Xbox One controller not connecting to Windows 10 PC

AddKerluck · Aug 1, 2019

Help! My Xbox One controller isn't connecting to my PC. I'm on Windows 10 and have tried wireless and via USB. None of which work. It worked before (about 3 months ago) but now whenever I plug it in, it vibrates, the light flashes a couple time but it never
connects.

- I've tried with multiple different remotes

- I've tried different cords

- I've restarted my computer

- I've updated my computer

- I've updated my firmware

I've done anything I can think to do and it's still not working. Please let me know if you think you have a solution.

Hello MildSuperset412,

I need to ask, have you been able to follow up with "How to connect an Xbox One Wireless Controller to a Windows PC" , and does the
controller work when it is connected to your PC through the USB port? Also, if you haven't already done so, may I suggest double checking "How
to update your Xbox One Controller on Windows 10" .
