Wireless Gaming Adapters: Help connecting a Xbox One USB Adapter to my PC

Hi, you can do it in two ways:

First one and the easiest is to connect a USB cable from the PC to the controller, the second one (if you want a wireless connection) is to use an Xbox One Controller Adapter which can be found here: https://www.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/accessories/adapters/wireless-adapter-windows

Hope this helps.

Hello Quinquadrate,

I asume you are talking about the official Xbox Wireless Adapter Controller.

Is that is true, you can follow the steps described in here for connecting it : https://beta.support.xbox.com/help/...ories/xbox-wireless-adapter-for-windows-setup

If not, the other solution is :

Plug the Wireless Adapter to your PC

Connect your Xbox One Controller to your PC via USB cable

When the controller is connected, unplug the USB cable from the controller

At this point, the controller should be paired with your Wireless Adapter (or at least, that works for me everytime!)

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:

Yes, you can use the Xbox One wireless headset chat mixer on PC if you have the USB wireless adapter.

To do this, you will need to follow these steps:

1. Connect the USB wireless adapter to your PC.
   
2. Turn on your Xbox One wireless headset and hold down the power button on the headset until it starts flashing. This puts the headset in pairing mode.
   
3. Press the pairing button on the USB wireless adapter until the LED starts flashing.
   
4. Once the LED on the USB wireless adapter stops flashing and stays lit, the headset is paired with your PC.
   
5. Open the Xbox Accessories app on your PC, and click on the "Xbox One Wireless Controller" device.
   
6. From there, you can adjust the chat mixer settings to your liking.
   

Once you have completed these steps, you should be able to use the chat mixer on your Xbox One wireless headset with your PC.
