    Windows 10 doesn't detect my new xbox one controller


    Hi, i just bought a new controller (xbox one, compatible with bluetooth) but my computer can't see the controller while i try to appair them. But if i use a cable, the controller work well.

    I try the tutorial that microsoft have but it didn't worked out...

    Do you have a solution that doesn't involve buying a cable or the wirless usb thing ?

    Hey TT Nuddle,

    Thank you for reaching out. We understand your controller doesn't seem to be pairing with your PC but it still works when connected with a USB cable. If you haven't already done so, try updating the controller drivers on your PC as explained on the bottom
    section of our
    Using Xbox Controller on PC
    .

    1. Point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, and then select
      Search.
    2. Enter Device Manager in the search box, and then select
      Device Manager
      .

      Note Windows may ask you for an administrator password or to confirm your choice.
    3. Locate and expand Microsoft Xbox One Controller.
    4. Right-click the expanded Microsoft Xbox One Controller and select
      Update Driver Software.
    5. Select Search Automatically for Updated Software.

    In addition to this, you can also update/reinstall the Bluetooth drivers on your PC. Let us know how it goes! :D

    Be sure to be holding the sync button while pairing. I would go back and try again following the bluetooth steps closely. If no luck, a wired connection may be best, the wire would only cost a few dollars as micro usb cables are cheap.
