QuestionAnyone else having the issue where it says drive error if so how did you fix it because I cant seem to find drivers to install manually.
Asked 2 years ago by Ironlifter.
- Answer If you check for optional updates in Windows Update you may find the driver there. If you can't find it, try going to your Device Manager, and check for anything under "Bluetooth Devices". If you can see any devices, uninstall them, then check for updates again.
