How to use Beats Studio 3 headphones with Windows 10

Can anyone help me connect my Beats Studio 3 wireless headphones to my Windows 10 laptop please?

• Windows is paired with and connected to my headphones if I try with Bluetooth
• I cannot both hear and be heard, sometimes neither, on skype calls an WebEx meetings
• Even when I use my headphones wired my voice is being picked up from my laptop instead of my headphones

I can use the headphones for calls wirelessly with both my iPhone and MacBook.

 

Beats Studio Wireless 2 as a Gaming Headset

I bought a y-shaped audio splitter to use my Beats Studio Wireless 2 as a gaming headset. They performed this function flawlessly for a while but just stopped working one day. I'm using my Beats wire with a built-in mic as the mic. It also won't let me
set my Beats as a default device. (Just additional information.) I'm ready and willing to undergo a process to get these working as a gaming headset again.
