Xbox app not recognizing my xbox 360 controller (wireless) but I've been playing games with it?

My PC is on windows 11. I have my Xbox 360 controller connected via the 'Xbox 360 wireless receiver for windows' the controller works fine for all games, I have just completed the Halo Master Chief collection with it and wanted to move on to Halo 5 Guardians on the cloud streaming platform on the app.

To do this it says connect an Xbox controller, the Xbox controller is already connected and I can see it is connected in my settings under devices (This is not done via Bluetooth). I don't know if this makes a difference or not (that might just be the problem but I'm not sure). It seems odd that I can play every single game I have downloaded on my PC but when it comes to streaming games on the Xbox app it does not work.

I have previously looked for the solution online before coming here as to not waste any time and effort of one of your team however, all efforts have been useless. I have updated everything to the current version on both windows and the Xbox app and restarted my PC, disconnected the receiver and the controller; closed the app down and nothing seems to work. When i click the 'Add Device' button on the devices settings tab it does not recognize that there is an Xbox controller as I do not have Bluetooth installed as an option with my PC.

If anyone can help I would be greatly appreciative as I really want to play Halo 5. I would buy it were it available however, it apparently is the only game out of the Halo series that is not available to buy on the PC.
