Hi,
My problem is - my old Bluetooth Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Mouse refuses to pair in Windows 10! It paired instantly in OS X, yet it refuses to do so in Windows 10!
So far I have done as follows: started Windows, opened Settings - Bluetooth box, then turn my mouse on, then pressed and held the 'pairing' button on it, the mouse appears on the list of discovered devices, I select 'Pair' and after a second or so Windows says 'Could not pair, try again and make sure the mouse is discoverable again' - and the mouse disappears from the list and is not seen again there until I restart Windows. I repeated the same procedure dozens of times and so far was unsuccessful at pairing it in Windows 10.
So my question is - has anyone managed to successfully pair this mouse in Windows 10? Or any other Bluetooth mouse? (I'm ready to buy one, if I'm absolutely certain it'll work under Windows 10.)
I've been reading various forums, apparently I'm not the only one experiencing the same problem and so far no definite solution has been found.
(My equipment: MacBook Pro Retina 15'' late 2015 (quad core i7, 16GB RAM / 1TB SSD), OS X 10.11.3 / Windows 10 Home 64bit in boot camp.)
