Hi @Matthew060,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

It sounds like your HP 240 Bluetooth mouse isn't automatically reconnecting to your Windows 10 (22H2) laptop after startup, which can be frustrating. This Bluetooth device issue can often be resolved with a few adjustments.

Steps to Fix Bluetooth Mouse Not Reconnecting Automatically:

  1. Update Bluetooth Drivers
    HP has released updated Bluetooth drivers for Windows 10 22H2. You can download the latest version here:
    👉 Intel Bluetooth Driver update v. 22.190.0.2 for Windows 10 22H2 | HP® Support
     
  2. Enable Bluetooth Auto-Connect
    • Go to Device Manager → expand Bluetooth.
    • Right-click your HP 240 Mouse → Properties.
    • Under the Power Management tab, uncheck:
       "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power."
       
  3. Set Bluetooth Support Service to Automatic
    • Press Win + R, type services.msc, and press Enter.
    • Find Bluetooth Support Service.
    • Right-click → Properties → Set Startup type to Automatic.
    • Click Start if the service isn’t running.
       
  4. Pair the Mouse Again with "Connect Automatically"
    • Remove the mouse from Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices.
    • Re-pair it, and during pairing, ensure the system is set to connect automatically.
       
  5. Run HP’s Bluetooth Troubleshooter
    HP provides a full guide for Bluetooth issues here: 👉 HP PCs - Troubleshooting a Bluetooth connection in Windows 10 | HP® Support

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.

Hello,

I ran the Bluetooth troubleshooter and it found an issue and fixed it, restarted the laptop and the mouse stayed connected to windows 10 22H2, I will give it a couple of days to see if the issue comes back.
