  1. XBOX Wireless adapter for windows


    Hello,

    I am not sure if this is the right place to write my issues because it is for the xbox one controller and the wireless adapter for windows. Anyway I will explain my problems hoping to find a solution.

    Before buying this wireless adapter I used my gamepad connected by bluetooth to my pc and I didn't have any kind of problems playing any game. I bought an original wireless adapter in order to have the possibility to use the voice chat while gaming when connecting a headset through the gamepad. The firmware on the controller is 5.9.2709.0 version, it does not give me any newer updates when I use the xbox accessories app.

    The problems starts from the beginning when I connect the wireless adapter to my pc.

    I share with you my info file of my system : https://1drv.ms/u/s!AphPGjBDsDLNr3hrNcfWefX1L_2H?e=aoNlSD

    The pc didn't recognize the wireless adapter and it has been gone under device manager into other devices as XBOX ACC. I try everything in order to be recognized following all the steps shown in https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...rmation window, check,on, plug in the adapter.

    but it didn't help. Afterwards I start to read many threads on many forums and I followed a proposed solution to go on microsoft update catalog and download the microsoft driver update for xbox wireless adapter for windows version 18.31.1.43 and try to install it using the DISM command. So I opened the command prompt as administrator and i have written the command dism /online /add-package /packagepath:"file.cab" where file was the name of the downloaded cab file. It returns to me the error "The system cannot find the file specified" ( 0x80070002)....So I started to download other alternative cab files (other versions) from windows update catalog and try the dism command....no way, every times the same error. So it seems that the dism command does not work anymore with the new windows updates, could you confirm me that?

    Anyway I try to extract the content of version 18.31.1.43 with zip software and install the driver from the inf file (right button of the mouse on it and clicked install), after deleting all previous automatic drivers installed and with the toggled wireless adapter from the pc. Afterwards I put the usb adapter into the pc and again the same problem. The system cannot find any driver and the wireless adapter didn't work and put it as XBOX ACC under other devices.

    Finally after a lot of tries I found this youtube video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HBeMry0MmKE

    It is not any official solution, but I download the drivers from this youtube post and I follow the solution proposal of this guy. At least I succeeded to install the wireless adaptor on my pc.

    Well, I connected the xbox one gamepad to the wireless adaptor following the official guide (without disconnecting the bluetooth). My first question is : now the gamepad is connected both on bluetooth and the wireless adapter? Or automatically when it connects to the usb dongle it disconnects automatically from the pc bluetooth? Please clarify me first this. Is it better to cancel from the pc the previous bluetooth connection and leave only the new connection with the adapter?

    Anyway I start to play to my favorite game in this period and it is read dead online. It starts using the steam interface (big picture). When game starts, on the screen it shows the popup with xbox gamepad configuration loaded - profile loaded or something similar, I do not remember the right words of the message now, but it is the standard one. So I start to play the game. During the online gaming sessions, the xbox button frequently starts to blinking and lose the connection. Everytime it reconnects, it appears the steam popup that the xbox gamepad configuration was loaded and connected as before. The problem is that it takes 4-5 seconds to reconnect while the game is continuing. I didn't have this problem with bluetooth with any games.

    So again it could be also a driver problems, I do not know, but I do not use this one provided from official sources, so I do not know.

    I try other games : dragon ball Z fighter, mortal kombat 11 and killer instinct through the steam interface and I didn't have any connection issue.

    I try also watch dogs legion using the epic launcher, again it worked without issue.

    I try another rockstar games and it was GTA 5 Online, but it has been bought through the epic launcher, so it does not use steam. Very rarely the screen freezes for a couple of seconds like to put on pause, and then the game continues again....I didn't see the xbox button to blink, honestly speaking. But it never happens this while using the bluetooth connection.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.
