    Why does windows 11 not support xbox 360 wireless adapters for windows.


    I have tried multiple different wireless adapter devices and drivers and reset my computer multiple times in an attempt to use an xbox 360 controller to play rocket league/overcooked but my pc simply refuses to allow it to work.

    Originally I bought a cable for the xbox 360 controller ( I was almost certain this wouldn't work) then I moved onto a wireless adapter that was off-brand. I then purchased an official microsoft wireless adapter for the xbox 360 controller and none of this has worked.

    I have installed countless drivers including work around drivers from 2007 that allowed me to configure the hardware to my sepcific device after disabling digital signature. No matter what I do it seems Microsoft is not supporting third party technology or even its own older technology.

    On top of that I no longer have haptic feedback working in my mouse (it rumbles based on sound output). I believe this is a result of windows 11 as it worked fine on my previous pc but I cannot find how to get windows 10 without purchasing a usb stick and reformatting my entire pc AGAIN.

    :)

    Here’s a compatibility chart for the adapter you may have:

    Can the X Box One Wireless Controller with Bluetooth also be used with the X Box One Wireless Adapter for Windows 10?

    Hi Beau,

    Thank you for coming to the Xbox forums, I'd be happy to answer that.

    The Xbox One Wireless controller with Bluetooth can be connected to a Windows 10 PC with a USB cable, Bluetooth, or with the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10, so yes, it can be connected via the adapter. The Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 is not
    compatible with an Xbox 360 controller and will need the Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows. I'll provide the support articles with this information:


    I hope this helps!
