v2004 and Bluetooth

johnpd · 18 Nov 2020

Ever since the 2nd Tuesday update last week for v2004, I have been having an issue with Bluetooth connecting to more than one device simultaneously at times. I have a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse. When this problem arises, one or the other shows as only "Paired" while the other shows properly as "Connected". In order to fix it, I have to turn off Bluetooth and turn it back on (using an old USB mouse) and then it reconnects. I seemed to remember having seen some report about this issue. Any ideas?

Win10 v19041.630.

John,

Several people have successfully cleared the decks then re-setup their BT devices using these tools [the most comprehensive set of BT tools I've come across]
Bluetooth command line tools - BluetoothInstaller

Several people rave about these tools from post #9 onwards in
How to completely remove a Bluetooth device - TenForums
and they seem, to me, to be the closest we are going to find to a complete BT reset.

All I had to do when I had a problem was delete every BT device from Control panel, Devices & printers and that was enough for me to resolve matters. But other people needed to run through using that BT toolset.
