If you want to connect this to Windows and it's having trouble finding a driver (but recognizes) install the Broadcom driver from: http://www.broadcom.com/support/bluetooth/update.php ...works well for me with this USB dongle on my desktop:  http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B009ZIILLI/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Just make sure to update Windows 10 first.  I had to plug it in then do a Windows update manually before it was recognized.

Just plug the device in and download the driver ( there is a great review on this page on how to do it) usally can get it plugged and ready to use in less than 3 minutes.
*side note* just throw away the disc and instructions that sent with the adapter.

Involves loading specific drivers. you must have another device with access to the internet.  Definitely not plug and play.

1st of all, delete all windows original bluetooth driver.

2nd,download driver from maker site and install it.

3rd,check device manager,they shows 2drivers,
one is microsoft bluetooth enumerator<2006/06/21 version 6.1.7601.17514>
the other is intel wireless bluetooth 4.0 adaptor<2014/04/18 version 17.0.1405.456>

When I plug it in it downloads but cannot find any drivers. It says not compatible with this version of Windows. Some help please?

This is a third party accessory first and foremost of course it is going to lack any kind of real support. For those having trouble installing the required software and drivers here is the link for them both in a single download.(Note this is official from Microsoft.)

[...]

Moving on
1. Download the software from the link and install
2. Connect the adapter to a usb 2.0 port
3. Open up the device manager
4. Double click "Unknown Device"---this is the wireless adapter
5. Install drivers
6. Your computer will not know which to install so select the option that lets you decide
7. Find the divers that fall under "Microsoft Controller Class for Windows
8. Select "Xbox 360 Wireless Controller Adapter"
9. Sync your controller(s)
10. Boot up Steam Big Picture and Enjoy =)

Works flawlessy with Windows 10.  Just plug and play.  I'm using this as part of a karaoke setup with a home stereo and pc.  Pc had no microphone jack, this was the easy and cheap solution.

I tried with my windows computer and it works great. One thing that I think is this product is relatively cheap with a superb quality. Thanks.

Works perfectly with no installation of drivers needed when I installed it to my Windows 7 Pro desktop machine.
My Motorola MOTOROKR S305 wireless Bluetooth headphones connect without a hitch to my laptop and to my desktop computers when I plug this little jewel into either of them. My old laptop (1st Gen Core i3) is running Windows 8 Pro, it had Windows XP Home on it and it was very simple to install this StarTech USBBT2EDR2 Mini USB Bluetooth adapter onto my Windows 8 Pro laptop! I have a little JBL portable Bluetooth BoomBox that I connect to my laptop as well, no problems.

REQUIRES 32 bit windows xp or 7 to set up. vonets support isn't the best either, if i could, id remote into it over ip and be done, but it doesnt like that either....

I have Windows 10, and I just plugged it in and was ready to go.  It comes with driver software but it wasn't needed. Works great. I use to connect to my Amazon Echo to play music/etc, and it sounds so much better than the computer speakers I have.

Works, but not with the drivers that came with it... had to let Windows find drivers instead
