I just bought a Microsoft Arc Touch Bluetooth Mouse for my Macbook Pro with touch bar (early 2017). It works fine under Mac OS but it won't pair under Windows 10 (Bootcamp).
Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Mouse and Mac. Tl;dr: Everything works properly, except the Windows Button. But you can remap it to Mouse Button 4 using KeyRemap4MacBook. I just got a new mouse: Microsoft Sculpt Mobile Mouse. And because I only use Mac OS X, I didn’t expect that all the features are available on OS X. The Sculpt Comfort Keyboard and Mouse are maximized for comfort and customized for you. With its contoured design, customizable features that easily adjust to your needs, and a specially designed, right-handed mouse, Sculpt Comfort Desktop transforms the way you use a keyboard and mouse. The ease and speed of the Windows touch tab means you can get things done with precision and effortless control. Plus, Sculpt Comfort Mouse’s intuitive, modern design and high functionality make it the perfect complement to your Windows 10 experience.

After a lot of frustration I even wiped my Windows 10 installation, reformatted the SSD and installed a clean, virgin version of Windows 10 Pro 1703 as well as the updates from Microsoft and the Apple Software updates that arrived after Bootcamp 6.1.
The Windows 10 Pro Version 1703 shows the Broadcom Serial Bus Driver over UART Bus Enumerator, version 12.0.1.871 in the device manager. The bluetooth icon is visible. Bluetooth pairs fine with all sorts of other devices such as headphones, my radio with bluetooth and so on but it won't connect to any mouse. I also tested it with a Logitech M535 Bluetooth mouse and a Microsoft Sculpt Comfort Bluetooth mouse - with the same negative results under Windows 10 whilst working fine under MacOS Sierra 10.12.5.

When starting the bluetooth menu under Windows 10 it sometimes shows the correct device name (e.g. Microsoft Arc Touch Mouse or Logitech .../M535 mouse) but a couple of minutes later the Bluetooth listing discovers an 'unknown device'. In both cases pairing ends with a time-out after approx. 3 minutes.
I even tried turning off Wifi during the pairing process. All mice had brand-new batteries and I also pressed the little pairing button on each mouse.
