## Need Bluetooth?

This message means your **Windows Bluetooth adapter or its driver** cannot provide the mode PPTControl needs.

- **Driver:** Check the adapter manufacturer for a current driver. An update may help.
- **Adapter:** Confirm support for **Bluetooth LE peripheral mode**. A driver cannot add missing hardware features.
- **Other Bluetooth devices work?** Headphones and keyboards can still work. The Bluetooth version alone does not confirm support.
