Windows 10: easier way to reconnect bluetooth device?

have bluetooth keyboard. i connected it to computer 1 (c1). works fine. i pressed the bluetooth button to put it into pairing mode, and paired it with computer 2 (c2). it's now paired and connected to c2, and only paired to c1.

is there no easy way to reconnect it back to c1? every time i restart the device, it connects directly to c2. it shown as paired in c1. no option to connect to c1.

held down bluetooth button on device to turn it back into pairing mode, still can't reconnect to c1. removed device from c2, still no connect button on c1.

do i need to go through remove device, and find device each time i want to swab between them?

Bluetooth devices will not reconnect after paired

After the latest major update to windows 10, my Bluetooth headset and my Bluetooth keyboard, after pairing, will not reconnect after disconnected. These devices have always been able to reconnect for subsequent uses even after original windows 10 install.
After this latest update, they no longer automatically reconnect. They are both listed in the devices list but will not connect. I have to remove and repair every time. Thanks for any help.

 

Bluetooth headset won't reconnect since april update

Hello,

I own a pair of Jaybird X2 bluetooth headphones that i connect using an Asus Bluetooth adapter.
Since the April creator's update, i am unable to reconnect the headphones simply by turning them on. Once i turn them off, they are gone for good. They still do appear as connected in the bluetooth devices list but wont appear in the list of audio device, even if i turn on disabled devices display.
The only way to get them to work again is by deleting them, then going through the pairing process again, which is tedious.
The headphones have at most 8hrs of battery life and turn off when i plug them, so i can't leave them on all the time as a temporary fix.
Does anybody have an idea on how to fix this ?
Thanks in advance.
