Windows 10: Bluetooth virtual COM port

Hello everyone

I'm having trouble to open connection with a bluetooth device with a virtual com port SPP.
I'm able to pair it Through bluetooth settings>advanced settings > Com port > add and everything goes fine.
But when I want to open the connection with a software Here Realterm or an handmade soft it doesn't works, while it's working well with a wired connection.

And it was working fine until aproximately January, so I suspect one update to be the cause of the issue.

Just for informations i'm under windows 10 v1909


So my question is : do you have a clue to make it works? Any help is welcome!

:)

 

With Windows 10, can't open any Bluetooth virtual com ports

I try your recommendation but nothing.

the zebra says that the problem is from win10.

in windows 8.1 the printer and bluetooth virtual ports works great for any devices which works via bluetooth.

I think that Microsoft hasn't solve the problem (SPP ports) as well as think. Maybe Microsft programmers should check the code again.

Thanks friend.

 

Duplicate Bluetooth Port

I am running Windows 10 Pro x64 on an HP laptop. I recently had to re-install windows.

I've re-installed my HP printer via USB cable and this is working. However I normally use a bluetooth connection and at present I can't get that to work.

I added bluetooth for the printer (it worked perfectly well before re-installing Windows) but its set up keeps going wrong in various ways depending on which "add printer" route I use.

At present I have two duplicate entries, but different types, in the printer property's list of ports;

BTH001 virtual........ Printer X

BTH001 local Printer X

As I remember the virtual one is correct, but I can't delete the local port - even having stopped printer spooling, it just keeps saying it's in use (no idea for what, I'm not using it).

How can I get rid of this BTH001 type=local port because I think it is causing problems resulting in installation of the bluetooth printer function not working properly?
