    How to enter bluetooth device passkey into Windows 10


    Trying to pair a bluetooth device (Kindle tablet) to my desktop PC. Bluetooth turned on in both devices. Tablet show my computer's name and provides a passkey that Windows 10 must use. When I go to Devices and Printers, Bluetooth...Windows will search for devices, list an unknown one, but I see nowhere to give it the passkey to use. I tried Add Device, but it only searches. Does not ask for passkey. Where do I enter passkey information for a bluetooth device into Windows 10?

    :)

  2. Unable to pair Bluetooth-enabled serial device to Windows 10 (1607) PC over incoming Bluetooth serial port - Passcode window does not appear

    Starting in Windows 10 (version 1607), I am unable to pair my Bluetooth-enabed serial device to PCs. When this issue occurs, I can search for discoverable Bluetooth devices from my device and find the PC I want and attempt to pair to it. The Windows PC will
    give the usual "tap here to to add device" prompt, but instead of displaying the PASSKEY window where I can enter my device's PASSKEY, it only opens the Bluetooth Settings window, so I am unable to enter my PASSKEY. PCs are using the Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator
    and various drivers (Intel, Dell, Realtek, Marvell, etc.) and are configured with an incoming Bluetooth serial port.

    My device utilizes the serial port profile (SPP) of the Bluetooth specification and will always initiate discovery. This is the methodology of pairing for all Windows PCs. PCs that wish to connect to my device must respond to the Discovery request from my
    device and must support a standardized PASSKEY for authentication and encryption (The PASSKEY can be set by the user on my device). Using this method, my device will send out a Discovery. The PC will respond with its identification including the friendly name.
    The user selects the desired PC and my device will request to complete this trusted pair and challenge the PC to produce a passkey. If the PASSKEY that the PC responds with matches my device PASSKEY, then my device will create this trusted pair and complete
    the connection process.

    This worked perfectly in previous versions of Windows 10 and all preceding Windows operating systems going back to Windows XP.

    I have updated to the latest build (14393.576) and the issue remains -- no window received to enter the PASSKEY.

  3. Bluetooth passkey generater

    My phone is asking for the passkey for the Bluetooth connection to my computer. Where do I find the passkey on my computer? Windows 10 / Dell Inspiron

    My two devices see each other.

    On my Dell I click the "Pair" button, I get a window message to input the passkey for the phone. I do and it works, the phone then asks for the passkey for the Dell. This is where I stop. I do not know where to find the passkey for the Dell Bluetooth connection.
