I have an older HP laptop with Windows 11  DEQFMNBC.  Currently my PC does not support Bluetooth Low Energy.  Is there a software or hardware solution that adds BLE capability

Hi @jcv1959,


Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.


Sorry for the inconvenience caused don’t worry let me help you.

To better understand the issue, could you please provide a few more details?

 

  • The exact model number of your HP laptop (usually found on the bottom cover or in System Information).
  • Are you mainly looking to connect BLE devices such as headphones, fitness trackers, or IoT devices?
  • Do you currently have any Bluetooth functionality at all, or is it completely missing?

 Suggested Troubleshooting / Upgrade Options:

  1. Check Current Bluetooth Drivers
    • Open Device Manager → expand Bluetooth.
    • Verify if your current adapter supports BLE. If not, update drivers via Windows Update or HP Support Assistant.
  2. Confirm Windows Settings
  • Go to Settings → Devices → Bluetooth & devices and ensure Bluetooth is enabled.
  • If no Bluetooth option appears, it confirms hardware support is miss

I hope this helps.
