    Xbox wireless controller can't connect to PC


    I've had my Xbox wireless controller for more than a year. I used it yesterday and it worked perfectly. Today I can't connect it to my PC. When I press the Xbox button on it, the light just flash, and on my PC, in the bluetooth device section, it just said
    "paired" instead of "connected".The controller worked fine when connected with USB and my other bluetooth device worked just fine.

    I tried to remove the controller, but every time I do that, ans try to reconnect the controller, it won't show up in my bluetooth device list. And after restart the controller will come back as if I haven't removed it with the status being "paired". I made
    sure the controller's firmware and my PC are all up to date. Could someone help me figure out hoe to fix this issue? Thanks!!!!!

    :)

    Controller xbox360 per pc

    Hi,

    Unfortunately unlike the Xbox One controllers, the wireless Xbox 360 controllers remain wireless regardless of whether you connect them to a PC with a Play and Charge. You can't make an Xbox 360 wireless controller a wired controller.

    If you want to use your 360 wireless controller on a PC you'll need to buy an Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver for Windows.

    xbox 360 controller not working on PC

    Is the controller a wireless controller or wired? If it is wireless, how are you connecting it? If by using the play & charge kit, then the Xbox 360 controller will not work, as the cable is only recognized on PC for charging only. You need to use a Xbox
    360 Wireless adapter for PC to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to your PC.
