    Xbox one controller not connecting to Xbox Wireless Adapter for win10


    Hello,

    So, I have an odd situation. My Xbox one controller won't connect wirelessly to the adapter, but I can connect wired to my PC. It worked wirelessly for months, then suddenly stopped working. I have done all the troubleshooting suggestions from the Microsoft
    troubleshooting guide for the Xbox one controller and the Xbox wireless adapter; issue still stands. I connected the adapter to a laptop and the controller connects wirelessly, so there doesn't seem to be an issue with the devices themselves; just something
    on my PC causing the issue. Any suggestions on why this issue is occurring on my PC but works perfectly fine on the laptop.

    :)

    Xbox one controller with Win10Pro

    As far as I know, you can´t connect the controller to the pc directly via Bluetooth. The only way you can connect it to your pc is buying a wireless adapter which is sold with some controllers. Here
    is the page of the product

    My controller keeps disconnecting mid game

    Is this an Xbox One controller, or an Xbox 360 controller? If it's an Xbox One controller, are you connecting wirelessly to the PC via Bluetooth, or with the Xbox Wireless Adapter?

    Bluetooth controllers

    After extensive testing with a new Xbox One controller I recently purchased (This model:

    www.xbox.com/.../lunar-white-wireless-controller
    ), it seems that I was not able to connect. The Microsoft Support page (

    support.xbox.com/.../connect-xbox-one-controller-to-pc
    ) explains with images down the page that certain Xbox controllers have Bluetooth support while others do not. While my controllers does match the one with Support in the image, I have figured that
    only the new Xbox One S controllers have Bluetooth support (Listed in description:

    www.xbox.com/.../xbox-wireless-controller
    ), despite the image shown. The best way to connect non-Bluetooth controllers is to use the Windows wireless adapter (

    www.xbox.com/.../windows-wireless-adapter
    ) the adapter has benefits over Bluetooth, like being able to use your headsets, or connect multiple controllers, while connection through Bluetooth only allows for one controller at a time.

    Xbox controllers for windows 10

    You confused me when you said WI-FI. As WI-FI is usually in reference to a wireless connection to your modem suppling an internet connection to a given device. Not a short way of saying wireless. But yes, there are 3 options, Wired, Bluetooth, and wireless.

    Any wireless Xbox One controller will pair with the
    Wireless adapter
    .

    I use the Xbox One Elite controller on my Xbox One X, and I can not go back to a standard controller for most games.
