    Xbox controller connection problems


    Recently I have used my Xbox one S wireless controller for playing games via Bluetooth. But one day when I tried to connect it like I normally do it doesn't show up any where in Bluetooth devices in settings like it normally did. It has fresh batteries
    in it at the moment. the only way I can use it is if I connect it with a USB cable. Any ideas on why its not connecting and how to fix it?

    :)

    See if you can do an update on the controller through the settings.

    Xbox controller connection problems

    Try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely. Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes. Plug the power cord back in and restart
    the console.

    Sadly, using the Xbox One controllers on PC via Bluetooth has been met with some issues. Bluetooth, while it works is spotty.

    Have you tried to disable Bluetooth in Windows 10, and then turning it back on? I've had this issue in the past and once I've done this, I was able to use my controller again. Give that a try. Also, if I may recommend that you see about picking up the Windows
    10 Xbox One wireless adapter. I say this I use this instead of Bluetooth on my Windows 10 PCs. That way I can use my Xbox One Elite controller nad no encounter the Bluetooth issues that have been reported.

    Xbox controller

    Your controller cannot wireless connect the console?

    or your controller cannot power on?

    If your controller cannot power on,

    You can try to usb connect, If work, this maybe your batteries problem,

    If not work too, you need get the new controller or fix it.

    If you cannot wireless connect,

    you can try use other controller wireless connect the console,

    If can other controller wireless connect is not work too,

    this is your console problem,

    else, controller problem.

    If you have xbox controller wireless adapter for windows,

    you can try it

    My Xbox controller won’t connect

    So recently my Xbox wasn’t connecting to the internet at all. The servers weren’t shut down, the Xbox would just not connect to the wifi. The Xbox gave me a notification that it had to do with a problem with the connection of the controller. The
    controller would have to be restarted and connect to the wifi. It restarted the controller but it wouldn’t connect to the Xbox. I tried syncing the controller like when I first got it, I tried other controllers, and I even tried using a cable to connect the
    controller to the Xbox, yet it still won’t connect.
    Other controllers works?

    All controller don't connect/work? Or only one? (maybe your preferred controller)

    "I have connected this controller to my Xbox one, and I'm wondering if the fact that this controller has been connected to an Xbox has anything to do with the problem)"

    When connected to the XBOX did you Update xbox wireless controller?
