is windows 10 capable of syncing with mobile devices like android cell

I have win10 pro. i recently downloaded Microsoft Windows Mobile Device Center 6.1 Driver for Windows Vista

to attempt to syn my phone via Bluetooth, so i could play music from my cell phone. but i'm kinda stuck at getting the WMDC app running. it starts but never opens, then just closes down. i'm thinking it's a compatibility issue.

*ANY help would be greatly appreciated. *

I know i could just use Windows Media player, but i already have playlists and an archive of music on my phone, and it would be nice not to tie up resources on my Toshiba, just sync my phone and enjoy...

Or, does Win10 have a feature I am not aware of, or is there a good shareware app that can accomplish this without trying to solve the old win vista app issue? BTW, i never had vista, i just downloaded the app from microsoft.

THANKS!!

Hi and Welcome!

WMDC stop working on Windows 10 past build 1511.

Are these playlists not transferable to your PC via a USB cable?

Thx for replying Masterchief. Yes they transferable. What i wanted to do was be able to wirelessly utilize my mobile device on 3 different laptops i have in my home, and stream music on better audio than the phone has.

I've tried a few things and have configuration or interface issues. I'm sure they could be resolved, as i had wished to not invest $ in a speaker or such. However as i was wrestling with this issue, my son stopped home form college and had a Bose Soundlink Color II bluetooth speaker with him (ironically enough, borrowed from one of his dorm mates away for the weekend). He started it up and it has incredible sound, is totally wireless, seemlessly interfaces via bluetooth, and is small lightweight, and portable. So i purchased a refurbished one this afternoon on Amazon.

So my problem is solved, but my bluetooth audio interface with my cell- laptop isn't, but that's ok....mission accomplished.
