    The most tried and true method would be with a USB connection. In order to be Bluetooth it needs to be the second generation Xbox One controller that is Bluetooth enabled.

    If you're using USB and it's still not working, check the PC and controller ports for damage, and also try using a different cord. Another option is to plug something else in with the same USB port on the PC to make sure that isn't the piece that is malfunctioning.

    Let us know if that's enough.

    Is the controller an Xbox controller with blutooth? Also does your laptop support blutooth? If not you can also wire the controller via a micro USB cable.
