    Xbox One Controller on PC not being recognized?


    Hi guys,

    my old 360 controller broke so I connected my Xbox One Controller via USB cable to my pc.

    Sadly my pc doesn't recognize that the controller has been connected. The USB cable definitely works fine for It charges the batteries.

    I use Windows 10 with the newest update.

    Any suggestions what to do?

    Cheers.

    :)

    Problem Adaptator xbox one for pc

    On your Windows 10 PC, I would recommend opening Device Manager and check that the adapter is being recognized properly on the PC and there are no issues listed with that device.

    I would also recommend trying to connect the controller up via a USB cable and see if the controller is recognized that way.

    And before that, I would ask that this is a Xbox One controller, or is this an Xbox 360 controller that you're trying to use?

    Problema de Conectividad Control Elite Xbox (Connectivity Problem Control Elite Xbox)

    Hello again Rodrigo,

    Have you by any chance attempted to connect the controller directly to the PC through a wired connection?

    As well, you have mentioned that the controller that came with the Xbox One console is recognized on the PC, but that the elite controller is not recognized at all on the PC. This same elite controller, does it have any issues with connecting to the Xbox
    One console?

    Clarify this information and we'll await your reply.

    Best wishes!
