Pair AirPods with PC - This works!

I always miss one step when trying to pair my AirPods with my PC, so I'm capturing these instructions here. If you don't see your AirPods listed when you are trying to pair them via Bluetooth with your PC, there's likely one step below you are missing. Try again! :)

Pair AirPods with PC

1. On your PC, go to the settings for Bluetooth and make sure that Bluetooth is on (Windows Key + S, type in "Bluetooth and other devices settings")
2. Click the "+" button at the top to "Add Bluetooth or other device", then Click "Bluetooth Mice, keyboards, pens or audio and other kinds of Bluetooth devices"
3. With your AirPods in the charging case, open the lid.
4. Press and hold the setup button on the back of the case until you see the status light flash white.
5. When your AirPods appear in the list of Bluetooth devices, select them.

AirPods should now be paired.
