How do I install a Bluetooth mouse with Boot Camp (Win10)?

Solution 1:

I solved my Bluetooth Mice issue in Windows 10 Boot Camp as of Feb 2021 with latest macOS Big Sur update by following:

1. Update macOS and follow steps here to install Windows Support Software: https://support.apple.com/en-au/HT204923

2. Update Windows. Went to Settings, Device Manager, Bluetooth and update driver for all Bluetooth radio and everything. Restart.

3. I followed steps: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-performance/windows-10-missing-bluetooth-power-management-tab/62e63e7d-9954-4898-b2a3-44fed70421c5?page=2

   First, go to Device Manager > Human Interface Devices.

   1. Click on the "Bluetooth Low Energy GAT compliant HID device" and there's a power management tab in it. Disable/un-tick the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

   2. Click on "I2C HID Device" and there's a power management tab in it. Disable/un-tick the "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power".

   Didn't work. Can't find Power Management Tab in Bluetooth radio?

4. Looked through every single line in Windows Device Manager, and disable/untick everything that power management tab > "allow the computer to turn off this device to save power". " - Not sure of negative effects.

5. Shut down MacBook and waited ten minutes. Boot up straight into Windows.

6. Turned off Bluetooth and turned on. Paired Logitech G604 mice and it is working now.

7. I even bought the Logitech unifying receiver which I may not need now. Initially I deduce, the unifying receiver will not help as my Apple Mice did not work via Bluetooth in Windows Boot Camp.

8. The Logitech Mice have been working for the past hour and I will monitor.

Solution 2:

Try to update your Bluetooth drivers through Intel's website. They do have drivers that you can download.
