Why is Windows 10 Bluetooth so so so bad ?

I am sick of connecting through Bluetooth on my Windows 10

  1. Disconnects automatically randomly
  2. Bluetooth is on but can't connect to the device because it tells that your bluetooth is off.
  3. Devices appear when bluetooth is toggled off, disappear when toggled on.
  4. Nothing happens no matter what you try. The only solution is to restart your device.
  5. After restarting, works for some time. Then randomly ... (please start from point 1 again).

I am so sick of this happening everytime. How can it be so bad? Is Microsoft doing absolutely nothing to fix this.

It makes me want to throw my laptop and pull out my hair. Then I remember, how stupid of me. This has got to do with my Windows, software. How will throwing my laptop help. And then I remember again; if it's a software - it can be fixed! Fix it please!! You made such a huge operating system, you can maybe fix a bluetooth.

PS - I'll check this thread later. I need to restart my system again, need to connect to bluetooth

    Agreed. Not to mention bluetooth is a standard. Devices can expect it to work the same way every time just like 802.11n. While there are multiple devices that use bluetooth, they all use it the same way so Windows should get onboard. Even my dang xbox controller is a pain to connect to Windows.

    My Samsung phone connects to multiple bluetooth devices flawlessly and automatically.

    I am tired of this s**t. Why do I have to pay for something that DOESN'T work at the first place? Microsoft couldn't care less about their users!

    I find all BT technology totally dysfunctional. Its not that it doesnt work its just so hit and miss, working oneday then unable to connect the next no matter what you do. you pair a device on windows 10 and next time you start up its gone or you get the message ..."something went wrong...". I know what went wrong buying a windows laptop/device.

    Its insane how bad and unreliable this incredibly important piece of the OS is. How about more ads? Or maybe they can shove Edge down my throat a few more times? Bluetooth, something that has significant importance to so many? Nah.

    Microsoft probably has some stock in Bluetooth adapters. I have tried absolutely everything to get my bluetooth back after latest Windows update. Nothing. These employees just push updates because they need something to keep them employed. I have only used this computer, Dell, a few months, and now I have to buy an external adapter. I wish these people would actually do something beneficial or useful, but that won't happen.
