I was able to pair my Windows 8.1 Smartphone. Brandon, I've just noticed this morning (on the iPAQ) that if you have the Bluetooth service TURNED OFF, for example to conserve battery power, then you will experience lock-up of the device immediately after selecting a Bluetooth device on the Widcomm pop-up browser window. The Bluetooth is still installed and I cannot add my keyboard. At some point I have noticed that the programs in the start menu disappeared. It started uninstalling the previous version which took strangely long. I disabled that startup item, bluetooth still works, and now Tbird lets me type in it. I found that a startup item, my Widcomm/Broadcom Bluetooth software, specifially BTTray.exe, is the culprit.

Select Cancel and you get the same message again so I selected Cancel the second time. Yesterday, I wanted to update the WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software for the Dell Wireless 375 Bluetooth Module for my E6410. Thanks so much for this - I can't believe in 25 years of using Windows I've been lucky enough to not have had to use this troubleshooter. When I uninstalled that, the problem went away on multiple computers. We found that the problem was specific to some new Dell Latitude E4310 laptops, which use a Broadcom chipset for Bluetooth connectivity, known as the Wireless 375 Bluetooth Module. Sometimes it wouldnt connect, sometimes it would connect, but then instantly disconnect, sometimes it would break altogether and I would have to restart both computer and the headset. 'I found the problem- 'WIDCOMM Bluetooth Software'. I have tried to find the file and even tried to expand the MSI in the exe. PSA: If you have bluetooth problems, try uninstalling WIDCOMM software (XPS 9350) I had very annoying problems with bluetooth headset. I went to Uninstall or change a program and selected the Windcomm Bluetooth Software.

The Targus install is the ACB10US1_driver_win7-Win8_202121011.exe So I thought let's uninstall the Bluetooth driver. The keyboard works fine with my Windows 8.1 work laptop. That didn't work Try again and make sure that your keyboard is still discoverable. Now the HP K4000 keyboard that had been working will no longer connect.

I am using a Targus Bluetooth dongle for my Dell Laptop because the built in stopped working after a couple of Windows 10 updates 60 days past upgrade.
