I used a steel stand to keep the switch for a while, causing it to have some scratches on the back. Is there any way for me to cover them?
Hardware How do I cover scratches on the back of the console?

I’ve personally stuck the following onto mine:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nintendo-Switch-Protect-Protection-PDP/dp/B073GPB8KP
Keeps the back reasonably scratch protected & covered for what is just a sticker. Does the job though.

IIRC, it is anodized aluminum and black ABS that the switch's chasis is made from.
Anodized aluminum is "theoretically" fixable with a steady hand, a graphite cathode, and a solution of dilute sulfuric and boric acids--- but I would not recommend. (needs high voltages, needs a clean area to clamp the anode of your plating machine, etc.)
ABS could theoretically be fixable with a synthetic fiber based felt-pen, loaded with an appropriate solvent, like hexane. (USE WITH CARE)

Ever nitice how when something gets wet, the blemishes disappear? (ie the water fills them up)
Knowing this...
You could...
Let your Switch live in a fishtank
Or seriously now...
Lacquer the back to gloss it up. Achieves the same thing
Or use bullshit spray (as we call it in UK) - silicone spray like you use on car dashboards. Called bullshit spray because you put it on car plastics just before you sell it

But any desktop OS, I've never had anything but frustration trying to get Bluetooth devices to work reliably and stable. It might pair and connect once, and then next time I go to use it I have to delete and re-pair it again

Not recently but I think it's less a driver issue and more just Windows having a garbage Bluetooth stack
