    Turn off bluetooth when laptop sleeping


    I have a Dell Inspiron 16, purchased about 6 months ago and running Windows 11 Home. When I close the lid the laptop goes into sleep mode, but bluetooth continues to be active, which can make it difficult to pair my headset to my phone. I've verified that the bluetooth driver "can be turned off to save power" in Device Manager. Any way to make the driver turn off when the computer is sleeping?

    :)

    Bluetooth will not connect when the PC wakes up from sleep on Windows 10.

    You mentioned that Bluetooth isn't working only if the computer have just been activated after sleep. To further isolate the issue, we suggest that you turn off hibernation. Follow this step by step instructions:

    • Right click on the Start Menu button, and choose Command Prompt (Admin)
    • Enter the following line: powercfg /h off
    • Press Enter.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Thank you.
