I am unable to change the name of my bluetooth ear buds. I have tried the control panel/hardware and devices/ properties but there is no "bluetooth" tab or option to rename. I am using Win 11 Home Version 10.0.22621 Build 22621. Please help.

    If it is not an audio device, I do not have a bluetooth tab :-(

    Thanks for the tip although my IT department has blocked that app and I dare say others that work in medium to large organisations will face the same issue.

    I finally found it. It's easy, we just need to go to device manager and press the "action" menu at the top then select the device and printer. Then the connected devices will appear. Select the device you want to rename then right click and select the properties menu. Then move to the bluetooth tab and we can change the name there. Don't forget to press apply and ok and reconnect the device
