I'm afraid to say but at the moment there is no such feature for Xbox controllers, including the Adaptive controller.
It's always required to manually turn it on once you restart the PC / console.

Hi,

If you’re using the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10:

1. Turn on your PC and sign in.
   
2. Plug the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows into your PC. For more info, see
   Set up the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.
   
3. Turn on your controller by pressing the
   Xboxbutton. When you turn on the controller, the
   Xbox button will start flashing.
   
4. Press and hold the
   Pair button on the Xbox Wireless Adapter. A small light will flash for several seconds.
   
5. Press and hold the
   Pairbutton on the top of the controller (the raised button). The
   Xbox button on the controller will flash more rapidly – this means your controller is searching for the Xbox Wireless Adapter.
   When connected, the Xbox button on the controller will stay lit.
   

Hi, Kathy A. I don`t really understand what "customized PC" means. I have average pc with windows 11. I read that support artcile. But still I can`t get it how with some chinese bluetooth adapter windows 11 recognizes my xbox wireless controleer as xbox wireless controller (as It should be by default) but xbox wirelles adapter for windows doesn`t recognize my xbox wireless adapter as xbox wireless adapter. Plus that issue about usb 3.0 issue I mentioned. Plus I forgot to mention - after my pc comeback from sleep/hybernate I can`t turn on my xbox wireless controller just with button press like I did when used itt via some chinese bluetooth adapter. With xbox wireless adapter I have to to delete it everytime after pc sleep and turn on again - plugging in usb 3.0 on my deepcoll cg540 case. Except fact that it`s just annoying my usb 3.0 liftime is discreasing by that. Plus when I used my controller via chinese adapter I could see charge persent in w9indows options. With xbox wireless adapter for windows I can`t get this info anymore. It`s all weird and frustrating to me.

P.S. Yes, I tried to reinstall drivers, delete device etc. Nothing helped. And I don`t have another pc.

Regards, Dmytro.
