I’ve been struggling with my Realtek Bluetooth adapter randomly disconnecting after a driver update. Has anyone found a specific version that works reliably?
Where did you get your driver update from? If I cannot get one directly from the manufacturer of the adapter, (and it doesn’t look like Realtek has Bluetooth drivers on their website,) I would download it from the PC manufacturer’s site.
What driver version are you currently using?
Can you downgrade to the previous version if it was working?
Ever since my Dad got me a gaming rig I've been having trouble with the Bluetooth drivers. Anytime I want to connect anything like wireless headphones, it simply will not connect, or when I try to use a controller there is this weird thing where horrible input lag will kick in out of nowhere and mess up my controller for 15 seconds or so. This isn't exclusive to games but also emulators, I know it's not the controllers because I've use different controllers from different platforms and each works fine on their respected platform and even my old potato laptop from 2014. All of this information combined leads me to believe it's the drivers.
According to the device manager my PC uses Realtek Bluetooth. Though I went to the site and downloaded updated drivers, but nothing has changed.
PS: Both my old laptop and My gaming rig uses Windows 10. Also, I've only been using Windows 10 frequently since 2019 and have been PC gaming for just as much time, I only got this new PC a few months ago. Forgive my ignorance and or misinterpretation of certain things.
So i built a new pc a few weeks ago and have been using my bose qc ultras with my realtek bluetooth adapter without any issues so far. That was untill yesterday at least when all of a sudden after a restart they wouldnt connect anymore. Windows is giving me error code 31 saying it cant load the drivers for this device. I ran the troubleshoot which apparently reset all the drivers - same issues. I reinstalled the latest drivers manually - still nothing.
Any other ideas i could try?
