Why is Windows 10 Bluetooth so so so bad ?

Completely agree. One of the biggest challenges in "trouble shooting" is the statement to: "disable and enable bluetooth."

Okay, first, should not have to do that so routinely. Secondly, 99% of the time, once you "turn off" the option to "turn on" completely disappears. Then, one is stuck with such frustration to get it back. Often reboots do not help, one may try services.msc or devmgmt.msc - be sure to "show hidden" since it is now off. Even still, no luck there. Using headphones seems to be the primary aspect, yes? My keyboard & mouse are working, clearly - even now that it says i have no blue tooth period.

Uninstalling & reinstalling is a pain...

This is so simple MicroSlop and so many concerns\complaints on Windows 10 for this aspect.

What is the hold up what one would hope is a big challenge for your consumers. Why bother with this OS if it cannot do even simple things like not have "on/off" disappear - come on. Why does it disappear? Why is that one of your primary resolutions when clearly the option just vanishes to turn it back on. Do you even use or trouble shoot the actual issue or are you just spouting redderik.

Seems likely that folks at Micro Soft are not even using their own platform as most the time you don't help the user and your options are not even what you say they are. Why can you not simply fix three really easy things we all liked about Windows.

1> Bluetooth issues.

2> Tertiary monitors go blank (nearly always monitor 2 even if you have three of them - tip: Shift+Ctrl+Windows+B resets the drivers and restores your monitors without mucking around too much.

3> Screen saver is only on Monitor 1. Really gang? I still use my XP box as it continues to be the most stable Windows platform in my opinion. And guess what, zero bluetooth issues, zero monitor adapter issues, and my screen saver hits all monitors.

"Now, all you have to do is to go into the Settings app and turn the Bluetooth adapter on. Ta da, you're done. Presuming that you're not the type who messes around in Device Manager, the Windows registry or other internal settings, you've done everything you need to do to get Bluetooth up and running on Windows. That was easy!"

Yeah, that happened 5 years ago.  Now I go into the settings app, and turn the bluetooth adapter on.  Ta da, I'm not done.  The device doesn't show up.  Call the device company and after 7 hours some whiz kid tells you the magic to make this particular device show up on windows.  Until it disconnects and disappears.  And then you send it back, because you bought it for use on the computer, so now it's no use to you.  So, now that it's gone somehow it's showing up again.  Try to remove the device.  Well, I did 90 minutes ago.  Still thinking about it.

I've yet to come across a more drastic failure by a technology company than this. Period. Beyond frustrating.

What's "beyond frustrating" is actually the Bluetooth part, not the Windows part. The Windows part is drop-dead easy.

This is the Windows part: Your PC either shipped with a Bluetooth adapter (i.e., installed by the factory) or it did not. If it did not, you can buy a Bluetooth adapter (aka Bluetooth dongle) and plug it into a USB port on the computer.

If your PC shipped with a Bluetooth adapter, the manufacturer installed the driver at the factory. If you bought an adapter, the driver either came in the box or (more likely) you downloaded it from the manufacturer's website and installed it yourself.

Now, all you have to do is to go into the Settings app and turn the Bluetooth adapter on. Ta da, you're done. Presuming that you're not the type who messes around in Device Manager, the Windows registry or other internal settings, you've done everything you need to do to get Bluetooth up and running on Windows. That was easy!

Now we come to the frustrating part: dealing with the Bluetooth technology, which is completely separate from Windows. Here's where you need to deal with pairing and connecting, master and slave, multi-point and choosing profiles. And if you think that all Bluetooth headphones or earbuds or keyboards, etc. work the same way ... guess what? You'll need to do a lot of hit and miss and phone calls to the Bluetooth device's manufacturer before you finally get your device to work properly and reliably.

It shouldn't be that hard. But to make everything easier, competing hardware manufacturers would have to actually cooperate to synchronize their technologies. Like that's gonna happen. Do you remember the frustration that came with burning CDs years ago? Bluetooth is not any better.

Bluetooth devices can work great, but to get there you have to come up with the proper settings and sequences of how you use the devices and then do not change a thing - nothing.

Nearly 3 years later and Microsoft has done nothing to address this issue.

My Galaxy Buds Pro work flawlessly with every other device I've tried them with. Android, Iphone, Linux, my bluetooth piano, you name it.

Yet when trying to use them with Windows, I experience issues nearly constantly on every computer I've tried.

-Unable to find bluetooth device

-Unable to connect to new device

-Unable to connect to a previously paired device

-Randomly decides it is no longer an audio device

-Randomly disconnects

-Connects but does not work

-Unable to remove a paired device

I'm pretty sure I've encountered issues with every aspect of bluetooth. Issues that ONLY occur on Windows.

It is unacceptable that Microsoft has done nothing to remedy these issues. Bluetooth is an essential feature for many peoples workflows.

Every problem I have with Windows makes the switch to POP OS look more and more tempting. I'm thinking this will be my final Windows device.
