Fix 1: Update your Bluetooth driver

Bluetooth needs the supporting hardware and software to work. When you're sure your computer is Bluetooth capable but you somehow can't use it, the most likely cause is a Bluetooth driver problem.

Fortunately, this is also the easiest problems to fix.

There are two ways to update your Bluetooth driver -- manually or automatically.

Update your Bluetooth driver manually -- You can update your Bluetooth driver manually by going to the hardware manufacturer’s website, and searching for the latest driver for your Bluetooth. But if you take this approach, be sure to choose the driver that's compatible with the exact model number of your hardware, and your version of Windows.

Update your Bluetooth driver automatically -- If you don’t have the time, patience or skills to update your driver manually, you can, instead, do it automatically with Driver Easy. You don’t need to know exactly what system your computer is running, you don’t need to risk downloading and installing the wrong driver, and you don’t need to worry about making a mistake when installing. Driver Easy handles it all.

  1. Download and install Driver Easy.
  2. Run Driver Easy and click Scan Now. Driver Easy will then scan your computer and detect any problem drivers.
