Windows 10 Unable to rename bluetooth device in device and printers

I had the same issue -- as a shortcut to reading the whole thread, my issue was that it looks like the change is not sticking, until you power-cycle your Bluetooth device (disconnect, power down, power up, reconnect). This worked perfectly after renaming
through Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers and right clicking the device and going to the last tab.

(copy "Control Panel\Hardware and Sound\Devices and Printers" and paste it in file explorer)

 

windows 10 VERY slow when trying to open Devices & Printers?

Some things you can try:

- Uninstall Realtek audio drivers and allow Windows to install its drivers instead.
- Uninstall HP printer drivers, see if Windows has drivers or install latest 8/10 drivers.
- Disable Bluetooth service in services.msc.
- Remove any network devices not connected to or using any longer.
- Remove all USB devices, uninstall printers, delete network devices, verify it starts without extra stuff enabled.
- Download and use DevNodeClean: http://www.tenforums.com/drivers-hardware/10390-devices-printers-slow-open-2.html#post671260
- If in pro, go to Print Management and remove any old printer drivers, if you have any.
- If you are unable to remove the driver from there, follow this guide to printui: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...-windows/6700d817-cfb7-4d94-904e-25bc8f435c7f
