Windows 10: Bluetooth headphones not showing on PC correctly

I purchased a pair of Sony WH-1000MX3 headphones about half a year ago and when I first got them, they were fine. I did however experience one problem, which was that they wouldn't automatically connect to my PC when the bluetooth was on. So I unpaired both PC and headphones and deleted all the drivers on the PC and then restarted. Since then I have not been able to connect my headphones to my PC via bluetooth. But when they do show up in the bluetooth list, it's as an 'Other Device' so I can't use it.

Bluetooth not recognising headphones

Bluetooth on my PC recognises, pairs with and works with an ear piece headphone/mic.
Bluetooth on my Smartphone recognises, pairs with and works with an Ausdom headphone.
Therefore all hardware works.

However, PC Bluetooth will not recognise, let alone pair with, Ausdom headphone.

I have tried re-boots, turning Bluetooth on/off, uninstalling, re-loading drivers, etc. I have run out of ideas.

Any suggestions please?
