Wiimote bluetooth

Question

Wiimote bluetooth

ClansTwo 20

I was trying to connect a wiimote to my pc via bluetooth and the bluetooth applet was asking me to input a pin code or something, the only way to connect that controller is by skipping the pin, BUT THE SETTINGS APPLET DOESEN'T LET YOU SKIP IT AND REQUIRES SOMETHING TO BE WRITTEN, and by doing that the controller doesent connect, i cant even open the original control panel applet because it POINTS TO THE STUPID UWP ONE

Settings suck

bring back the old control panel

Hi,

Enter the code 0000 and see if connecting to the Wiimote generally works

or

Access the start menu > settings > bluetooth and devices > view more devices > scroll down to the last one select more devices and printer configuration > select add device > put wiimote in pairing mode > select the wiimote when asking for the pin you click next.

Use the Wiimote's Mac to see the generated code

Hi,

I'm sorry about that. I presented 3 methods to try and resolve it.

Were you able to generate the code after getting the MAC address and generating the PIN?

Hi,

To use it in Dolphin, open the application, go to the controls tab > enable Bluetooth on windows settings > bluetooth & devices > bluetooth ON > then change the settings in the Wiimotes tab (dolphin) > change to Real Wiimotes and select the continue scan option and click OK. Now on the Wiimote, press buttons 1 and 2 and wait for it to automatically try to pair with Dolphin. Keep it open.

You must be using Dolphin version 5.

Hi,

So it was working, you said it wasn't, I misunderstood. I'm glad it worked.

I'm sorry for the problem. You can always count on the Microsoft Q&A community. Have a good week.

If possible, if my answer helped solve the problem, you can confirm here or not (by pressing "accept answer").

Thanks

im sorry for the misunderstanding, the CONTROL PANEL applet works, the SETTINGS app doesent, but to get to the control panel applet its a mess, i think your option also works though, so im gonna accept it.
