    Xbox Elite Controller Series 2 Bluetooth connectivity issues on Windows 10


    I have the infamous problem where my brand new Elite controller randomly disconnects while playing games. This causes the game to lag for a few seconds until it's completely disconnected. It stays disconnected for about 5 seconds before reconnecting. This
    is a really common issue, that I haven't seen any fixes for except buying the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

    I've updated to the latest firmware on the controller, and latest windows update. I've read through the xbox bluetooth troubleshooting guide, and tried almost everything that people has suggestet. It's been well over half a year since the controller was
    released, so I'm just wondering if they've finally found a way to fix this issue. If you know anything that might help, please let me know. Thanks!

    :)

    the elite controller series 2 has Bluetooth compatibility and is therefore compatible with windows 10 too. the first release of the elite controller was before xbox was integrated into windows 10, therefore there was no need at the time for Bluetooth.

    Elite Controller 2 Bluetooth issues

    Having similar Issues. My Elite series 2 controller works fine for about an hour or so, then will disconnect. Half the time it will auto reconnect after 2 or 3 seconds, the other half it will not reconnect at all and I have to manually turn off the controller
    and turn it back on for it to reconnect. Each time it does disconnect the frame rate of the game plummets for a few seconds. Then after some time passes, roughly an hour give or take, the issue will repeat for the entire gaming session.

    My windows 10 is up to date as of this posting at build 1909 and my Elite series 2 controller is updated as well.

    The support article for troubleshooting bluetooth issues on windows 10 does not help with the issue.

    I have never connected the Elite series 2 controller to my Xbox One S, I bought it solely for PC gaming.

    Forgot to mention, I am connecting via bluetooth. I do not have a wireless adapter nor do I want to connect using a usb cable.

    Are Xbox Wireless Controller user remap profiles supported when connecting to Windows 10 PC via bluetooth? Works fine when USB

    Hi

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. I'd be happy to answer that.

    Customizing user profiles on a Windows 10 PC is not supported via Bluetooth. Any Bluetooth capable Xbox One controllers will need to be plugged in via USB-C or through the Xbox Wireless Adapter if you want to customize and use custom profiles. The Xbox Accessories
    app will not detect your controller over Bluetooth connection.

    Use the Xbox Accessories app to customize your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2  

    Things to keep in mind:

    • The Xbox Accessories app is only available on Xbox One and Windows 10.
    • To configure the Xbox Elite Wireless Controller Series 2, get the Windows 10 May 2019 Update (or later) and make sure your PC has the latest fixes.

      See how to get updates
      .
    • The Xbox Accessories app won’t detect your controller if you’re using Bluetooth to connect to your PC. Connect your controller using Xbox Wireless, or plug the included USB-C cable into the back of the Xbox Elite Wireless
      Controller Series 2 and plug the other end into your PC. For more info, see
      How to connect an Xbox One Wireless Controller to a Windows PC
      .

    I hope this helps!
