This is just a short little Tech How To to show you how to setup your Apple AirPods on a Windows 10 computer. It’s relatively simple, just not as fast as it is through your iPhone. Essentially you just Pair them as regular Bluetooth headphones!
A couple of things to keep in mind when you use your AirPods with Windows 10, first off Siri will not work on double tap, neither will the play pause. So that being the case whatever you were listening too will not pause when you remove one AirPod like it does when you use them with your Mac, iPad or iPhone. But they will still function as descent sounding wireless headphones!
So let’s get to the pairing!
We can access the Bluetooth settings from the system tray, you will likely have to expand the system tray by pressing the arrow up on the left side of the system tray with the popup that reads “Show Hidden Icons”. Once the system tray is expanded you can click on the Bluetooth icon and choose the “Add a Bluetooth device” option. This will open the Bluetooth and other devices menu.
Then click on “Add Bluetooth or other device”.
Now on the AirPods case, open the lid then press and hold the Pairing Button.
Then back in Windows choose Bluetooth and now wait for the AirPods to appear in the list of detected devices. Once they appear in the list choose them and complete the pairing.
Now when you want to use the AirPods in Windows 10 just choose them in the Bluetooth menu and vola, your AirPods are now working with Windows 10!
