Windows 10: Xbox Controller not connecting to PC with Play and Charge kit

This issue has been frustrating me for days and i do not know what the problem is.

My controller keeps blinking even though it is connected using the play and charge kit. It doesnt appear in Device Manager either.

Any help appreciated
