    Hello, thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A.

    1. Could you please provide the make and model of the Bluetooth device you’re trying to connect to your Windows 11 PC (for example, Bluetooth headphones, a wireless controller, etc.)?
    2. Also, do you receive any error messages when pairing your Bluetooth device, or does your PC simply fail to detect any nearby Bluetooth devices?

      2. Under Audio, Mouse, keyboard, & pen, or Other devices, select the Bluetooth device.
      3. Select Remove device.
      4. Select Add Bluetooth or other device.
      5. Choose Bluetooth, then select the device when it appears and complete pairing.
    5. Check Windows Update
      1. Select Start > Settings > Windows Update.
