5. Troubleshooting

5.1 Adapter Not Working / Driver Error

If your Bluetooth adapter is not functioning correctly or you encounter a driver error, especially on Windows 10:

  • Disable Built-in Bluetooth: Windows 10 systems often have a built-in Bluetooth function (e.g., "Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth"). This can conflict with the external adapter.
    1. Right-click on the Start button and select Device Manager.
    2. Expand the Bluetooth section.
    3. Locate any existing Bluetooth adapters (e.g., "Intel(R) Wireless Bluetooth").
    4. Right-click on the built-in adapter and select Disable device.
    5. Unplug the Zexmte Bluetooth USB Adapter, then re-plug it into a USB port.
  • Reinstall Drivers: If disabling the built-in Bluetooth doesn't work, try reinstalling the drivers as per Section 2.3.

  • Operating System: This adapter is designed exclusively for Windows PCs (Windows 7/8/10/11, 32/64 bit). It is not compatible with Mac OS, Linux, TV operating systems, Xbox, or car stereos.
  • Direct TV Connection: The product cannot be used directly on a TV. It requires a Windows PC to function.
  • In-Car Use: The adapter is not supported for use in vehicles.

5.3 Connection Range

The adapter offers a long-distance range of 20-100 meters in an open environment. However, the actual connection distance can be significantly affected by physical obstacles (walls, furniture) and interference from other wireless devices (Wi-Fi routers, microwaves).
