How to use this keyboard with Windows?

Getting it to connect via Bluetooth can be finnicky, but once you do, this utility can help you remap the keys. As an Apple user forced to use a Windows computer at work, I really wanted to be able to remap the Command key to Ctrl on windows (so Cmd+C and Cmd+V would still work) and this allows you to do that.

Hi.
It does work with Windows (I'm using it with Windows 7 x64 and Windows 8 DP x64) on my pc. although it does not pair with my hp laptop (windows 7 x86).
My PC has a generic Bluetooth USB device (cost $1) and it work instantaneously, while it never shows up on my hp laptop (inbuilt Bluetooth device). I've read up on the apple site that the problem is with Bluetooth drivers and a custom one cost a fair amount of money (link below).

I would recommend the generic Bluetooth device option since it worked for me, costs less and is easy to set up.. just plug an play (& disable inbuilt Bluetooth device if necessary).
