How do I install Bluetooth driver on my HP laptop Windows 7?

You can pair all kinds of Bluetooth devices with your PC—including keyboards, mice, phones, speakers, and a whole lot more. To do this, your PC needs to have Bluetooth. Some PCs, such as laptops and tablets, have Bluetooth built in. If your PC doesn’t, you can plug a USB Bluetooth adapter into the USB port on your PC to get it.

  • In Settings: Select Start  > Settings > Bluetooth & devices , and then turn on Bluetooth .

  • In quick settings: To find the quick setting for Bluetooth, select the Network, Sound, or Battery icons (  ) next to the time and date on the right side of your taskbar. Select Bluetooth  to turn it on. If it's turned on without any Bluetooth devices connected, it might appear as Not connected .
