    I hope and pray something else comes up and destroys this stupid windows and apple. I can't do nothing to send files from iphone to pc and from pc to iphone. Microsoft and apple are the biggest LEGAL scam that this world has seen.

    I believe that Apple has purposely set the iPhone Bluetooth to not allow file transfer.  I believe that you can only do sound on the Bluetooth.

    Which begs the question why is there a section on Windows 10 which goes into some detail about how to send and receive files to and from an iPhone ? I assume Microsoft know about this so why don't they say so?

    …it would have been really helpful if that information was readily available. I just wasted a few hours on this.

    Microsoft will only offer information, help and guidance to Microsoft products.  Apple will only offer the same for 'iDevices" and Macs.  This is where the problem meets:  You are trying to do some transfers between the two different manufactured products.
