Windows 10: Windows 10 bluetooth pairing dialog box too small

I've been searching for solutions to this apparently many years old problem. It is still a problem. After so many years.I'm running Window 10 pro on an HP laptop. Trying to pair another computer to transfer a file. Pairing begins with a dialog box to enter pairing code, yet the box is WAY too short to show the necessary info and enter a code. Don't forget that this pairing event will last for a few seconds, then quit. No time to waste. The dialog box will not resize by dragging the edges. I'm surprisingly frustrated that I'm finding threads concerning this exact problem with screenshots t

Had the same issue.

Workaround from suggestion by RudolfAT above:

1 - Click in the TITLE bar of the message box (where it says "Pair Device"

2 - Press the TAB key

3 - Press the ENTER key

If your phone is displaying the bluetooth pairing number, doing the 3 steps above SHOULD result in a "Connection Successful" message and you'll be all set.
