Body: <p>A while ago, I started up the Robot Inventor program and noticed the computer was not connecting. When I clicked the &quot;Connect&quot; button, the loading &quot;circle&quot; simply started spinning either indefinitely or for a few seconds until the &quot;Connect&quot; button showed up again. The Bluetooth on my Dell E5540 is on, and the 2 devices are paired.</p>

  A while ago, I started up the Robot Inventor program and noticed the computer was not connecting. When I clicked the "Connect" button, the loading "circle" simply started spinning either indefinitely or for a few seconds until the "Connect" button showed up again. The Bluetooth on my Dell E5540 is on, and the 2 devices are paired.
