    I tried to download the drivers as .cab, but there's no installer
    for it either.

    I also tried updating windows, typing these in CMD as admin "dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth" and "sfc/scannow" but still nothing helps.

    And scanning for hardware changes with it just froze my pc and had to reset it.

    It actually started after i installed the xbox accessories app.

  2. Problem with Wireless Adapter for Windows

    Hi, I bought the Wireless Adapter controller for windows but I had a problem with the drivers, the white light doesn't turn on and I can't connect the Xbox One controller. I go to my PC, and devices manager and I get an error messege, so I now want to install
    the drivers by myself. Anyone can give the drivers to install please.

    Thanks a lot.

  3. Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows Problems

    Installs and connects to controller. However once a game is started, the game detects constant trigger pull that is not occurring. I believe this a problem of the driver file xboxgip.sys that it uses. I had the same problem using the XBox One controller
    WIRED to my win 10 pc. It installed the same xboxgip.sys driver. Only after downloading and manually installing drivers from "Major Nelson" website did it work correctly. Connecting the wireless adapter auto installs drivers for the adapter itself as well
    as the controller connecting to it and there is no way I know of to change the driver of just the wireless controller.

    Its frustrating that there is no manual driver install for the adapter as Microsoft is determined to keep this adapter a Windows 10 Exclusive. Might help fix this issue. Next step will probably do a clean install of windows if only to rule out any old 360
    drivers or third party drivers interfering. The 360 version worked flawlessly and I loved the product. Been waiting two years for this device to let me down.

    Heya!

    Thank you in advance for all of the info you provided!

    To be sure, have you gone through every step on the
    Controller setup guide
    ?

    Are you only using the internal services to acquire the drivers or have you tried downloading them from other sources as well?

    If you have tried online sources could you link us to them?

    Post back and let us know how that goes!

  5. Yes, that guide doesn't help as windows simply can't find the drivers for them online, and where can i download the drivers manually? Cause the .cab drivers won't work for me as i can't install them.

    Have not tried any sources. Only to uninstall the drivers and installing them again.

    And when i try to connect the controlelr, it connects, then immediately slowly dims the LED on the controller off and the adapter stops blinking too. It works fine on my laptop, just not on the desktop.

    Xbox bluetooth adapter and PC

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the community. How are you, mate?

    See if these steps help you, mate.

    Try reinstalling the drivers in case they have partially installed. To do so, you need to uninstall the drivers. Follow these steps to complete this process:

    Go to your Device Manager.

    Locate Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows in the Network adapters section.

    Click Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows to bring up the Properties window.

    Click on the Driver tab.

    On the Driver tab, click the Uninstall button.

    On the confirmation window, check Delete the driver software for this device.

    Unplug the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows and reboot your Windows 10 device. Once the device is back on, plug in the adapter.

    If the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows still does not install, follow all of the above steps thoroughly one more time.
