Turn on Bluetooth visibility

Time required: 5 minutes.

One of the main reasons devices fail to sync via Bluetooth is due to lack of visibility. That is, Bluetooth is on, but invisible; that way, the other devices cannot find it and establish a connection. To fix this, follow the tutorial below.

Find system settings

Access your Windows search bar and when the list of applications appears, look for the gear icon and click on it: the page will direct you to the system settings;

Access the indicated option

Among the available buttons, look for “Devices” and select it;

Start the Bluetooth setup process

The first thing you have to do is confirm that Bluetooth is turned on: if not, click on the indicated button and activate it. Then look for the button “More Bluetooth options” and click on it;

Complete visibility enablement

Check the indicated box, which allows the visibility of your connection, and click on the “Apply” button to save the changes and configure your computer system.

Make sure the connection is active

Sometimes Windows identifies problems with one of the software systems and chooses to shut them down. Therefore, it is possible that you are unable to use Bluetooth because the operating system has identified an error and turned it off.

Use your keyboard and type “Windows + R” to trigger a search bar in the left corner of your screen. Then, click on the text field and type “services.msc” (without quotes) and click on “Ok”; When the list opens, click on a white space with the mouse, activate the “CTRL + F” function, type “Bluetooth” in the search bar and locate the item in the list. When you find it, right-click on it and then go to the “Properties” tab; In the “Startup type” tab, select the “Automatic” option. Then confirm everything by clicking “Apply” and then “Ok”; Finally, restart your computer and try pairing the device again.

It is still possible to carry out other methods that can help you to recover your Bluetooth connection, as is the case, for example, updating the driver, reinstalling the card driver, using the Windows problem analysis, etc.
