Xbox Elite Controller wont connect to wireless adaptor(s) on PC

Hello,

There isn't a specific adaptor for the Series X/S controllers for PC. The current adaptor works just fine with these newer controllers, however it is now in very short supply. There are third party ones available that do the same thing.

The Xbox 360 wireless controllers use a different WIFI protocol, they need their own Xbox 360 wireless Gaming Receiver.

Xbox One and Series X/S controllers can be connected to PC via Bluetooth, but headsets will only work with the Xbox One adaptor (or a third party version), they won't work when the controller is connected via BT

Hi,

You can use a standard Bluetooth adaptor. The Microsoft wireless adaptor for Xbox One/Series X|S controllers doesn't use Bluetooth.

If you want standard connectivity then you can use a BT USB dongle (or built in BT if your device has this). The Microsoft adaptor offers more features such as the use of more than one controller, and the usage of your controller's headphone socket while wireless.

Muito obrigado pela resposta! Era exatamente o que eu queria saber.

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Zara, on this PC that is trying to connect the control, can you tell what type of USB port it has, 2.0, 3.0?

You've also tried checking your computer's updates to see if Windows has the latest recommended system and driver updates, this can influence device connectivity.

I'll be waiting for your reply

Hi,

I can't see why not. After all, the Series X and S console support Xbox One controllers. That shows the way these new controllers connect hasn't changed. They should work on PC with the Wireless Adaptor.
