Bluetooth removal failed is an unusual error that can be irritating.
Mostly this happens for audio devices and Xbox controllers.
It happened to my bluetooth wireless Boat earphones.
It was already paired with Windows 11.
But when I tap the 3 vertical dots and remove, it fails.
Now the equipment will not play music.
Then I found my error.
Cant Remove Bluetooth machine Windows 11 Solution
My desktop had an external bluetooth usb adapter.
I removed it a few days ago.
Then the bluetooth setting also disappeared inWindows 11.
But the bluetooth devices were still there in the Devices list.
When I tried to remove them, I got the error Bluetooth remove failed.
I forgot this issue.
So after a few days I reconnected the bluetooth adapter and was able to turn on the bluetooth setting.
Then I paired a bluetooth sound bar.
I was easily able to remove it.
But there were bluetooth earphones which I was not able to remove.
It was paired before the bluetooth adapter was plugged in.
So I switched on my earphones and tried to remove them.
That didnt work out.
