Windows 10: By creating an Xbox account within Windows 10 does this mean you have an XBOX device?

By creating an Xbox account within Windows 10 does this mean you have an XBOX device? so does this also mean that your Microsoft account gets updated to acknowledge that you have an XBOX device or that you have an XBOX Account but no Xbox device?

What if you logged into the XBOX App within Windows 10 and then exited also means you probably created a userid and password and this would mean that you Microsoft account would be updated... what if you then purchase software from the Microsoft Store for an XBOX thinking it would work under the XBOX App in the Windows 10 OS?

I can't sign in to my Xbox account from games

Hi,

We are currently experiencing unanticipated difficulties signing in, creating, managing, and recovering Xbox Live accounts. The following platforms are affected:

• Xbox One
• Xbox on Windows 10
• Xbox 360
• Xbox on other devices

We suggest that you try signing in to your games once the server is up and running. It may take 24 hours. Our Xbox system administrators are working on this.

To keep track of the progress, check out
Xbox Live Status.

Let us know if you have other inquires. We'd be glad to clear things out.

Xbox One controller not working wireless - Device could not be migrated

This thread from Reddit may help you. It appears that the Xbox One controllers can utilize two drivers; Xbox One Controller, and Microsoft Xbox One Controller.

The thread has other troubleshooting steps, but the two main (and most popular/successful steps appear to be as follows)

Method 1

Method 2

Hopefully this helps. If not, there's something else awry, and other troubleshooting may be needed.

EDIT: Per the asker's request;

I'm not sure if this solved it or if it was just a weird side effect of changing the drivers version forward and backward again. When connected via USB cable it said "Xbox controller", changed that to "Xbox gaming device", unplugged the USB cable, and the wireless stuff started to work for whatever reason... No idea why!
