Bluetooth Connection Log

Is there a way to obtain the Bluetooth connection history from windows 10? I want to find out how long a device remained connected?

I checked the details tab under device manager. But it only shows the last connected time, not the duration of time connected.

Thanks in advance.

In Computer Management / Event Viewer, look for Applications and Service Logs, Microsoft, Windows, Bluetooth-Policy, Operational. Enable this log. When a bluetooth device is connected, an event should show up. I have Source as Bluetooth-Policy and Event ID is 9.

For some reason, a disconnection event is not recorded here. I'm using a bluetooth keypad, and it's recognized by Windows as a Bluetooth HID device. Not sure if that's your case, but could be similar.

To look for disconnection events, go to Windows Logs, System, find warning messages from Source HidBth, Event ID is 2 in my case.
