    "one or more devices connected to your PC needs additional software to work properly"


    Hello to everybody,


    After many attempts, the first of my Windows 10 Pro 1809 installations finally updated to 1903.


    Now I get "one or more devices connected to your PC needs additional software to work properly" + a button to click "Install" showing the administrator shield (in Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Security and Maintenance).


    Expanding the Maintenance field shows: All drivers are working properly.


    I checked the device manager: everything is working

    I checked the reliability monitor: 37 successful driver installations, no failure.


    Well, if everything is ok, what is this message for? Which is this mysterious "additional software"? Why ist Microsoft so secretive about it?


    I checked this Community too. Seems as if the subject has been mentioned in 2015 with no solution at all. Somebody even said: "..., you can just hit install. There is nothing to worry about."


    That's like putting the hand into a snake hole and hoping the snake will not bite.


    Do you know where to find this information? Maybe I do not want to install this "additional software" when I know what it is.


    It would be nice if you could help me.


    Thanks in advance

    Dan

    :)

    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
