Event Viewer Warning BTHUSB
I just noticed that my computer is registering thousands of warnings in the Event Viewer. It started about 6.5 hours ago when I wasn't at the computer. The Event ID is 7 and the text is "A hardware error occurred. The event contains the vendor-specific error code." The Source is "BTHUSB". I've tried searching for info and haven't found anything helpful other than it relates to Bluetooth. I don't know of any bluetooth devices on this computer and when I searched for bluetooth devices through the icon at the bottom right of my screen, none showed up in the results. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated! It's unsettling to have these warnings being added to the EV every two seconds (literally). Thanks. Edited to add additional info: I rebooted the computer and it took a while to shut down (normally the computer reboots very quickly). When it was running again, I checked the EV and there was an error, "The local Bluetooth adapter has failed in an undetermined manner and will not be used. The driver has been unloaded." Event ID 17, Source: BTHUSB. The total warnings prior to reboot, over the course of under 7 hours, is 13,068. No new warning are being recorded since rebooting, but I guess that's because the computer didn't load whatever is failing. I don't have any idea what the failure is affecting. Things seem to be operating normally so far. If I hadn't looked in the EV and noticed all the warnings, the only issue I would've noticed is the longer shutdown time.
