  • I’ll still never probably fully know what happened, but that was a great reply and I appreciate all your help. Luckily my direct neighbors on both sides are old AF and I trust them to not be doing anything like this because they wouldn’t even know what any of it means, but the sketchy businesses behind us that include a liquor store, vape shop and sex shop among others I can’t say I trust as much. I’m glad Windows was kind enough to ask instead of just connecting. 😂


  • It’s funny, everyone keeps asking the same things so I have to keep typing the same information in this thread. 😅

    It came up as a Windows notification center popup in the bottom right corner of the screen saying it was trying to connect or something like that, but when I clicked on it, it came up with a different window offering me yes or no, I clicked no, then it came up in the bottom right corner again starting the loop over, I clicked no several times before opening the connected devices app and disabling Bluetooth completely. This all happened in about 60 seconds as I saw it when grabbing my keys to leave for work at 5am, no one else was awake and I wasn’t interacting with ANY devices or my computer at all beforehand.



  • I definitely have some bt devices around the house, but I’m pretty sure they’re accounted for in the list of previous connected devices and if it wasn’t something I have connected before it seems odd it would be trying to connect out of the blue, and my fiance was sleeping so I know no one in the house was using anything like that. There are some sketchy business on the other side of our back fence, but it’s probably JUST close enough for a Bluetooth device to connect to my PC and when I went outside the front shortly after there was no one around (again, 5AM so most people are sleeping). The whole thing was just weird because I haven’t had something like this happen in the years of having my PC constantly on in this house and every time I clicked deny access it popped back up, possibly because it was just sending a connect signal and not listening for a denial, but that’s merely guessing because I don’t have much knowledge on this.




  • Maybe. Nothing new has been added at my home, I only noticed it as I was leaving for work and since it weirded me out because it just kept trying to connect every time I denied it access I disabled my Bluetooth and left, it’s not trying to connect now that I’m back home and have enabled my Bluetooth. The only thing I have connected recently is my PS5 controller and it’s showing up correctly.
