Hi, I am a beginner in command line but is there a way to show options in a window through command prompt? I want to add a bluetooth device or remove it through command line.
I know how to open the bluetooth window:

bthprops.cpl

But is there a way to list the options in that would appear in that window in the cmd? (for example in linux you can add "--help" and it would list you propositions) Like "add wireless device" or "remove bluetooth device".
Thanks

I doubt the .cpl accepts any arguments in the command line though.
