Has anyone found how to disable the bloototh? My observations:
1. nothing in the manual.
2. no function key.
3. so I thought that closing the appropriate programme should be disabling it, but Sammy continues to be seen by other BT equipments…
4. tried ctrl-alt-del to see the process: when programme running there are two processes beginning with bt, when programme closed one process continues…
5. tried BIOS: enabling or disabling is for all wireless, so I gather also for BT, but am not sure.
So it seems BT is running all the time (?).
Can anyone clarify?
Disable Bluetooth in Device Manager under Bluetooth Devices.
Right click and click “Disable”.
If you want to remove the bluetooth icon from the desktop the easiest way to do this is to download TweakUI and unselect “My Bluetooth Places” under Desktop Icons.
Thanks Adatay, I dont want to disable it completely, I only want it to be working when I need it, like in MSI Wind you disable it with a function key. Or like wifi in our NC-10: you can turn it on and off, whilst BT (hardware) seems to be working all the time. Or am I wrong?
Unfortunately there is no dedicated function key on the NC10. Function + F9 only turns the WiFi On/Off.
The easiest thing is probably to go to Control Panel > Bluetooth Configuration > Diagnostics and Enable/Disable from there each time you want to turn it On/Off.
