Headset pairs but does not connect with my computer - windows 10

I am trying to get my Bose headset to connect to my computer. It worked on my Laptop with Windows 10, but this new desktop computer with Windows 10 will just not do it. I tried many of the suggestions I found in this forum (which were from 2016 or so), nothing worked.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. Install the latest Windows updates.

2. Update or Rollback the Bluetooth driver in the Device Manager.
Open Device Manager >> click sound, video and game controllers >> right- click your Audio driver >> click Update Driver.
If the system says that you have the latest driver installed. Try to Roll back the driver. Right-click your Audio driver >> click Properties >> click Driver tab >> click Roll back driver.

3. Uninstall the currently installed Bluetooth driver then download and install the available driver from the PC manufacturer's website.

4. Run Windows troubleshooter.
Open Settings >> Update and Security >. Troubleshoot >> click Bluetooth >> click Run the troubleshooter.
