Windows 10: Renaming a Bluetooth Device Error

So I recently bought a custom controller from Xbox Design Lab, I have been trying to rename it but it keeps saying "Renaming Device Failed". What do I do, Just spent about 95$ on this controller so I would like to rename the device.

cannot rename bluetooth device on Win 11

None of these worked for me as nothing happens when we click on the Bluetooth device in the Settings app (either in the "Bluetooth & devices" section or "Bluetooth & devices > Devices" section. Clicking on the three dots button in front of the device name only gives two options "disconnect" and "remove device".

The Control Panel solution also takes one to the Settings app when we click on the Device and Printers.



SOLUTION:

However, I found that I could rename my Bluetooth device in the Settings app by following the steps given below.

1. Open the Settings app.

2. Select System from the left pane.

3. Select Sound from the right pane.

4. Click on the device, that you want to rename, from the list under "Output" (at the top).

5. At the top, below the device name, click the Rename button.

6. A new dialog will open where you could rename your device.

7. After renaming the device, click on the Rename button in the dialog to confirm.



SUGGESTION:

Please allow the users to rename a Bluetooth device right from the "Bluetooth & devices" section as that's the most convenient way. Clicking on the device should open a device details page where one should be allowed to rename the device. Preferably, the three dots button in front of the Bluetooth device name should list the option to "Rename". Thanks!

Please try the following steps to rename your Bluetooth earbuds:

Click on the Start button and select "Settings" (gear icon).

In the Settings window, click on "Devices" and then select "Bluetooth & devices."

In the list of paired devices, find the ZVOX AV30 earbuds and click on the three dots (...) next to the device name.

Select "Rename" from the drop-down menu.

Type in the new name for the earbuds and press the "Enter" key on your keyboard to save the new name.

If you do not see the option to rename the device, you may need to update your Bluetooth drivers or check for any Windows updates that may be available.

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks
