Remove microsoft bluetooth stack


Recommended Posts

I have a logitech MX900 bluetooth mouse and hub. When I attempt to install it, I am told there is a microsoft bluetooth present and it wont load. I've checked many forums and followed all ideas with no success to remove the microsoft stack. In device manager there is no sign of anything relating to bluetooth, bt or anything like that. I've tried renaming the bt inf's,( no difference ) , removing bthusb.sys etc ( they just reappear ) I have installed ms service pack 2 which I understand includes the bluetooth stuff. I just want it out. Any help out there? ps, I'm a self taught comp geek so laymans terms please. :cry:

What I mean is, there is no bluetooth service to cancel. It is not listed in the sevices list. Where your screen shot showed it, Mine doesnt. Its as if it doesnt exist. the only way I know it is there is when I try to install the logitech hub. That tells me its there.

definatly have sp2

have renamed inf's that are named bt blah blah (added .bad as instructed by someone else)

there is no sign of bluetooth in control panel under printers or anywhere else.

I tried to delete bthusb.sys, bthport.sys & bthenum.sys. They all just reappeard.

Is this AutoPatcher-related?

You may have messed something up.. try running:

sfc /scannow

that may help - if not.. Well, you shouldn't have messed with system files... disabling sevice would have helped :p

I've reset everything as it was.

There is NO service to disable

What do you mean by resetting?

Did you execute sfc /scannow command? Or tried restoring back before you made any changes??

all I did was to rename the bt inf files. I have now put them back as they were.

I have had comp since new. I have never had bluetooth/ the logitech is my first bluetooth. it wont install because it says I already have one. I cannot find anything to do with it. It can only be something to do with when I installed sp2. ( Or so I was told)

    • Elden Ring Nightreign will finally gain ‘Duo Expeditions' next week by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe FromSoftware's latest project, Elden Ring Nightreign, delivered a multiplayer-focused experience for the first time. While the title offered solo runs as an alternative to its standard three-player Trio Expeditions, Duos were surprisingly missing at launch. A couple of months later, the developer is finally delivering this highly requested feature for the hit roguelike. On social media, the studio confirmed that Duo Expeditions will be hitting Elden Ring Nightreign with the next update, patch 1.02, for the game on July 30. Check out the newly released trailer showing off this mode below. As we mentioned in our review of Elden Ring Nightreign, everything from enemy health, boss aggression, player damage, and even XP gain changes depending on how many players are in the Expedition. A post-launch update even tweaked the difficulty to favor solos as well. Duos should have the same changes being applied, with the mode being easier than trios but harder than solos to complete. Making sure the difficulty is properly balanced has previously been given as the reason why the Duos mode has taken a while to come in. FromSoftware also confirmed that patch 1.02 will have a range of more quality-of-life improvements on the UI side. This will include more Relics filtering options, making custom builds easier to construct before going on new runs, as seen below. Publisher Bandai Namco also announced this week that the Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree expansion for the original open-world Soulslike recently passed 10 million players. Meanwhile, this Elden Ring Nightreign spin-off now has over 5 million players, making both massive successes for the publisher. While FromSoftware is now focusing on other projects, Bandai Namco isn't done with the Elden Ring universe just yet either, as a live-action movie has now been confirmed to be in development too.
    • Or you ignore the part where @Michael Scrip answered you directly.
    • The reasons for Microsoft being in near perpetual state of reorganization for two years is due to the 6 CapEx acquisitions between Jan 2022 and Jan 2023, Blizzard, Oribi, Minit, Miburo, Lumenisity and Fungible. There were 15 CapEx acquisitions in 2021 alone. Much like the Borg, Microsoft assimilates knowledge instead of expending resources on learning and development. 10 gaming companies, 3 AI and 1 data modeling companies since 2018. But then this is in the founding DNA of Microsoft, MS DOS wasn't made by MS, Windows was based on the Apple Mac and Xerox PARC Alto....and on and on. (To be fair Apple's Lisa and Mac were from the Alto also)
