Some tutorials on the Internet say that python3.11.0 has to be downgraded to python3.6 and then installed. However, I checked the github issue and found that this is all nonsense. The normal installation method is like this:

First, since pybluez needs to compile some cpython modules, it needs to install the C++ build environment and Windows SDK.

# 输出所有已连接的设备
for addr, name in devices:
print("Found device:", name, "with address:", addr)
If nothing else, it should output a result similar to the following:
