MPVI2+ pairs but does not connect - Windows 11

I am using Windows 11. I paired the MPVI2+ to my laptop and during the pair process, it initially showed "Connected" but then immediately changed to "Paired".

[HP Tuners MPVI2+] shows up in my bluetooth settings as paired. How do I get the MPVI2+ to connect thru Bluetooth? I am unable to run Scanner thru Bluetooth...

Thx, Jeff

I am having the same exact problem. I can pair and connect my MPVI2+ to my phone, but not my laptop.

Same thing. "Pairs" to laptop, but does not connect. No connection recognized in VCM unless I plug in the cable.
