Windows 10: Bluetooth Device Does Not Require a Pin Code, Windows 11 Says Otherwise

Hello! Right now I'm trying to connect a device to my computer. This device is a Wii remote, which has certain Bluetooth capabilities which I can connect without issue to a device. The part I'm having trouble with is getting to connect the device. Before I switched to Windows 11 from Windows 10, I was able to connect this device to my computer without any issues. I used the Control Panel and added the device from there. When it asked me to put in a code, I could simply just press "continue" and it would work just fine. Today I tried to connect this device with the same method, but instead of t

Bluetooth Headphone requiring pin code input for connecting to windows

Hello Andre,

Thanks for your prompt reply. I am trying to address all your suggestions one by one:

1. SKU: Actually mine is a gaming pc, which I built myself. I'm not sure, but in the SKU part it only says : "SKU".

2. I am using a bluetooth dongle, and seems like it's manufacturers don't provide any separate drivers, so I am using the default driver. But I have updated the drivers to the latest version.

3. I have tried all your suggestions, and also restarted my pc.

After some researching, I have found that if I try to add devices from my pc, it doesn't work. But if I try from the device, then I can easily connect to my pc. For example: If I search for my pc from my phone, and connect it, I can establish the bluetooth
connection. But if I search for my phone from my pc, my pc discovers my phone, but does not generate any pin or even prompt for it when I try to connect. After sometime, the same message reappears - "Check the pin and
try connecting again."

So, what should I do? Seems like my pc does not generate any pin code while it itself is attempting the bluetooth connection. Also, for a bluetooth headphone, it should not generate any pin code in the first place,
don't you think?

Thanks again!
