Introduction

When I first got these headphones they worked perfectly with my phone but trying to get them to connect to my Windows pc seemed hopeless. In my case, they paired & pressing 'connect' showed the headphones as connected, but the audio device was disabled & disconnected in sound settings. I later realised that they instantly connected & worked properly with my newer laptop, so the following guide was produced by imitating the setup my laptop automatically configured. This is something you should only have to do once when initially pairing the device.

Method

1. First ensure that you are attempting to pair the device as WH-1000XM3 and not LE_WH-1000XM3. I'm not sure what the latter is for but it will not let you connect/play s

PowerShell Tips

Write-Host vs Write-Output

Write-Host writes directly to the console; Write-Output writes to the pipeline, which often ends up to the console but not necessarily.

For example: Write-Host "The Cake is a lie" | Out-Null won't work as expected, Write-Output "The Cake is a lie" | Out-Null will.
