Description

What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

[Description here]

Dolphin create a new instance every time a wiimote disconnects. This ends creating infinite Windows device ID. Everytime the wiimote reconnect by holding 1+2, it creates another device id and another and another.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

[Reproduction steps here]

Just check how windows device id changes all the time.

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

[Every build]

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

[Yes]

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

[Windows 11]

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)

Since wiimote is already paired, dolphin should check the windows device id and try to connect to that instance.
