Trouble connecting my xbox one controller to my pc (wirelessly)

qboIodp

The past few days I am having trouble keeping connection between the controller and the pc and I have no Idea why is this happening...

I'm not using the microsoft adapter to connect it, I just use the integrated bt at the mobo. This pc is new and about 10 days ago I had no trouble connecting it but now it's just impossible to connect it.

What I mean by that is that the pc is recognizing it at the time I turn the controller when it's not even on "search" mode. After I press the button for the controller to be seen it just dissapears from the recognisable devices at my pc. Again, I was not having any kind of problems for about a year or two at this time, now it just won't connect.

I had a similar issue with my Series X controller. It would just disconnect the Bluetooth constantly, and oddly only in certain games. Others would be just fine. I searched to no avail for a solution, and eventually just broke down and bought the wireless adapter. It's not that expensive, honestly, and it makes a world of difference. Flawless connection 100% of the time.

I also had this issue I guess it's windows being shit, you should be able to sync via the USB cable tho

Reminder⚠️

I'm just speaking from experience so what I say may not work 100%

Please try searching up the answer before you post here but I am always glad to help

yeah same thought, used to have one but it eventualy broke and for those years I was stuck with a small radious connection for games and it sucked.
