Here's how to do that in Windows (especially Windows 10 or 11), plus tips if the notification disappears quickly.\n\n---\n\n## What to Try First \u2014 Swift Pair Notifications\n\nIf your controller supports **Swift Pair** (Windows 10/11 feature), when you turn it on and go into pairing mode, Windows sends a special \u201ctoast\u201d notification saying it has detected a device and offering buttons like **Connect**. JAWS users can interact with that notification as follows:\n\n1. When you hear the notification that a device is found, press the **Tab** key repeatedly until you hear \u201cConnect.\u201d  \n2. Press **Enter** to click the Connect button.  \n   ([support.microsoft.com](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-a-screen-reader-to-pair-a-bluetooth-device-in-windows-fd7b8d2c-5bcb-4f7b-a043-bc1f6d928387?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Using the Notification Area / Action Center\n\nDepending on version of Windows:\n\n- On **Windows 10**, press **Windows key + A** to open the Action Center.  \n- On **Windows 11**, *Quick Settings* and *Notifications* are separate. Press:\n  - **Windows key + A** for Quick Settings (tile-based features like Bluetooth toggle).  \n  - **Windows key + N** to open the Notifications area.  \n  ([toptechtidbits.com](https://www.toptechtidbits.com/186.html?utm_source=openai))\n\nOnce in the Notifications area:\n\n- Navigate with **Tab** to the notification you want.\n- Use **Arrow keys** (up/down) if needed to move through multiple notifications.\n- Once you hear the notification with the \u201cConnect\u201d or equivalent option, press **Tab** or **Shift+Tab** until the focus moves to \u201cConnect,\u201d then press **Enter**.\n\n---\n\n## Using the JAWS Notification History\n\nIf you missed the notification, or if it disappeared too quickly:\n\n- Press **JAWS key + Spacebar**, then hit **N** to open **Notification History**.  \n  ([afb.org](https://afb.org/aw/23/11/18108?utm_source=openai))\n- Use **Arrow keys** or **Tab** to move to the notification you want.\n- Once you find it, navigate to the action button (e.g. \u201cConnect\u201d) via **Tab**, then **Enter**.\n\n---\n\n## Extra Commands for the Notification Area / System Tray\n\nIf the notification is actually a part of the system tray area or expects you to click an icon:\n\n- Press **Windows key + B** \u2014 this moves focus to the notification area or system tray.  \n  ([vip.chowo.co.uk](https://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Taskbar-7-Guide.html?utm_source=openai))\n- Use the **Right Arrow** or **Left Arrow** keys to cycle among icons. If there's a relevant icon (Bluetooth icon or a Swift Pair popup), navigate to it.\n- Press **Enter** or **Spacebar** when you've focused the icon that has the necessary action.  \n  ([vip.chowo.co.uk](https://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Taskbar-7-Guide.html?utm_source=openai))\n\n---\n\n## Summary Checklist\n\n- Enable Bluetooth on your laptop and on the controller (pairing mode).  \n- Wait for the toast notification (Swift Pair).\n- Press **Tab** until you hear \u201cConnect,\u201d then **Enter**.  \n  \u2192 Or use **Windows + A** (in Windows 10) / **Windows + N** (in Windows 11) to open notifications.  \n- If missed, open JAWS Notification History: **JAWS key + Spacebar, N**.  \n- If you see a tray icon instead, use **Windows + B** then arrow keys to navigate to it, then **Enter**.\n\n---\n\nIf you tell me which version of Windows you\u2019re using and which version of JAWS, I can give you even more precise steps matching your setup."
