title: What bluetooth service is needed to connect a remote BLE device to a windows 10 virtual port?
body: <p>I am doing some bluetooth development where I have a device running a SPP service. However i cannot set up a virtual comport where with the device. Windows discovers the device in the general bluetooth tab but when looking in the browse window in: More bluetooth options -> COM ports -> Add... -> Outgoing -> Browse, I cannot find the device.</p>

  <p>What services are required to be able to establish a virtual comport connection with my device? Are there any special requirments on characteristics?</p>
