cannot rename bluetooth device on Win 11

Hi dear, My name is Erfan and I'm really sorry that you're experiencing this issue but I'll be more than happy to help!

May I ask what steps did you take?

Have you tried all of these steps: https://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/rena...

Please restart your PC after taking those steps ( before checking if it changed).

Please let me know how it goes and please do not hesitate to let me know if you needed any further assistance.

Thanks,

Erfan

Thanks for the response . Here is what I have tried. Following many different instructions found when I search for "Rename a bluetooth device in Win 11"

Here is my Windows information:

Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 22H2
Installed on ‎10/‎6/‎2022
OS build 22621.1702
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22641.1000.0

Steps attempted:

Desktop PC connected successfully to bluetooth earbuds Zvox AV30

Windows+R

Control Panel

Hardware and sound

View Devices and printers

select "ZVOX AV30"

properties

There is no option to rename "ZVOX AV30" My wife also has a pair of the same model earbud and we need to apply a unique name to differentiate between her pair and mine.

Please try the following steps to rename your Bluetooth earbuds:

Click on the Start button and select "Settings" (gear icon).

In the Settings window, click on "Devices" and then select "Bluetooth & devices."

In the list of paired devices, find the ZVOX AV30 earbuds and click on the three dots (...) next to the device name.

Select "Rename" from the drop-down menu.

Type in the new name for the earbuds and press the "Enter" key on your keyboard to save the new name.

If you do not see the option to rename the device, you may need to update your Bluetooth drivers or check for any Windows updates that may be available.

Please let me know how it goes.

Thanks :)

Tried that and the only options (3 dots) are "disconnect" and "remove device"

Have verified that Win 11 and all bluetooth drivers are up to date. I will next try the ZVOX web site to see if they may have a solution.

If you do not see the option to rename the device through the Settings app, you can also try the following steps:

Press the Windows key + X on your keyboard to open the Quick Link menu.

Select "Device Manager."

Expand the "Bluetooth" section.

Right-click on the ZVOX AV30 earbuds and select "Properties."

In the Properties window, click on the "General" tab.

Click on the "Change settings" button.

In the Bluetooth Properties window, click on the "Advanced" tab.

In the "Device name" field, type in the new name for the earbuds.

Click on the "OK" button to save the new name.
