How to Remove Bluetooth Drivers

When you configure a new Bluetooth device with your computer, you typically have to install a driver to make it work. Once you stop using a Bluetooth device, you can remove the required driver as long as it is not being used by any other Bluetooth devices you are still using. Bluetooth drivers and all other drivers are uninstalled through the Device Manager that is built into all versions of Windows.

Instructions

    • 1

      Click Start > Run. When the Run text window opens, type "devmgmt.msc" and click "OK" to open the Device Manager.

    • 2

      Browse the menu of device categories in the Device Manager and find "Bluetooth Devices." Expand this category by clicking the "+" sign next to it.

    • 3

      Browse the list of devices in this category and identify the ones you do not intend to use anymore. Right click the first one and select "Uninstall" from the pop-up options. When Windows prompts you to confirm the uninstallation, click "Yes."

      Repeat Step 3 for all other Bluetooth devices with drivers you would like to remove. When you are finished, close the Device Manager.
