Hide Bluetooth device from This PC or My Computer or Windows Explorer

Hi,

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We will surely assist you with the status of the issue.

I would like to inform you that when we un pair a device(mobile phone), the icons are removed. Those icons(hard disk partitions ) are the additional storage within your phone. Once you have connected your Bluetooth device, you can add it automatically the
next instance you try connecting, it has already being paired so there is no need to pair it again.

Additional information about connecting Bluetooth automatically:

Connect to Bluetooth and other wireless or network devices

I suggest you to refer the below article and check if the issue persist.
