Hey there! @RiteshSahu, Thanks for stopping by the HP Support Forums!

 

I understand you have Bluetooth issues with your laptop.

 

Don't worry I'd like to help you out.

 

Did you make any software or hardware changes on your PC?

 

Are the Bluetooth drivers listed in the device manager?

 

Are you able to connect other Bluetooth devices to your PC?

 

I have checked the records and it looks like you have installed incorrect driver version. So you are getting an error on your laptop.

 

The correct Bluetooth driver version for your laptop is sp56715.exe

 

Uninstall the Bluetooth driver from device manager on your PC and install the latest BIOS and Bluetooth from the links below.

You can install other drivers on your PC using HP support assistant.

Please try the steps recommended below.

 

a)   Open Control Panel by clicking the Start button, and then clicking Control Panel.
b)   In the Control Panel search box, type Bluetooth, and then click Change Bluetooth settings.
c)   In the Bluetooth Settings dialog box, click the Options tab and do any of the following:
d)   To make your computer discoverable to Bluetooth devices, select the check box for Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer.
e)   When a Bluetooth enabled computer is in discovery mode, it broadcasts a wireless signal that allows it to be detected by other Bluetooth enabled computers or devices. This is sometimes called pairing mode.
f)   To allow Bluetooth devices to connect to your computer, select the check box for Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer.
To be notified when a Bluetooth device is trying to connect to your computer, select the check box for Alert me when a new Bluetooth device wants to connect.

 

Also, try the steps recommended below.

 

press Win + R,” type services.msc and then press the Enter key on your keyboard.

find the service “Bluetooth Support Service” and see it if is running. 

If the service is not running, right-click on it and then select the “Start” option.

If you want to, you can also make the service start automatically at every Windows startup. To do that, right-click on the service and then select the “Properties” option.

In the Properties window select the option “Automatic” from the Startup Type drop-down menu, and then click on the “OK” button to save the changes.

 

Try the steps recommended below.

 

→ Go to RUN (Windows Logo + R) and type “services.msc” and Enter. 
→ Now find “Bluetooth Support Service” and double click on it. 
→ In General Tab change startup type Manual to Automatic.

→ Now remove both hidden password and restart your PC.
