Screenshot of a Windows PC failing to connect to a pair of headphones. The message reads "That didn't work. Make sure your Bluetooth device is still discoverable, then try again". The issue is neither pairing nor discoverability. This worked yesterday.

   Reason #5,367 that Bluetooth is just shit: My headphones won't connect to my PC tonight, nor can I remove the pairing so I can re-pair them.

   I'm familiar with the analogy that deleting a print job in progress is hard because it's like deleting a locked file, and there's big considerations given you're moving data from the virtual to the real world, but... there is no hardware involved in deleting a Bluetooth pairing, is there?

   Also these error messages are shit.
