Can't use multiple Xbox controllers

Hi!
I have 2 Xbox controllers that are conected to my PC with wireless adapter. My computer can recognize both of them in Xbox accesories app. The problem is that when i try to play any game that has co-op implemented game won't recognise second controller as separate device rather as the same controller. For example when i go play Fifa i shuld be able to join as second player by pushing an analog right or left to change team. All that happens is i move main player with any controller. In Game Controller Tester I can see both of controllers but when i go to test mode i can use both of them when testing device 1 but neither one of them when testing device 2. This is Windows issue because on my second PC everything works just fine. Problem has started when i reinstalled my system, before everything worked fine. I have newest Windows update installed and all Xbox One controllers are updated. I am curently using new Xbox One PC wireless adapter. Trying USB connection didn't help. I have tried restarting operating system and removing driers in device menager with no result. I was unable to anything that covered this topic.

Unplug both devices, then plug them back in. Go to Device Manager and you should see an Unknown Device pop up under Other Devices. Double tap it and click Update Driver. Choose Browse my computer for driver software, and scroll all the way to the bottom, until you see Xbox 360 Peripherals. Select the Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver and wait for it to install.

He is using a Windows operating system, and syncing controllers via a wireless receiver.

 

This should be in trouble shooting anyway.
