Windows 10: Can a Windows 11 PC use 2 Bluetooth adapters at once?

We have a PC that needs more than 7 Bluetooth devices connected to it. I have purchased a TP-Link UB4A Bluetooth dongle, but cannot function properly unless the computer's built in Bluetooth is disabled in Device Manager. But suppose we have 2 of these dongles plugged in at the same time, would that allow us to use 14 devices total on that PC? If this is not possible, are there any other products or software that can perform our desired function?

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

 

Bluetooth Device is removed from Network Adapters when Bluetooth is turned on - Windows 11

I have a new laptop with Windows 11, and the behavior for the Bluetooth Network Adapter is not behaving as expected.

The issue is:

"In order to disable the Bluetooth Device from the Device Manager, the Bluetooth needs to be turned OFF to display the device in the list of Network Adapter."

Is this a bug?

On the Windows 11 system I have, the Bluetooth Device will only display in the list of Network Adapters when the Bluetooth Device is ENABLED and OFF.

The Bluetooth option was working correctly, the Bluetooth option is available in the Settings and turned ON.

When I opened the Device Manager, the Bluetooth Device was not listed in the Device Manager under Network Adapters.

The Bluetooth option is still available in the Settings allowing me to change the Bluetooth OFF and ON.

When I go to the Settings and turn the Bluetooth OFF, the Device Manager is updated and the Bluetooth Device is now displayed in the list of Network Adapters.

If I return to the Settings and turn the Bluetooth ON, the Network Adapter for the Bluetooth Device is removed from the list of Network Adapters again.

This was not the behavior I expected. I get the same results using the Bluetooth ON/OFF or the Airplane Mode settings for the Bluetooth ON/OFF.

Basically, when the Bluetooth Device is ENABLED and ON, it is NOT displaying in the list of Adapters.

The Bluetooth needs to be ENABLED and OFF in order to locate the Network Adapter in the Device Manager.

The Bluetooth Device itself is working correctly; however the device is not listed in the Device Manager when it is ENABLED, ON, and working.

Is this a bug? This is only occurring on my Windows 11 laptop. The Windows 10 displays the Bluetooth Device in the Device Manager when it is ENABLED, and does not change if the Bluetooth Device is switched ON or OFF .

Thank you in Advance.
