Removing connection between controller and Xbox One

janderchuck · Dec 26, 2015

I recently received the wireless adapter for my Windows 10 PC and I'm using an xbox one controller now for playing games on it. I also have an elite controller that I'm using with my xbox one. My PC and Xbox one are very close in proximity and I can't
figure out how to tell it to ignore my old controller that I want synced with my PC.

I have looked on some of the forums and have googled the best I can but I don't see anyone posting on how to do this.

So how do you remove the sync between a controller and the xbox one?

Problem with bluetooth antenna in Xbox

Hey there JustJackTheLad.

We don't recommend repairing anything yourself as it will break the warranty of your Xbox One. To check, do you have any other USB devices plugged into your Xbox One you can try removing to see if there's any change with your connection? Also if there are any
other wireless devices in between you and the controller, they may be causing some interference.

Where does the XB1 controller get its audio signal from?

the audio comes from the wireless connection between the controller and xbox,

Once you have synced the controller with the PC wireless adapter the console should no longer recognise it afterwards.

That is not what is happening. When I push the power button at the top of my controller it still starts my Xbox one. I can then sync it with my PC when the controller is turned on, but I then have to shutoff my Xbox. I'm looking for a way for it to not
start the Xbox when powering on the controller

It's a problem with connectivity in some xbox consoles. Maybe you're playing too far or something gets in the way between the xbox and the controller.

Try to play nearer the console or remove any furniture that could interfere with the connection.

Is there a difference between the Bluetooth on the Elite and the one on the regular Xbox one controllers. My other controllers connect without an issue, but not the Elite.

Hello so I have a very specific problem.

My Xbox One controller won't connect to my PC via Bluetooth anymore, it used to work however.

The controller will connect to my laptop with windows 10 and it also works when connect to an Xbox One.

My friends controllers can connect to my PC no problem.

In my Bluetooth listed devices it says "xbox one controller: paired" it never connects though, and when I "remove device" it does remove but whenever I restart my PC it comes back listed as "paired". It doesn't connect whether I click remove device and
it's no longer listed or try after restarting and it's listed as paired.

When going to add new device it never gets picked up, but as I said it can pick up other Xbox controllers and they can connect and work no problem.

My Xbox One controller also works when connected via a wired connection.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers, nothing has changed.

There is something strange going on between the connection of my controller and my PC via Bluetooth and I don't know how to fix it. Again the controller works on my laptop and xbox and other controllers work on my PC, it is specific to my controller connecting
to my PC.

I'm not 100% sure what happened but it happened on a day I was playing Xbox One and games on my PC and I think I might have clicked "remove device" while trying to connect it back to the Bluetooth because it was taking a while to pick it up and I wanted to
make sure it was going to get picked up by the PC since it was paired with the Xbox at the time. I don't remember the specifics of what happened but I think it was something along those lines and ever since then it hasn't worked.

You must check your controller generation to see whether it has blutooth enables or not.
