Does any one know if Windows support codecs other than SBC and how to verify which one is used when playing over BT headphones?

Buy an aptx adaptive dongle. Fastest way

Windows supports and uses aptx by default on the newer builds

I think it was defaulting to AAC for me when I tried on my new set up booting into Windows. I was looking for a way to switch it since it was easy on SteamOS/Linux to switch to AptX LL.

There's a dell Bluetooth audio driver that unlocked aptX on windows 8 and above. There's also an experimental LDAC driver made by the same people who developed Bluetooth tweaker. You'll need to manually delete ACVRP driver in device manager to get remote control to work, though
