    I have a Dell gaming laptop with Bluetooth capability. Sometimes I disconnect my wireless Xbox one controller from the laptop's Bluetooth so I can use the controller on my Xbox one, but when want to reconnect it to my laptop, I have to remove the controller from my paired devices list and then pair the controller backup to the laptop.

    Pairing controllers wirelessly.

    Hi,



    It's possible that you're not able to pair your controller due to incompatibility with the Bluetooth adapter. We'd like to learn more about your concern so we could provide the proper resolution. We just have a few questions
    for you:


    • Just to confirm, did your Bluetooth adapter come with the controller when you bought it?

    • Have you checked the manufacturer's website for additional software needed to use the controller in Windows 10, since this controller is specifically built for a game console?

    • Were you able to install the Bluetooth drivers through the CD without any problems?

    • Are you able to connect other Bluetooth devices to your computer through the Bluetooth adapter?

    • Whenever you try to pair the controller, do you get an error message? If yes, please post a screenshot.

    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
