bluetooth folder replicates

[bimini]

HI,

HP Folio 13, Win7 64 bits:

The bluetooth exchange folder keeps on replicating itself, even though I never use it. What can I do to stop it and even hide it as a folder.

Thanks

Evelyne

Hi,

That is odd, i do not see that happening on my unit, but it could be that you have another bluetooth device nearby and it is attempting to transfer data.

You can try this:

click on the start button and type in "bluetooth"
Click on Change Bluetooth Settings
Click on Shared Folder tab

Uncheck the setting "allow remote devices to browse shared folder", click Apply then ok
Now delete the bluetooth exchange folder

As an alternative - if you do not use bluetooth you can turn it off which will give you a little more battery life
 
Click the start button and type in "network"
click on "network and sharing center"
click on "change adapter settings"
right click on "Bluetooth Network Connection" and select "disable"
