Hi,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting your query.

To understand the issue better, I would like to know what is the make and model of the computer?

For now, let’s try simple troubleshooting steps and check if this helps in resolving the issue. Follow the below methods.

Method 1.

I recommend you to uninstall/reinstall the Bluetooth driver and check. Follow the below steps:

• 
  Press Windows key + X and click on
  Device manager.
  
• 
  Locate for Bluetooth and click on it expand it.
  
• 
  Right click on the device and click on
  uninstall.
  
• 
  Once you install the driver restart the computer. It will automatically install the generic Bluetooth driver.
  

If this doesn’t help to fix the issue. I suggest you to update the Bluetooth driver. Skip step3 from the above steps and right click on the device and click on update.

Method 2.

If the issue still persist. Try the below steps and check if this helps you in connecting the Bluetooth headset.

• 
  Press Windows + R keys.
  
• 
  Type Services.msc and press Enter.
  
• 
  Search for Bluetooth service and check if it is started.
  
• 
  If the service is not started please right click on the service and click on start and set it to Automatic.
  

Hope this helps. Keep posting us with the status we will be glad to help you.

 

Fault trying to share photos from phone to laptop via Bluetooth


While waiting for replies I solved this - in Windows 10 by the following steps where -> means click/select.

1. Start -> Settings-> Devices -> Bluetooth.
2. At this point ensure Bluetooth is on and device you wish to make the transfer from is listed and paired.
3. At the bottom of the same page under Related Settings -> Send or receive files via Bluetooth -> Receive files.
   
4. The Waiting for connection page appears stay on this page and initiate the transfer from your device.
5. The file is being received window appears with a progress bar when this is complete you will be asked where to save the file and Finish

It appears these steps have to be performed for each individual file transferred therefore I've pinned the Settings window with Bluetooth selected to the task bar.
