I've recently updated my operating system from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1.

Apart from a couple of minor glitches, my main concern is not being able to transfer files from my mobile device to my laptop and vice versa. This was a straight forward process in Windows 8 and I could send or receive files just by using the 'Send By Bluetooth To' command on my laptop or mobile phone. My devices are paired and I've even tried disabling my Firewall.

If I send a file from my mobile to my laptop, the error says that the transfer is forbidden by the target device. I don't get any errors if I try to send a file from my laptop to my mobile.


I've checked with the Device Manager screen and everything seems to be working fine.
