Bluetooth now working on Boot Camp

I tried to pair the device on the macOS side and then reboot and see if the info has been shared between the OSes, but it didn’t work.

Did you run a SMC and NVRAM Reset after you encountered this issue and then retest?

I run the setup.exe from a USB stick with the latest Boot Camp drivers, but it didn’t work as well.

If I go in Device Manager on Windows, under Bluetooth I see Bluetooth Radio, but under properties

there is no ‘Power Management’ tab and if I try to update the driver and choose from a list of available drivers there is no Apple Inc in the list.

On the newer Macs, this is fine. Power Management is available on older drivers as an explicit setting, and is automatic on the newer ones.

Finally, if I go in Network adapters, in properties for Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter under the ‘Advanced’ tab there is no ‘Bluetooth Collaboration’ option.

This is also related to older drivers in the 7.35.x.x series.

My Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter is on 101.10.152.5 version and Bluetooth Radio is on 10.0.19041.1

version.

Good to see a new version. Microsoft Catalog does not have it yet.

Try the SMC and NVRAM Reset before we go further.

Please post back after you try to install W10 20H2 and we can again look at the BT issues.

Take a look at https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluetooth_log_view.html .

Has BT worked on this Mac in Windows at all?

Is this a new installation of Windows?

Before you re-install Windows, have you tried changing the physical location of the Mac to see if other locations (or rooms) make any difference to discoverability?

Your BT driver (19041) came from the W10 2004 ISO. There is later ISO W10 20H2 that you may want to use.

See https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/release-information/ for reference.

Excellent!
