Is there any way to use Bluetooth LE from a c# desktop app in windows 10?

by

You can use C# APIs in C# Desktop applications! I have a sample here in GitHub.

In general, to get access to the C# APIS, add two references to your project:

  1. C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\UnionMetadata\Windows.winmd
  2. C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETCore\v4.5\System.Runtime.WindowsRuntime.dll

Note that the #2 version depends on the version of .NET that you’re using.

Background tasks will not be supported, but all other Bluetooth C#
features should be there.
