Hi

 

I have my bluetooth driver installed, and the status showing is: This device is working properly.

 

But when I try to transfer any file from any other device like from my phone, everytime the files could not be sent. The reason it is showing is connection error. Even when I try to transfer any file from my Notebook PC, files could not be sent.

 

Please help.

Thank you.

HI,

 

Thank you for the suggestion. I have tried all the ways which were mentioned in the attached document, but with no luck.

 

I still cannot send or recieve files via bluetooth in my Notebook PC.

 

Please suggest me any other thing.

 

Thank you.

Hi

 

This document has been helpful. But sadly I could not find the two options: "Send a file" and "Receive a file".

So I cannot perform any transfer as shown in the document.

 

My bluetooth driver is: Atheros AR3012 Bluetooth 4.0 + HS Driver for Microsoft Windows.

 

Do you think this is a problem of the driver? Do I need to install any different driver?

 

Please share your thoughts.

 

Thank you.

Hey @Blackbriar,

 

Looking into it, it may not be a supported action with this driver. If it doesn't show those options, then I don't believe it will work.
