Bluetooth Driver Installer is a tool that you can use to fix Windows when it won’t recognize a particular Bluetooth device.
Bluetooth Driver Installer is a Windows tool. It doesn’t require installation, and you can simply extract the compressed archive it comes packaged in and run it from there. What the program will do is uninstall any existing Bluetooth driver, if applicable, and then install the latest version of the generic Bluetooth driver for Windows.
A driver is a program that lets devices communicate with Windows. The generic Bluetooth driver supports the basic Bluetooth standard. Some devices that offer advanced functionality require a different driver, and while that driver will support that particular device, it can cause problems with Windows recognizing other Bluetooth devices, which is where Bluetooth Driver Installer comes in.
It’s worth mentioning that this program doesn’t do anything you couldn’t do yourself through the tools that the Windows operating system provides. That said, this is a tool for casual computer users who lack the know-how or simply don’t want the hassle. The program is easy to use, and when it works, it works fast and reliably. However, compatibility can be a bit hit or miss depending on a wide range of environmental factors.
If Bluetooth Driver Installer doesn’t work, it won’t exacerbate the problem. Of course, whenever you’re dealing with drivers, there’s always the potential for an issue. The good news is that Bluetooth Driver Installer accounts for this through the Windows Restore mechanism. Users don’t even need to know how to use Restore. The program will automatically create a restore point, and if there’s an issue, you can have Bluetooth Driver Installer revert to that point with the click of a button.
