    For anyone struggling to connect their XBOX controller wirelessly through bluetooth (ie...


    I spent weeks trying to figure out why I couldn't connect my Bluetooth devices to Windows 10. I built my pc by myself so for the longest time I thought maybe I had installed something wrong. After going into my pc for a few times, I realized that I didn't install anything wrong and whatever is causing the issue is not hardware related. SO FINALLY, after scrolling through COUNTLESS threads that had the SAME issue, I found a FIX!

    The answer below is what helped me fix this issue and I can't believe how simple it was I just want to slap myself for not thinking of it.

    Hi Priti,

    Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. Try the following steps and check if it helps.

    Step 1: Make sure that the Bluetooth Support Service is running.

    Sign in to your computer as an administrator user and then follow the steps given below to check the status of the Bluetooth Support Service.

    1. Press Windows Key + R Key.
    2. Type services.msc and scroll down to Bluetooth Support Service in the list.
    3. Right click on it and select Properties.
    4. Set the Service Status as Start.
    5. Restart your computer.

    Step 2: I would also suggest you to update Bluetooth driver along with other motherboard drivers from the computer manufacturer's website and check if it helps.

    Also refer the following link for more information.

    Why isn't Windows finding my Bluetooth or other wireless device? (Applies to Windows 10)

    Hope this helps you. Keep us posted with the status of the issue to assist you further.

    Thank you.

    ALRIGHT THAT WAS IT, hope that helps some of you.

    PS theres a 2nd service below it which I just started too just to be safe. If the 1 service is not enough you can try that.

    :)

    My controller keeps disconnecting mid game

    Is this an Xbox One controller, or an Xbox 360 controller? If it's an Xbox One controller, are you connecting wirelessly to the PC via Bluetooth, or with the Xbox Wireless Adapter?

    Can you connect a Bluetooth Headset to Xbox One S controller

    It will not work for headsets.

    The Bluetooth capabilities are for connecting the controller to a PC wirelessly.

    Xbox Elite Serie 1 can´t pair mobile with Android 9 (Bluetooth)

    The Xbox Elite Controller can’t connect wirelessly to your Android device since it doesn’t operate over Bluetooth

    Xbox Series X/S controller not pairing to Windows PC

    do you have the wireless xbox adapter for pc plugged in (needed for wireless connection), or are you using bluetooth on the pc (needed for bluetooth connection to the controller).

    the following three ways to connect the controller:

    1. USB C cable

    2. Bluetooth

    3. Wirelessly using the xbox wireless adapter for windows 10 (about 24.99 from retailers)
