Whenever I connect a Bluetooth audio device I currently do

  1. Control Panel
  2. Bluetooth Devices
  3. Bluetooth Configuration
  4. Audio tab
  5. Connect

Which is a bit of a pain. The best I've managed to do is to have a shortcut on the desktop directly for step 2.

Isn't there a faster way?

Best would be to make Windows recognize when the audio device has been turned on and prompt for action, but I don't dream to get that far.

When your bluetooth is truned on, you should see a Bluetooth icon on system tray. Click it and you should see the option "Allow a device to connect".. try it.. if doesn't work, the press "Show Bluetooth devices" then select device and connect.

There's another shorter way,

Goto start menu and type bluetooth in the search box at the bottom of the start menu. Then a search result named "Change Bluetooth Settings" will appear. Drag it and Drop it on the desktop. It'll create a shortcut to the bluetooth settings dialog.

When you have added a bluetooth device once, it should show up when you open / type: view devices and printers

Over there you can right click on your speaker / headset and click: Advanced Operation -> connect to audio device
