Please note I'm looking to implement the first solution which opens the Windows RT/WinStore/ModernUI control panel for Bluetooth, not the "Desktop Mode" control panel. When I create the shortcut per the tutorial on my Win8 box it works like a charm every time. I was able to find a nifty tutorial on how to create a shortcut on your desktop that opens the Bluetooth Control Panel directly, however I've tried many permutations with Process.Start() and have been unable to get this to work in my app: However, in Windows 8.0 and 8.1 while that code DOES still work, it more often just dumps you to the Devices control panel instead of specifically the Bluetooth panel (it's inconsistent and unreliable).

Back in Win7 and prior, I used to just be able to do this in C#: Process.Start("control", "bthprops.cpl")
