Your Windows 10 device, be it a laptop, tablet or desktop computer, is likely going to have Bluetooth built-in. Bluetooth is great for connecting various devices to your computer/tablet. I personally like to play some music while I work, so I connect my Bluetooth speakers to my Windows 10 laptop.
When connecting a new Bluetooth device to Windows 10, it will automatically already have a name. For most devices, this name will be fine and it will be easily recognisable. However, for many other devices, you may not be satisfied with and you may want to change the name of the Bluetooth device in Windows 10. For me personally, some boring name that I wanted to rename are:
- 2.4G Receiver
- Bleutooth Keyboard
- Virtual USB Mouse
- BT Adapter
I’m sure that the first steps you took were to follow these steps:
- Go to Start menu
- Click on Settings
- Open Devices
- Open the tab Bluetooth & other Devices
However, in this menu, the only option for a Bluetooth device is to click on Remove device. Even if you right-click on the device, you will be disappointed because it will not do anything. (or there is another option to Connect if the device is currently powered off or not in range)

Hi. The Magic Mouse's display name is Servant777 but it's actual name is really something like mouse no. 1 which I take was from the store that first paired the mouse to test it ( I usually have it tested first after buying things, not all the time but sometimes, can't remember, it was 3 years ago).
How do you kind of 'reset' the Magic Mouse like it's the first time it's being used and paired. I've tried: disconnecting and removing it from the bluetooth preference as well the on in the Mouse settings. It'd be nice if there's some kind of reset but it doesn't change the actual name, only the disply name could be changed. Is there any Terminal command for this?
Thank you in advance. Have a great upcoming sunday mass/great weekend.
