Windows 10 Bluetooth Drivers

Hi Russ,

Welcome to Microsoft Community. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated. 

I understand that you need Bluetooth driver for Asus Notebook A43S on Windows 10. I will be happy to assist with this.

Please be informed that Asus USB-BT400 Wireless Bluetooth Adapter is compatible with Windows 10 using the below link.

Please follow the below methods and check if that helps.

Method 1: Run the hardware troubleshooter. Follow these steps:

1. Press the ‘Windows + W’ key on the keyboard.
2. Type troubleshooter in the search box and then press enter.
3. Click hardware and sound and run the hardware and device troubleshooter.

Method 2: Update the latest Bluetooth drivers from the manufacturer’s website. If Windows 10 drivers are not available, you can install Windows 8 drivers in compatibility mode. Follow these steps:

1. Press the ‘Windows + W’ key on the keyboard.
2. Type compatibility in the search box and then press enter.
3. Click “Run programs made for previous versions of Windows” option from the list appeared in the left side.
4. Select the drivers and install.

No Help...  Thank you for your answer...  But, I have already done everything you suggested...

Even tried to install a driver for an earlier Windows... say Windows 7 - 64 bit.... and Windows 10 "STOPPED" me from installing a earlier driver that was Not compatible with Windows 10... because I already have the installed newest driver in my computer...

So, to select a driver and make it run in the compatibility mode... Impossible... I tried... and no driver is shown...

Device manager shows the Qualcomm Atheros Communications version 8.0.1.244 driver... this is the up-dated driver Windows 10 selected for my notebook... I guess - Not compatible with Windows 10 or Not correct for Asus computer... either way... my Bluetooth adapter isn't working...

So, either Microsoft needs to get on the ball here and get of Bluetooth drivers out here... for Windows 10...

Your, I am still waiting for Asus to answer me about Drivers for my notebook with Windows 10 installed...

because now I cannot transfer music and photo's back and fourth between my notebook and phone... 

I also have a similar issue with the Asus Bluetooth module on my motherboard. I have the same driver (8.0.1.244) installed and I get this every time I start my pc:

To temporarily resolve the issue I have to uninstall the module and the driver, then do a hardware scan. Windows then detects the module and installs the driver (8.0.1.244) without a problem. I can then use the Bluetooth as intended, so I know that module works perfectly. If I want to use Bluetooth I have to do this every time and it's getting a little boring now... I had no problems what so ever in Windows 7 Pro, so as far as I'm concerned this is a Microsoft generated problem. I have had a live chat session with a Microsoft tech :D :D :D and they just try to blame the hardware saying that it's broken, yet Windows 10 installs it and it works fine. **** Microsoft?!

Just to add; I have also tried updating the driver to version 8.0.1.318 but that just made things worse. It would just start to install then the yellow exclamation mark appeared, then start to install, then yellow exclamation mark...... and so on and on and on. Fantastic hey?!

So to conclude then... Microsoft sucks!!

same for me this sucks

Hi Everyone, I see I am not the only one having this problem. I am having it on a new Vensmile micro pc that I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 before I did anything.

WINDOWS HAS STOPPED THIS DEVICE BECAUSE IT HAS REPORTED PROBLEMS.

(CODE 43).

It obviously needs a driver. It obviously can't find the driver. Can anyone find the driver???????????

Can anyone please help us.

Thank you

George

I'm not convinced this is a driver issue. All I do to get my Bluetooth working is go to device manager and uninstall the Bluetooth module (not the driver too as I said in my previous post), then scan for new hardware and windows correctly installs it without a problem... every time.

I think this issue is to do with when and how windows scans for hardware changes. I just wish Microsoft would address the stupid little issues, because it's these sorts of things that give them a bad reputation...

I need the newest Window 10 Bluetooth drivers... (1) Windows removed the Asus Bluetooth drivers and installed some generic drivers (*error) device not working properly

(2) I went through the up-date drivers at the device manager tab and Windows found driver Qualcomm Atheros Communications version 8.0.1.244 * (No Help) (error) device not working properly.

(3) Off to Asus Support and downloaded their requested Bluetooth driver from Rainbowpeak_win7-64... but, Windows 10 STOPPED me from installing this driver and gave me an error message... This Driver not compatible with my computer and will not make it work...

So, I have Asus Notebook A43S ( K43SV) OS Windows 10... What Bluetooth Driver do I need..?
