The device manager fix definitely helped me with removing two bluetooth devices, but I have a third one still unable to be removed after going down the list trying all of the solutions. I’m stumped, It’s an mpow m30 and no matter what I try, I can’t seem to remove it from my bluetooth settings on windows 10.
