Windows 10: Standard serial over Bluetooth link

Hello,As mentioned in https://blog.bachi.net/?p=9700, Bluetooth SPP opens two ports when pairing a device: An incoming port is used when a remote device established a connection to your device, and is exposed as the SerialPort service to the remote device.An outgoing port is used to make a connection to the serial port service on a remote device.Is there a way to modify this behavior and specify to open just one of the two e.g. incoming port, telling Windows in advanced that the remote device is establishing the connection ? I am specially interested also if it

:)

What are these links? Does each one connect to a new bluetooth device or are they just phatom ones using up ports?

I have six standard serial over bluetooth links using up COMS 10, 11, 3, 4, 6, 9

I only have 2 bluetooth devices. One is a sport headphone which I sometimes use with my laptop and the other is a mini mobile speaker. Therefore should there only be 2 ports used for this?

Thanks

Noreen

I did go in and delete (uninstall) all audio drivers for bluetooth device except for the Windows and Intel ones.

I really need step-by-step instructions. I am so ignorant with tech stuff.

Thanks, Noreen
