   mOSTLY SOLVED:   
      
   It turns out, for all but one chat so far, the problem was in Windows.   
   For each transfer, I have to click on the arrow in the systray to open   
   up all the miscellaneous overflow icons, click on the Bluetooth icon,   
   then chnose Receive a file.  Each time. I didn't expect that.   
      
   One important one continues to balk.  There is a strange blue large   
   capital T in the name of the other party to the chat.  Could that be the   
   problem?  That's the only anomaly I see.   
      
   Anyhow, thanks for all the help.  Nothing on the web mentioned this   
   either.   It's a Dell Latitude 5510 but it's hard to believe the make or   
   model makes a difference.  Windows 11 Pro fully updated.
