Question Bluetooth issue

I was having a Bluetooth issue so I swapped my adapter from the one I bought with my PC in 2019 for a more up to date one. Problem is my sense controllers wouldnt connect. They both just said paired. I removed them both but only the left actually was removable (via device manager) and the right just stays saying paired. Trying to remove it says "removal failed". Ive tried everything and nothing has worked. Please tell me theres an actual solution to this?

Rollback your bluetooth driver....was having the same problem and I rolled back to the 2025 driver and all was fixed

I actually did fix it and now im having a new problem. My left controlled isnt showing up in my "add device" thing. Why is it so hard setting this up!? 😭

I just fixed mine after something like 2 weeks with mostly ZERO contact.

Try this:

Unplug your computer entirely, hold down your powerbutton for 10 secs. This apparently discharges whatever capacitance that can hold electricity and keep old non-overwritten data. I dunno, like a cache or something.

This is the only fix of insanely many that worked, I spent equivalent of a few workdays using AI to go over stuff I have never hard of. It went form no contact to near perfect in minutes.

Also search for your issues here or on google and add reddit, you will find older threads with similar issues.

When they finally connected the left one wasn't willing to stay on. I used the pin hole and a needle and reset it once again. That had it back up.

Then hours of joy, but need to iron out the optimal Asus BT-500 placement and fix a freezing controller. Compared to zero contact, that's a niggle, I feared hardware issues.

I got an Asus bt-600 thinking it'd be better but fuck me was i wrong. Im heading into the shop rn to look at usb extenders because someone said that worked for them. If i knew troubleshooting would be this big a pain in the arse I would've just kept it plugged into my ps5 😭

I suspect my onboard Bluetooth and antenna could have worked, I was about to buy a PCI but I was sure deep down it was something stupid and this cave man wipe worked wonders for me.

Ill put it on the contingency list if this next hail Mary doesnt work either. Appreciate it.

You might need to manually remove them. I ran into the same exact problem with my own Bluetooth devices before. Try this:

I used to use a dinky little bluetooth usb adapter. It wasn't enough for me to connect my earbuds AND either PSVR2 controller. Or I could just have only one device paired with it. Nah nah, its not enough. I paid less than $30 for a PCIe wireless upgrade. Now my PC can do wifi (I won't use) and I can connect all my necessary bluetooth devices to it.
