I know that's a skill that I have, and I used it so many times it became effortless, but it all goes to one of jokes I like - that asks how do you eat an elephant. Easy - with a fork.
So in that particular case I have a keyboard and it's misbehaving. I know that by some dark magic I can make it behave as I want and that software on Windows can do that.
So I think, "ok, how does it communicate?" - with Bluetooth, obviously. So my next thought it: can I transmit over bluetooth magic bytes that do exactly like this. I definitely have a device on my computer, so I can try to make it.
From that it's all about "how to send arbitrary stuff from bluetooth" search. Instinct tells me there has to be a library, or that at least on person on world wide web tried to do something similar.
If I find even single instance of this, I'm home - read what they did, try to figure out if I can adjust it and do so. Hocus pocus - binary switcher happens.
Though, in the end, it's all about approach. I found many people say "I don't know how to do it, so I don't". My approach is "I rarely know what do, but that doesn't stop me from trying". And this trying new stuff brings practice for the next unknown endeavor.
