- Today we are going to take a look on how to connect an XBOX One controller to a Windows 10 PC wirelessly via Bluetooth. For this to properly work you will need Windows 10, a Bluetooth adapter or integrated Bluetooth with Bluetooth 4.0 or higher and a second generation Xbox One controller. If your controller is a first generation one you can use the official Microsoft adapter to connect it to your PC.
Official Microsoft adapter:

When you connect your X1 (Xbox One) controller to your PC via Bluetooth make sure you DO NOT use a charging cable to hook it up as you would on an X1 console. Doing so will corrupt your Bluetooth connection on your X1 controller. Your Bluetooth settings will say your controller is still paired and connected but it's really not and you wont be able to reconnect it for there is no option for that.
Here's how you can fix this problem:
1. Unpair your controller on your Bluetooth settings.
2. Restart your computer. (Make sure your X1 controller is off)
3. Pair your X1 controller again wirelessly by holding down the Xbox button until it blinks slowly, then hold down the tiny button on the top of the controller next to the LB button until the Xbox light blinks rapidly.
4. Click on "Add Bluetooth or other Devices" and scan for "Bluetooth". Do not choose "Everything Else" for that only applies to certain X1 controller devices. If your device shows up click on it and if your Xbox light becomes solid then you're all set!
5. If your battery is low DO NOT hook it up to your PC or your X1 console for the console will reset the controller and autopair it with the console instead and the PC will just corrupt the connection. Use a wall outlet, power bank or replace fresh batteries if they are not charagable.
As for X360 controllers You HAVE to connect a cable to your pc for it's not compatible for your PC. Unless you have a wireless adapter.

You sir deserve a medal of honor.
@SuperPaul2006 I'm going through it now. I was curious enough that I connected my wireless Xbox controller to my pc using a random USB cable and since then, I can't connect via Bluetooth. The controller works only when using that same cable. I did what you said here but it didn't work for me. After restarting my pc, I would hold the xbox button for so long. It blinks, but only when I keep holding the button. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME!
@@lemichaelcubero3577 Delete the controller from the Bluetooth profiles on your PC (if it is still there) THEN next time you try connecting by holding down the xbox button also press the small bluetooth button at the very top of the controller that everyone forgets is there. Bam. You are connected. See, you learned something from a school district today.
Can you make a video on this please I’m not very good at technology stuff so I could not find the “add BlueTooth or other devices” thing. please make a video to help me
Tutorial starts at 3:10
Thanks
thx

not all heroes wear capes
Thank fuck, I dnt need to know an xbox controller is made of plastic
Don't waste 35 seconds at the start please. The best guides are short accurate and understandable .( Btw it's a great video thanks!)
@Lz _Playz buddy chill, its just critique. It wasn't even directed to you, so stop being a snowflake.
@@cirqule8877 bruh what did he even say
Thank u I was think the same thing just get to the damn point lol
@@dayzplayer8539 it's 35 seconds and your just about too play some games anyway so 35seconds isn't that bad.
I agree and then didn't tell us the right option
Thank you for clarifying the difference between generations of controls this helped a lot
This was so helpful I wanted to play fall guys with a controller and now I can thank you 😁
Thanks bro. For the longest time I didn't even think I could connect wirelessly lol I'm so dumb.
It took me awhile too. You aren’t the only one ☺️
Very nice video, mate! Do you know if it's possible to connect two xbox controllers using this dongle? Or the bt 4.0 will not support this?
OMG I SHOULD HAVE FIND THIS VIDEO FROM THE START, I TOOK THE ARTICLES FROM PCMAG/GAMESRADAR AS ADVICE BUT THOSE SH*TS WEREN'T AS CLEAR AS THIS VIDEO. YOU'RE A LIFESAVER MAN. I WISH YOU ALL THE BEST!!
I can’t stress this enough, thank you
@Remedy Rex
Huh

Tutorial starts at 3:10 This helped a lot tho thank you 👌🏽
I was trying to figure this out for forever, and your video was the only one that helped. Every other source was telling me to use 'everything else' when it turns out 'bluetooth' was what I needed.
Omg dude you saved me 80$ I was gonna buy another controller with the dongle because they sell them separately and I also bought a cheap knockoff wired controller for nothing.
And my motherboard had Bluetooth 5.1 all along 🤣
Thank you man you're a life saver!
Thank you very much! Everything I needed and not a second too long:D
Thank you for explaining everything so completely! The problem I was having was in the details that most others gloss over! You saved me from buying a whole new controller unnecessarily!! I’ve subscribed, and you’re my first and best option for tech help now!! Thanks for doing what you do!!
Thank you so much I’ve tried many videos and they didn’t work, but I found this one and it work perfectly
Thank you for helping me I was stuck you should make more of these vids !
It's always best to be concise and to the point.
thanks you're awesome
Edit: thanks for the like because of you I'm able to play Borderlands 3 with the controller and not keyboard and mouse
Thank you so much I kept looking for a wire to try and plug into my controller and into my pc but none of them fit. I had no idea that you could use it wirelessly thank you.
Hi. I have a doubt: for the second gen joystick it is not necessary to have the original xbox proprietary adapter; with any third party bluetooth adapter (4.0 or higher) would work, right?? But the 1st gen joystick needs obligatory the original xbox bluetooth adapter, wright?? Thanks
Thanks a lot. Found this video after 2 hours of trying to connect the xbox controller using the "add everything else" instead of the first option.
Ur comment just saved me

Thank you SOOOO MUCH:) Love from Norway
i like this guy coz he gets to the point asap unlike other who keep talking random things..thankyou so much for the tip
Thank you so much I broke the charging bit of my controller so it won’t plug it but now I can still use it thank you so much
had to rewatch it a few times because I'm dumb but thank you for the tutorial!

@@pickleeggs3340 no but I do hope you get to a better place for yourself. Have a good life!
Thank you so much kept trying everything else, but turns out it wasn't and it was actually Bluetooth not everything else.
Thanks I was trying to figure this out for about half an hour
Thanks for the tutorial. Just wanted to know how do I use my earphones by connecting it to the controller's headphone jack? When I do it on pc it does not give audio to my earphones like when connected to xbox. I have an xbox one s bluetooth controller btw.
What is the name of that song that you used for your intro? I’ve been trying to find it for a while

It’s so stupid how my elite controller doesn’t have Bluetooth it was $150
I got an elite controller myself and I think it's a waste of money to be honest the rubber grips are coming off an the sticks rubber are all busted up.
What series is it?
It shouldn't have Bluetooth. It's got so much components cramped inside that thing there's no room for Bluetooth.
Sean Carrier there’s no space for it.. I mean, unless you wanna spend $200
It can be connected !(Elit controller)
I have an Xbox 360 slim controller and it has the pair button option but it doesn't show up on list of devices on my pc, would I need a wireless receiver?
Does this work for unofficial/ off brand controller? only because i need an xbox controller but the official one are so expensive
I have a question - once I sync my controller and it's connected, everything works great. However, when I won't play for a longer time period, it will turn off and after I turn it on again and try to connect it to the BT, it won't. I have to erase it from the list of devices, then re-sync it. It's not really something I can't live with, I just wanted to know if you knew the solution to my problem? Thanks man
Following. I'm having the same problem
As far as I experienced in the past, you need to update the firmware of the controller and windows. To update the controller plug it in wired and access the Xbox accessories application. In the application you can update the controller firmware.
THIS HELPED SO MUCH! THANK YOU!
Thank you very much. I've been using the last option and it didn't work for me. Thank you very much for this informative video.
2021 and it helped better than any one I have seen, thanks alot!
Thanks, this helped.
Finally someone with correct grammar
@@therealfatsuuuuu8696Ha! There is no grammatically correct way of responding to this.
@@GerLeahy lol
When i choose the everything else option, it just loads and loads, eventually never connecting...
You need to choose Bluetooth if you use BT. You choose Everything else only if you are using the Microsoft adapter.
MashieGamie I have Same probleme
HowToIT i do that but it still doesnt connect
HowToIT still doesn’t wanna work ree
Instead of going to "Everything Else", go to "Bluetooth".
Thank you man, I don't even know this back button do :D
Thank you, now it helps me when while I was streaming playing Fortnite or either games I haven't try but I try Minecraft
Part most people want is at 3:30
Also if you have builtin bluetooth just hit the top option of adding a buletooth device works just fine.
THANK YOU. I've been selecting "everything else" this whole time and it would never show up. So glad I didn't have to buy some dongle or adapter.
am i have to do these steps every time when i turn my pc on or only once ?
In theory, only once. And when you go to settings and turn on Bluetooth, once you turn on your controller as well it should connect automatically. It does like this on my laptop, I don't have to pair it again, but on an older version of Windows 10 I had to pair it after every boot.
Thank you! The latest controllers now automatically show as Xbox Controller when first-time pairing.
Thanks for making this video. It's very informative!! :)
I connect My Controller with PC. in the controller properties, looks everything good, game also showing controller but I cant use it? still the keyboard is active. how Can use use this controller?
Same issue did u figured it out
Same issue
my dongle is 4.0, my controller is newer, Y bought in the last week in BEST BUY..
but appears "check the PIN and tru connecting AGAIN"
Try updating drivers in Device manager, or download the latest driver from the manufacturer's website of the dongle. If there isn't one try finding what type your dongle is, they are mostly made by Chinese companies and sold under many different names. What you want to know is what type of Bluetooth module/chip it has and download the driver. Also, I have been told in the past that the last 4 digits of the serial number of your controller or dongle might work as a PIN code.
Can you connect to your phone with both your PC and controller? That can give you information about what's wrong.
@@howtoit3291 hello thanks for the support. I managed to connect the Xbox one controller to a notebook with integrated Bluetooth. I was also able to connect my cell phone to the 4.0 dongle, and I was also able to connect the controller to my cell phone. I formatted the computer and I still can't connect the Xbox controller with the dongle. yesterday I bought a new adapter but it will only arrive on Monday. My dongle is Cambridge CSR. LMP 6.0 I didn't find drivers for windows10. and I also can't enter the PIN because there is no box to enter the text... Only try connect again or check the PIN some times the error change.. tks against HOWToIT. My mother board is Asus b250F strix
@@pedrohenriquez5605 bro did u manage to make it work please ?
@@Suuuu I bought another dongle bro...
@@pedrohenriquez5605 a normal 4.0 bluetooth dongle or Microsoft dongle ??

🤣😂🤣😂🤣
For real
Lmao

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I did everything you said and it worked perfectly but when I started a game it didn't work at all :(
Jotaro Kujo it doesnt working all game (sorry,im Hungary)
Check your game compability with your controller or try using 3rd party software(i recommend using joytokey)
Nice but how can i make the voice mic work tho cause it doesn't work when i plug in headphones when its connected via bluetooth
So my xbox one controller is a gen 2 or whatever you had said and it won't say anything other then couldnt connect but I can have like my mouse plugged into my laptop and itll work so I know the bluetooth is on any advice?
When I do it sometimes it just says paired and it doesn't actually connect
Same
@@shyfull1804 check pinned message
mine doesnt have the bluetooth where i switch it on and off
It must mean that you either don't have Bluetooth or your adapter is not recognized by Windows, which must mean it doesn't have it's drivers installed.
Same problem, if I get it correctly I must have Bluetooth 4.0 adapter + Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 right? or Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 just enough?
@@howtoit3291 i have the same problem but my pc cant detect my controller but is able to detect my printer
Don't forget, you also have to make sure you have a more recent generation controller. The generations that are equipped with Bluetooth capabilities have a flat, downward ramp-like surface to the Xbox button. If your controller has a sharp edge around the Xbox button, you do not have access to Bluetooth.
but that's all I got...
Buy a 4.0 Bluetooth adapter
This bluetooth csr 4.0 stable to play wireless ? Because i use antenna for my mainboard to use Bluetooth, but when i connect Xbox one S controller, my game just drop fps until i use cable to play :(.
But When You Play The Game Does It Show As XBOX Controller Order or In Keyboard Order
Go to "bluetooth & other devices" click "Add bluetooth or other device", then click the first option. Hold down the Xbox and Sync button on your controller and select it once it pops up on your PC
OMG THANK YOU
ngl his rambling was kinda useless
@@Salvation8o8 Np! Glad to help. And yeah lol, no reason why this vid should be 6 mins long
Thank you for this. I was getting so confused as to why the way he showed wasn't working.
thanks. he was taking so fkn long to get to the point
you know when I clicked on the video I thought I was listening to Smike
Damn haven’t heard from him for a fat minute
So the official xbox usb is optional and i can get one just from amazon right
can I use a bluetooth speaker and the controller at the same time?
how many controllers can I connect at the same time?
Why on my pc I just pressed the Xbox 1 button on the controller and it automatically connected to my pc I dident have to do all these steps
u probably connected it before
when i try it doesn’t give me an option to turn on bluetooth
You probably need to update your pc so check
This is amazing I’ve been trying to figure this out for hours!!! Your blessed!!!
THANK YOU , happy new year !
All I had to do was go to settings, Bluetooth devices, add new, and press on my controller; after I held the pair button
Than why are you here?
@@flipflop356 tbh
@3:33 don’t go to shit else just click Bluetooth. I almost took my controller back cause I thought It wasn’t compatible. Just click Bluetooth if this way isn’t working.
Umm are you dumb he says in the video four times if have the first gen controller or the official Microsoft dongle you can click on everything else
Games And Hacks bro it worked for me lmao
Lobe u
Games And Hacks it works either way
you are the fucking man
so basically i have two controllers and an xbox that i share. if i use one controller and someone is using the other controller on the xbox will the controller im using affect the gameplay of the other controller?
u made it man
u just created a 10sec video into a 6min video
gg man
I cannot see the "Bluetooth" switch! HELPP!
you probably dont have blue tooth then
Update your windows 10
I have a small dongle🤦🏽♂️
in your pants
Very useful video. Works as of February 2021 as well. Thanks.
Great video. Just recently got a new motherboard that has BT 5.0 so I thought I would give this a go
Well this DOESNT work on elite controllers. Just a FYI for anyone trying this.
Not even the elite 2?
The elite 2 will work, but the first gen doesn't.
Silly me, I was trying to connect the old xbox controller.
Silly me I was try to connect a Wii Remote
I have the 1st version controller , can I still connect through my pc without the adapter?
this was very useful i was on the wrong blue tooth conection for way too long, thank you
"Hey Boomers, this is how you check if you're running Windows 10."
OK SO HOW TF DO YOU CONNECT THE FIRST VERSION THAT'S ALL I HAVE
Fr tho I wanna know if I can connect the first version wirelessly or if it requires a cable
You need to buy the official Microsoft wirless adapter or connect it with a microB cable to use it wired. In wired mode it's plug and play, no setup needed. You need to wait a couple of minutes after the first connection for it to automatically configure.
So you have to have the second version of the controller to pair it to your pc?
Love this video wish I knew this soon cuz a nice USB Bluetooth cost less than the Xbox 1 adapter
This video could have been two minutes.
Stephen McCoy ya
Last time it was closer to two minutes and a lot of information was missing. As a result I got a lot of comments asking for help and decided to remake the video to have all the information needed.
your comment could tell me when to start the video, you're useless.
Sniza The time you spent browsing through the comments you could’ve been done with the video as well you have no right to be a Twatt waffle towards this guy another words fuck yourself
If I'm useless go watch another video.
Who’s here for fall guys?

Same
Me :/
lmao same

Is there a way to not activate your xbox360 when u activate your controller ? Cause i dont want my console to burn up so i gotta close it, but if i close it my controller disactivates as well.
Thank you very much. Quick question, if I connect the controller, will it work on steam games?
It depends on wether the game supports controllers or not. Not all games do. On Steam, you can find on the right side information on controller support.
You take 6 minutes to say something that can be said in 30 seconds it is extremely infuriating
Thanks so much man I was struggling
it seems your video got cut at 5:00, I need to know if I'll be getting problems while reconnecting this controller
so can i use a xbox one X controller for my gaming pc to play steam games ?
Thanks bro, I was baffled for a hot min
if i have bluetooth 5.0 it works better or what is the difference?
I just ordered a m.2 wifi card with 5.1 Bluetooth, would I be ok?
Is there a way to make standard wired headphones work with controller connected via bluetooth? It does work with standard usb route, google doesn't seem to bring answers...
