  1. How do I block my PC from detecting certain devices via Bluetooth


    Whenever I turn on Bluetooth on my laptop, it searches and registers a certain tv device MULTIPLE times. It kinda annoyed me but it did not harm me so I just ignored it.

    So I was trying to troubleshoot the connection with my controller today and it took forever to load up when I clicked the 'devices and printers' page in settings. When it has finally finished loading up, I think I have figured out the reason: I have 627 multimedia devices registered on my laptop, all with the same name, that fucking tv box from our neighbour or whatever.

    The screenshots

    How do I stop my laptop from adding more to that list and remove the devices from the list efficiently? I don't want to right-click -> remove the device 600+ times...

    Bluetooth devices are not detecting

    Hi Sanjay,

    Conflicts with the Bluetooth settings after the update is one of the possible reasons why your devices are not detected. For us to assist you better, kindly answer the following questions:

    • Which version and OS build number of Windows 10 is currently installed? To check, press the
      Windows key, type winver, and press the
      Enter
      key.
    • When you reinstall the latest Bluetooth driver, did you uninstall it first? Did you get the latest Bluetooth driver from the device manufacturer's website?
    • Have you tried the troubleshooting steps in this
      link
      ?

    Regards.

    No sound as PC is connected to a bluetooth device.

    Hi Samuel,

    As per your description, I understand that there is no sound in your PC as it shows that it is currently connected to a Bluetooth device which you do not recognize.

    Before we proceed, I would like you to provide the information stated below:

    1. Have you connected your PC to Bluetooth speakers?

    2. Do you recognize the device that is connected to your PC?

    3. Does the Bluetooth device display under Control Panel > Devices and Printers?



    For now, I suggest that you perform the steps below and check if you will be able to remove the device in question.

    To remove the device from your PC, follow the steps below

    • Select Start > Settings > Devices >
      Bluetooth.
    • Select the paired Bluetooth device that you want to remove > Remove device >
      Yes.

    Your reply is very important to ensure that we provide the appropriate resolution. Do provide the above information so that we can proceed further.

    Regards
