    Xbox 360 wireless adapter for PC not working


    It was working just fine, Then I plugged it into my laptop to play a game on my tv with a friend. Then I plugged it back into my desktop computer and windows can't detect it. I am using windows 10. Holding the connect button on the adapter makes it flash
    green when it is plugged in. I switched back to my laptop to see if the adapter was broken. It works perfectly find on my laptop.

    :)

    Xbox ONE controller with Xbox 360

    If I own an Xbox 360E and an Xbox ONE wireless controller with a wireless pc adapter can I connect the Xbox ONE controller to the Xbox 360 through the pc adapter?

    Wireless xbox adapter #2 Code 10

    I just bought the New Wireless Xbox adapter for PC, but it's not working. I have an updated win 10 pc.

    When i plug it in it says the adapter is ready for use, but the led indicator is not lit. In the Device manager i get ''Code 10''.

    xbox 360 controller not working on PC

    Is the controller a wireless controller or wired? If it is wireless, how are you connecting it? If by using the play & charge kit, then the Xbox 360 controller will not work, as the cable is only recognized on PC for charging only. You need to use a Xbox
    360 Wireless adapter for PC to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to your PC.

    Xbox 360 wired controller connected but not working on Windows 10

    Hello there.

    Xbox 360 wireless controllers only work on PC with the Xbox 360 Wireless PC adapter, they don't work via they Play & Charge cable. Even when you use the cable with an Xbox 360, the controller still uses the Wireless to function and the cable simply provides
    power.

    If you'd like to use a 360 pad with a PC, you either need a wired one, or you'll need one of these:

    Xbox 360 Wireless PC adapter.

    Alternatively, you can use an Xbox One controller. With those, you can connect as you are with a USB cable, or you can connect via Bluetooth (If you have one of the newer controllers which have a rough texture on the back of the hand grips) or with an Xbox
    One Wireless PC adapter.

    Can i connect a Wireless Usb dongle to my xbox 360 (not slim)?

    Only the official Microsoft Wireless adapters will work the 360. There is no native support or drivers for WiFi adapters used on PCs.

    Using windows controllers to control Xbox one

    If your controllers are wireless, then you are going to need the Xbox 360 wireless adapter for PC to be able to connect the controller to the PC. https://bit.ly/3zldL21

    If it's wired, then just plugging the controllers into the PC via the USB socket should work fine.
