        Hi Richard. no errors, The Receive Data Event not working. the com port is in /foreach(string port in ports) / as well it shows as com port in Device Manager as 'Standard Serial over Bluetooth link (COM4)'. I use standard Serial port structure . It works as HID, when I scan barcode while in Note Pad ?!!?? In device manager I have its HID disabled. When I change the driver to do as com port, my software works. I have an issue with the com port driver supplied with the scanner, and this is the reason I like to change it. Regards John

          If it is a problem with the device you are connecting to then there is very little anyone here can do to help.

            Hi Richard maybe I have not been clear. I do not want to use the faulty driver as it has problems. This is why I like to use Scanner via Bluetooth and redirected to operate as com port. The Bluetooth driver is Microsoft and redirection is done via Windows 11, so no faulty driver to be used. regards John

                  The documentation for that is at SerialDataReceivedEventHandler Delegate (System.IO.Ports) | Microsoft Learn[^].
