Windows 10 bluetooth shows almost every device as "Unknown Device"

I can't find my devices on the windows 10 bluetooth "add a device" listing on my laptop because they are all "Unknown Device" in the listing. Is there any way to get around the failure to resolve the names of bluetooth devices. It's detecting them but just not identifying them rendering the list useless since it isn't static and I can't systematically work through the list trying to find the device I want to connect (never mind the security risk of randomly connecting to nearby bluetooth devices).
