I had a similar kind of issue with my AKG N400NC buds that would leave them only as a microphone input device. BT driver and windows update seemed to fix it. (Note, this was on early W11)

I updated the drivers too, doesn't seem to fix it, but i'm getting em in the sound settings but I cant allow them to play anything.

I've tried reconnecting,restarting system, restarting services. 
my other bluetooth devices do work mind you they take longer than on my old windows laptop to get detected as a output device

Desoldering Wick (braid) is easy to use, and can be better than a desoldering pump in some cases.

I upgraded to a Wd blue 3d nand, recently and wnated to know if that was any good for managing data between the 1tb hdd and 250gb ssd.

And will a 2017 model of this laptop have a nvme slot?

The specs list only SATA drives, so I wouldn't count on NVMe drives working.

Do you have an NVMe drive already or do you want to buy one for it?

I am looking to buy one

I found some info that shares between this model and one that has an R on the end.  I can't find anything in regards to any expansion slots in the manual for the motherboard, but my gut feeling is for sure an M.2 slot. Sometimes on the motherboard in the area of the slot, they will print what that is for, i.e. PCIe slot, RAM slot etc.

I found this, so I guess a nvme wont work even if my slot only have "M" key

This does look like a M.2 slot. Have you tried search for a support document from the laptop manufacturer's webpage to see if it lists what it is exactly??

No I havent, I dunno where to find it. LIke I am not finding anything on the Asus website

That is an M.2 M key slot.

What laptop is this? Some laptops have M key slots but only support SATA drives.

The laptop is: Asus Vivobook X542UQR

Hmm, I don't know if that's true. Here's a WD Green 240 M.2 on the indian Amazon for for 2500 INR, which is $34 usd.

yea, Ik that it is cheap but I've read some negative reviews on it (related to reliability) if that is correct idk

Where do you live that the prices are so weird. $45 should get you a 500GB

India, every computer part is expensive here. and a correction it is $41, and I will buy the 240gig m.2 as the 2.5" would be the same price if I equate in the price of the drive caddy and the 2.5"

Where are you located? In the US, the price of a 120GB M.2 SSD starts at $23ish, while a 240GB can be had for $30, which is a very small difference. 240GB 2.5" SSDs cost even less, $25 or $26 to start.

 

I would just wait a few days until you have literally $7 more for twice the storage space lol

the 120gb one is of $24 and the 240gb is of $45.

I would just wait for offers or something

That's a SATA interface drive. It will always run at SATA III speeds (600 MB/s) despite being plugged in to m.2. You would just be better off buying a 2.5" 250GB SSD instead of paying extra for the M.2 variant, you would get the same speeds and twice the storage. 

would it be fine to install in a cd/dvd sata. if it is I would need a casing for installing the ssd, so that would be the same price of the m.2

I've to install it in a laptop so the 2.5" sata slot is occupied by the hard drive

yes for windows but you wont get much more on there. maybe save and get a larger drive

So wont it fit no more than windows, as windows is 40gb and would be better than hdd and will 70 TBW will be enough

I m looking forward to upgrade by hard drive to a ssd and I was looking at teh Su650 120gb m.2 version
and will 120gb be ok for windows and some program as a 1 tb hdd will be running in parallel. 

What is the difference between the Adata Su650 and the samsung 860 evo, as they have the same read write speeds. Is it that the Samsung one has dram cache and the Adata is a dram-less ssd?

I would like to know how big of a difference it will make in a general use, as I've never used a ssd before.

and any other recommendations would be nice for a 250 gb ssd.

I have done that on an old laptop and works just fine. To be exact I swapped the old HDD for an SSD, and the HDD gone to the CD place with a plastic adapter

Ok  I will do that 

would there be any speeds penalties if I install a ssd in sata interface of the cd drive in my laptop, would there be any changes the manufacturer has made. I have a Asus vivobook X542UQR

So you're streaming to the laptop from another computer? In the control panel, make sure that the bottom two settings are set to "do nothing."

yes they are set to do nothing 

whenever I close the lid of the laptop parsec stops streaming the video but the audio keeps going, I would like to use parsec with the lid closed 

I made a hot key which is XButton1 & WheelUp:: Send {Volume_Up}, it is giving a error of invalid hotkey after running it.

and the invalid hotkey is coming because of the WheelUp as if I remove it the script works
