How can I easily connect and disconnect my bluetooth speakers in windows 8?

Question

I have a bluetooth speaker system in my windows 8.Is there any other way of connecting and disconnecting without re-adding the device with its drivers/going out of range and turning off bluetooth in windows 8?

I just found the solution:

Right-click on the sound icon on the task bar
Select playback device
Right-click on your Bluetooth device
Select connect or disconnect

Initially:

Right click on the sound icon on the task bar
Select playback device
Right click on your bluetooth device
Select connect

Then:

Go to Control -> Devices
Right-click on bluetooth device
Create shortcut on destop

When bluetooh is ON on both computer and device it automatically connects. It worked for me on BoatRockers wireless bluetooth earphone.

Well you can unpair the device in PC Settings. First you'd have to search up "Bluetooth" in the charms bar search icon. Then click on Settings to get the results. Click on "Add Bluetooth Device". (Yes I know you don't want to add a bluetooth device but keep on reading) Right click on the device you want to remove and there you go device removed. But if you want to add it again then click on "Add a device".
