<p>Maybe this project <a href="https://github.com/DietrichChristopeit/legoBTLE4PI" rel="nofollow noreferrer">legoBTLE4pi</a> could help you.
It connects a Raspberry PI via Bluetooth to a Lego Powered Up Brick and does all the funny stuff.</p>
<p>The project is ongoing (nice TUI etc) but everything works.</p>

I'm not sure how a Raspberry Pi-based project could help the problem OP is facing with their computer - could you please elaborate on this aspect?

I thought maybe by using a vm with Linux this problem could be circumvented. However, you're absolutely right, I answered quicker than I thought. Please excuse this lapse.

<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>

Did you try pairing the hub using the Windows Bluetooth settings first?

# Robot Inventor Bluetooth not working

(Asked by: username_0 on 2021-04-03)

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.
