This doesn’t work with Win 11 though. I miss it.

My overall experience with Bluetooth connectivity in Win11 has been challenging to put it very mildly.

Bluetooth on Windows is trash. It's not possible to have separate left and right volume controls, and headset buttons are not recognized.

Win + I brings a way busier screen but it shows the Bluetooth devices with their connect button right there.

Works in Windows 10 as well but there it requires an extra click to select the device so that the "connect" button is shown.
