Bluetooth can not pair without PIN since creators update

Hi,

Do you only experience this issue when pairing this specific mouse? Let's try using the Add to Personal Area Network feature to pair this particular mouse. Here's how:

1. Right click the Bluetooth icon in the bottom-right corner of the screen, and select Add to Personal Area Network.
2. On the top-left corner of the screen, click Add a new Bluetooth device.
3. Press the sync button on your mouse and wait for the device to appear. When it appears, select it and click Next.
4. Leave the PIN text box blank, and click Next.
5. Restart your computer, and then try pairing the mouse again.

If the issue persists, we suggest that you update your device drivers especially the Bluetooth mouse driver. If Windows doesn't find a new driver, you can try looking for one on the device manufacturer's website and follow their instructions.

If you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to post a reply.

Do you have any solutions for this?

I will be trying this coming weekend.

I have the the same problem. I have used a Microsoft wireless entertainment keyboard 7000 for years and now it won't connect without a PIN. I was online with Microsoft support and they could not solve the problem. I am thinking of getting a new bluetooth keyboard but I am wondering if that will have the same problem. Btw my existing keyboard will pair easily with my Samsung smart phone so it is not the keyboard.

Same issue with MS Intellimouse Bluetooth.

I have one Win10 Creators Edition that pairs fine, no issues.

I have another that keeps asking for a PIN, and that is the computer to which the mouse was previously paired, never before asked for a PIN, no way to enter no PIN.
