Hello - So I have a MBP 16" that I've been using in "closed clamshell" mode since working from home - hooked up to an external monitor, external Windows keyboard and a Bluetooth mouse (not a USB mouse).
This is what I do: Monday-Friday I have my MBP running Windows 10 through Bootcamp for work use. Then on the weekends I switch over to MacOS for personal use. The problem is when I boot my MBP in MacOS it fails to connect to my Bluetooth mouse every single time....I then have to unhook my MBP, open the lid and use the track-pad to navigate to Settings > Bluetooth > Connect mouse....this is a PAIN. My question is, is there an easy way using my external Windows keyboard to navigate to the MacOS Bluetooth settings and reconnect my Bluetooth mouse? I have googled and googled and the only thing I find is how to do this using a Mac keyboard, not a Windows keyboard.
Any help would be appreciated. I would ask Siri to do this for me, but she does not work in "closed clamshell" mode, at least not for me.
