Unable to turn off bluetooth in Windows 10

Hi Bebe Grant,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

As per the issue description it seems that you are unable to turn off Bluetooth in Windows 10. As you are worried because your computer is searching for devices to connect with.

So, here is one way through which you can stop your computer to search for Bluetooth devices. This can be done by stopping the Bluetooth services which is responsible for Bluetooth devices. Here are the steps through which you can stop Bluetooth service
and Bluetooth devices to work.

• Press Windows key + R
• Type services.msc and press
  Ok
• Find Bluetooth Support Service
  
• Right click on the service and click on Stop.

Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we will be happy to assist you.

I don't have any bluetooth devices but windows turned it on!!


Then if they are still on, try some of these steps listed below, Not all of these steps may not apply, but, step #2 and #4 should help. I have all 4 steps on myself.

1 Go to Device manager and DISABLE Bluetooth, Do Not remove!
2 Turn USB suspend off
3 Set Hard Drive or SSD to Never
4 Turn Link State Power Management off
Settings 2 thur 4 can be found in your Power Management Settings.
Then click on "Change settings that are currently unavailable"
Then Reboot your Computer. This does work, may come back if you shut OFF your computer,then turn it back on, if it does, just a reboot will turn it off again.
