This article is about how to use the "Settings" application on Windows 10 to add or remove devices. I think it is very practical, so I share it with you. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

When connecting any hardware or peripheral to the windows 10 PC, the system will always attempt to install and configure the device automatically using the built-in driver or Windows Update.

Although the system usually detects new devices well, sometimes specific hardware or peripherals cannot be detected automatically, or you need to configure wireless devices, in which case you must add manual hardware.

In this windows 10 guide, we will guide you through the steps to quickly add devices such as mice, keyboards and printers to your computer using the Settings application. In addition, we will outline the steps to remove the device if it causes a problem or if you no longer need it.

How to add a device using Settings

The Settings application provides two ways to add new devices, depending on whether you are setting up a new printer or other peripherals.

Add hardware and peripherals

To add a new device to your computer (or view a list of connected devices), use the following steps:

-- Open the settings.

-- Click device.

-- Click Bluetooth and other devices.

-Click the add Bluetooth or other device button.

-- Select the type of device you want to add, including:

Bluetooth-set up mouse, keyboard, pen or wireless speakers.

Wireless display or cradle-set up a wireless monitor, Miracast or wireless cradle.

Everything else-set anything that doesn't belong to the first two options. Some devices may include DLNA devices and Xbox controllers with wireless adapters.

-Select a device from the Discovery list.

-- continue to use simple screen instructions to complete the settings.

After completing these steps, the system will install the correct driver and configure the device, which you should be able to use without additional steps.

Add Printer

Although printers fall into the hardware and peripherals category, windows 10 includes a separate experience for installing printers and scanners.

To add a new printer or scanner, make sure the device is turned on and connected, and do the following:

-- Open the settings.

-- Click device.

-- Click printers and scanners.

-Click the add Printer or Scanner button.

Select a device from the list, and then click the add device button.

After completing these steps, the printer will be installed automatically, and you should be able to print from any application.
