Can't Rename Bluetooth Speaker
« on: April 19, 2022, 12:57:11 PM »
Have a BT speaker that I renamed when I first installed it. Everything was groovy.

But then something went kerflooey on other BT devices, so I just deleted everything and added them back in.

Now I can't rename the speaker.

Oh, I've tried - and sometimes it sticks until the next reboot. But ultimately it reverts back to its factory name.

I've done every permutation of rename-in-control-panel-and-power-off I can figure out mathematically. I have gone through the registry and picked out every single mention of its factory name, and yet.

Any thoughts?
