WIn 10 Bluetooth Adaptor Pairs But Won’t Connect

Win 10 x64 Version10.0.19045 Build 19045 Asus Z270-A MB

I had a working Bluetooth adaptor (2.0) that was configured to use my Echo as a speaker. It worked fine up to a recent Windows upgrade though not sure which one. It stopped working at which point I tried another v2.0, bought another generic v5.0 and finally bought a TP-Link v5.0. All showed the same steps. They would pair but when you connected it would try for about three seconds and then revert to “paired”.

I have done the following many times

  • Put the Bluetooth receiver in every USB socket there is including V3.0 and v2.0
  • Uninstalled the devices and let windows install the drivers again
  • Deleted every connect device and rebooted
  • Run sfc /Scannow and no issues found
  • Uninstalled the USB root hub and removed the driver at the same time
  • Downloaded the Asus Chip set drivers and installed them again
  • Downloaded the TP-Link driver and installed it

What can I do to resolve this?

The device manager shows this

The device shows this

    Hi Heathcliff(2)

    Sorry for the misunderstanding, I mean if we have tried your Bluetooth speaker on a different device like your mobile phone. (I guess it does have Bluetooth, right?)

    And if the Windows clean boot works, we can then see which APP/driver is causing this issue and maybe disable/remove it; but if it does not work, might be we should considering a Windows reset for next:

    Hi Chandy

    Another piece of information

    The Event Viewer has this many times.

    The mutual authentication between the local Bluetooth adapter and a device with Bluetooth adapter address (3c:01:ef:bf:e4:e2) failed.

    Any ideas?

    Hi Chandy

    Yes the Bluetooth speaker was originally talking to the PC. I also have it connected to the mobile and it plays ok.

    Just done the Clean Boot and the same results. I uninstalled the adapter just in case and scanned for it again. The correct driver was loaded but it failed to start.

    I noticed it did keep my anti-virus running in the clean boot.

    Was there anything else I should have tried/looked for?

    Hi Chandy

    Thank you for responding to this. I did the first section as you requested. Details below. I had the same issue on restarting as in there was an ambiguous identification and the Bluetooth device not started.

    I don't have another machine to test the adapter on but I have tried four different adapters and they can't all be suspect. I am looking to find somewhere to test it but not sure where yet.

    I've read the clean boot instructions and just to be sure, having never done this before, what should I attempt to do once I have done the clean boot. Re-install the drivers? Look for some log files?

    Let me know and I can then try it later. I can send the CBS.log as well if that helps.

    Many thanks

    Hi Heathcliff(2)

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community

    May I know if you have used DISM before SFC? If not, please use the command below first, reboot Windows and then try SFC again:

    Press the start key and type the word CMD, right-click at the command prompt and select Run as administrator, type the following commands in sequence and press Enter:

    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    •- DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

    •- sfc /scannow

    .- then restart your computer

    Also, does the Bluetooth device works on another machine, like your mobile phone? If it does work, I think we can try a Windows clean boot to see if there is any confliction:

    How to perform a clean boot in Windows

    Disclaimer: A "clean boot" starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. It helps to determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program and to isolate the cause of a problem.

    These steps of "clean boot" might look complicated at first glance. However, to avoid any trouble for you, please follow them in order and step-by step so that it will help you get you back on track.
