Do wii remotes work on win10?

I tried doing it on my laptop since my desktop doesn't have bluetooth connectivity but nothing shows up

I've never heard of anyone trying to do this to be honest.

You have to press the 1 and 2 buttons simultaneously to connect it. You can use it then in an emulator like Dolphin, but not on its own.

No, the Wiimote uses bluetooth to communicate. The "sensor" bar is actually just 2 IR-LEDs and they are only needed if you want to use the pointing capabilities of the Wiimote. In that case, you can either use a battery-powered sensor bar or you can use two lit candles next to each other with about 20cm distance between them.

in short the article says: 

 

Step 3 – Connect the Wii Remote

• 
  
• • Open Bluetooth Settings. There should be a Bluetooth icon in the taskbar. If not, look under Control Panel; Hardware; Device Manager. Click on Bluetooth Devices, then “Add a Device”.
  • Hold down the 1+2 buttons on your Wiimote to activate Discovery Mode (the four LEDs should all blink). When it is detected it should appear in the Add a Device screen as Nintendo RVL-CNT...
  • Select the Wiimote and Click “Next” in the Add a Device Screen. 
  • Click “Pair Without Using a Code”. When it has finished Configuring a notification should pop up informing you that you are connected!

:D
