Windows 10: AirPods Pro keeps automatically connecting to Bluetooth

Whenever I am using my Airpods Pro on my iPhone and I turn on my laptop, they automatically connect to my laptop. This is extremely frustrating as I have to then disconnect them from my laptop and then connect them to my iPhone again. How do I stop it from automatically connecting to my laptop without removing the device from Bluetooth entirely as that would require to pair and unpair my Airpods every time I do want to connect them to my laptop?

AirPods Pro automatically connecting to laptop when it starts

Hi Ian,

Thank you for getting back to me. I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble finding the "Options" button under Bluetooth settings. Here's a more detailed step-by-step guide to help you:

> Click on the Start menu and select Settings (the gear icon).

> In the Settings menu, select Devices.

> Click on the "Bluetooth & other devices" option on the left-hand side.

> Under the "Audio" section, find your AirPods Pro and click on the "Connect" button if they're not already connected.

> Once your AirPods Pro are connected, click on the "Manage" button.

> In the Manage menu, click on the drop-down arrow next to your AirPods Pro and select "Remove device."

> After your AirPods Pro are removed, turn them off and back on again.

> Go back to the "Bluetooth & other devices" menu and click on the "+" button to add a new device.

> Select "Bluetooth" and wait for your AirPods Pro to appear in the list of available devices.

> Click on your AirPods Pro to connect them, but do not check the "Connect as an audio device" option.

> After your AirPods Pro are connected, click on the "Options" button next to them.

> In the "Options" menu, turn off the toggle switch next to "Connect to This Device" under the "Automatically Connect to This Device" section.

I hope this helps you solve the problem. Please let me know if you have any further questions or concerns.

My airpods pro automatically connects to my windows laptop even if it's already connected to my iPhone, when I turn my laptop on.

Hello, I'm Felipe and I'm an independent Community Advisor, and I'll do my best to help you.

This is a common issue with Bluetooth devices, where they automatically connect to the last device they were paired with, even if there is another device that has priority. To prevent your AirPods Pro from automatically connecting to your Windows laptop, you can try the following steps:

Open the Settings app on your Windows laptop.

Click on "Devices" and then click on "Bluetooth & other devices".

Find your AirPods Pro in the list of paired devices and click on "Remove device".

Confirm that you want to remove the device.

Pair your AirPods Pro with your iPhone again.

After following these steps, your AirPods Pro should only connect to your iPhone and not your Windows laptop. If you need to use your AirPods Pro with your laptop again, you can pair them again by going to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth & other devices and clicking on "Add Bluetooth or other device".
