    Xbox One controller doesn't work properly wirelessly


    I bought an Xbox One controller for my PC, but the controller works well only with wired connection. When I connect it wirelessly via Bluetooth, the buttons are pressed or the sticks move on their own when I try to play games. I've also downloaded Xbox Accessories
    and updated the controller with the latest firmware, but it's still the same. I've also downloaded the latest updates for windows. How can I make the wireless connection work properly like the wired?

    :)

    There is nothing wrong with the controller connecting to Bluetooth. It's just that when you connect it to Bluetooth, the buttons don't work properly, things move by themselves in the game menus for example.

    Can't get through first time setup. Nothing on this site mentions my problem -can't find help!

    Seriously? I thought the X-Box One was a true wireless device? I update and download all kinds of stuff wirelessly on multiple computers in the house with no problems. If this console does not work 100% wirelessly (as it was sold to us), then I don't even
    want it!

    If it's as you say, that the Xbox One really doesn't work properly wirelessly, I am just going to return it. Can you please confirm that this is the case?

    Xbox Play and charge kit says its charged in Windows but disconnects after a few seconds

    You don't seem to have understood my problem.

    It works fine with the cable but it doesn't work wirelessly. The controller disconnects when trying to connect it wirelessly with the play and charge kit battery. Wireless with AA batteries is fine, Wired with the charge kit is fine. Wireless
    with the play and charge kit battery doesn't work.

    I have the wireless adapter and I am trying to connect it wirelessly to my Xbox controller with the play and charge kit battery, that
    is my problem.

    XBox Elite Series 2 controller no "action" settings

    No it doesn't.

    Actually I am very sad about my VERY expensive purchase and Microsoft ignoring the issues:

    - Controller connected via BT: Installs a generic driver (that cannot be changed, I tried), "accessories" app recognizes the device properly, BUT doesn't allow any customization (they even say so, but don't explain why). Although controller buttons seem to be identified properly, within games they are mixed up.

    - Controller connected via USB cable: Only way to properly detect the device and "accessories" app to allow customization, BUT it is cable, when I purchased a WIRELESS controller.

    - Bought an XBox wireless stick thinking I could use it to finally properly use my XBox controller wirelessly and the stick doesn't even get a working driver in Win 11.

    (this is a different issue than the one in this thread though)

    This sucks.

    EDIT: The wireless adapter (series 2), does work on my second Win 11 PC. This is very weird. In the first PC I could only force it to manually use 2015 drivers. In my second PC (same Windows versions and updates) it automatically worked with 2022 drivers.

    BACK to the topic: Even with the wireless adapter, I do NOT get no ACTION settings. I can only assign controller buttons around. Nothing else.

    This is serious.

    Especially for such an expensive device!
