    My xbox360 controller doesn't connect to the wireless receiver


    Hello,

    I have been trying to connect my xbox360 controller to my laptop, but I'm not able to solve that. My wireless receiver is working as it should be and my controller as wel. But the controller doesn't connect to the receiver. I used several usb portals. Still
    no connection. I received a CD with my receiver for the software, but my laptop isn't capable with a CD. That's probably because I recently obtained my laptop. It uses Windows 10. What can I do to solve it?

    Greetings,

    Luuk

    :)

    XBox 360 Wireless Controller for WIndows

    I recently bought the XBox 360 Wireless Controller for Windows which contains the controller and the wireless receiver. Which I am currently using from my PC.

    Question: If I have another
    XBox 360 Wireless Controller     can It connect to the wireless receiver so I can have 2 Game Controllers for Multiplayer games

    Xbox controller won't connect to Xbox but to the wireless adapter

    so I had 2 controllers one for Windows and one for the Xbox360,

    Now they both connects only to the wireless receiver for Windows and they won't connect to the xbox360.

    And even before I couldn't connect the xbox360 controller for Windows to my xbox...

    Can I fix it? Tried so many ways but I have no clue..

    Ty.

    Xbox 360 controller for Windows 8.1

    The Play and Charge kit doesn't allow a wireless controller to connect to a PC as a game pad. You'll need the wireless gaming receiver for a wireless controller to connect.

    Compatibilidade entre Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop Receiver 2.1 e Controle Xbox 360 sem fio

    Hi,

    The Wireless Optical receiver doesn't work with the Xbox 360 controller. The 360 uses it's own type of wireless protocol. To connect the controller you'll need a Xbox 360 wireless gaming receiver.

    Connect xbox elite controller to PC

    The elite controller doesn't have bluetooth so unless you have a MS wireless receiver connected to your PC, no way you are getting a wireless connection between your PC and controller.

    You can use a wired connection or use one of the newer controllers who do have bluetooth.

    Xbox one headset on PC

    I used the wireless adapter to connect the the joystick to the PC, with that done all i needed to do was connect the headset to the controller and the windows would recognize it as Headset (Xbox360 wireless receiver for windows). But i contacted microsoft
    support about the X1 headset and i was told that it will work fine as well, and i already ordered it. When it arrives i will report the result here.

    Windows 10 does not recognize the Xbox 360 controller

    Hi,

    I suspect you're attempting to connect an Xbox 360 wireless controller to your PC using a Play & Charge cable? Effectively making it a wired controller?

    I'm afraid this won't work. Unlike Xbox One/Series X controllers, wireless 360 controllers are always wireless, connecting a Play & Charge simply charges the battery or powers the controller if no battery is present. Unfortunately the cable doesn't send data.

    The only way to connect these controllers to a PC is via an Xbox 360 gaming receiver. The receiver for Xbox one controllers is not compatible.
