Xbox One wireless controller Win10 ISSUE? (with cheap bluetooth dongle)

[Kranolf]

Hey guys!

 

So I have this xbox one controller for a while, and been using it with a cheap ebay bluetooth dongle which I put inside my PC case. I realised the controller is not working as it should: sometimes it does not connect, sometimes it just stops working, sometimes several buttons don't work only when I press them multiple times. I even tried it with an USB, less issues but they are still present.

 

I was wondering, if I would buy an xbox one controller adapter for PC, would that solve all my problems, or it's the controller's fault?

 

I really need some help, thank you!

 

P.S.: I did update the controller's firmware, via xbox accessories windows app.

Have a computer with a different bluetooth adapter to test?

Seeing how you still have problems with it plugged in directly I might try reinstalling the drivers for it

 

Otherwise, sounds like the controller

Damn...I was really hoping it's not the controller. How can I make sure though?

 

Also how can I reinstall drivers?
