Windows 10: Why can't I download music to my phone in Win 11.

Why has Microsoft made this so difficult. Phone is paired but can't connect or phone says connected then starts looking for a "CODE". Win 7 worked then MS tried to copy Apple and messed it up. Says paired but can't connect??? I have read everything I can online and even upgraded to Win 11 from 10. Please HELP. Would be nice if you could see a phone in File Explorer. This should be easy!

Listen to Android phone's music from desktop headphone

How to listen to [Android phone's music] from [a headphone that is connected to a Windows 10 desktop] without internet connection?
I have an Android phone (Pixel 3a) with YouTube Music installed on it.

When I don't have internet connection, I want to be able to wear my headphone, which is connected to my desktop (Windows 10) and listen to both my desktop's audio (for example, game sound) and the music playing on my phone (for example, music that is available only on the phone's YouTube Music offline downloaded folder).

How can I achieve this?

Note:

• I searched on the internet and it seems like Windows 10 doesn't have bluetooth support by default that support audio streaming from phone to PC. People seems to be able to install a different bluetooth driver and get it to work, but I can't get it to work. (if you can get it to work please list the exact step)
  
  
• This source says Pixel 3a has A2DP.

Apple to Offer Unlimited Music Downloads?

I think this is a great step in the right direction. I hope it actually works out. The only way to limit illegal downloads is for stuff like this to be implemented. And $20 extra for an ipod that I can legally download all the music I want?! That would just solidify the ipod's absolute dominance in the portable music department. Good stuff.*Smile
