How to Find Your Bluetooth USB Host Controller Serial Number

=====================================================================================

When troubleshooting issues related to your computer's Bluetooth connectivity or trying to configure specific settings for particular USB devices, knowing the serial number of your Bluetooth USB host controller can be incredibly helpful. In this article, we will walk you through a step-by-step process on how to find and obtain the necessary information.

### Step 1: Access Device Manager

Firstly, press `Windows + X` simultaneously or right-click anywhere on your desktop and select 'Device Manager' from the context menu that appears.

Alternatively, if using Windows Search (available in Windows 10 and later versions), type 'device manager' into the search bar at the taskbar's left edge, click on 'Device Manager', and then proceed with step two below:

### Step to Find Bluetooth USB Host Controller

1. In Device Manager, under 'Universal Serial Bus Controllers,' double-click or right-click anywhere within this section.

2. A new window titled 'Properties' should now appear.

### Finding the Serial Number in Properties Window

---------------------------------------------------------------

In the properties window for your Universal Serial Bus (USB) controller:

* Look for a field labeled 'Serial number' or something similar, depending on your computer's hardware manufacturer and operating system version.

* The serial number you are looking for should be displayed directly next to this label.

### Alternative Method: Using Command Prompt

If the above steps do not yield any results, another approach is using an elevated Command Prompt:

1. Press `Windows + X` again or right-click on your Start menu and select 'Command Prompt (Admin)'.

2. Type 'wmic path win32_pnpdevice where name like '%USB%Bluetooth%' get /value' into the command prompt window followed by Enter key.

The output will display a list of devices that match your criteria, including their serial numbers if available:

### Example Output

```

Name Value

InstanceId {A123456-7890-ABCDEF012345}

PNPDeviceID USB\ROOT\USB#3&1F8D7E78&_BST000001

The output may vary depending on your specific system configuration and installed drivers.

```

### --------------------------------------------------------------

By following these steps, you should be able to successfully locate the serial number for your Bluetooth USB host controller. Remember that different operating systems or hardware configurations might require slight variations in either the Device Manager's navigation path or command prompt syntax used above.

If after completing all of these instructions and still cannot find what you're looking for, consider visiting official manufacturer support resources or forums dedicated to troubleshooting similar issues specific to your particular computer model or device type.
