Windows BT part 2

So, I found a csr driver for my bluetooth dongle, which was disconnecting automatically. I think it fixed the issue, but the interface is TRASH, literally windows 7 inerface. The worst part is that windows can't even use this dongle anymore, only the csr utility can, and as someone who uses nearby share regularly, this is frankly a deal breaker and a half. Honestly think I am way better off with the windows default divers. 

This is only for informating how bad the csr driver utility is and why never to buy cheap crappy things.

Like drivers from to link? I tried that, but it still kept randomly disconnecting. Honestly, I just stopped using Bluetooth and just put up a wire. The headphone cable is proprietary and so short that I am forever stuck in the gamer position.

It doesnt have any disable to save power option. Honestly, probably should have bought a tp link card or smtn. and btw I have a dell proprietary wifi card from 2011. Can I sell it?
