  1. Wireless controller Connects after being paired but does not stay connected to pc


    I have been working for 3 days now on getting this Scorpion GT-64 wireless controller to work via bluetooth connection. I have tried many things from updating drivers, setting automatic on bluetooth services, etc. I am starting to think that either my controller is malfunctioning or i just cannot make it to stay connected. I am using asus bluetooth adapter 5.0.

    Please help me figure it out!

    Can’t connect Xbox one controller to pc

    Hello SubieTY,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Initially, we need to pair the device to show up in the list while connected through Bluetooth. Check with the below mentioned steps and see if it works.


    Hope it helps.

  3. Xbox Elite Controller 2 - not connecting after paired

    Hi,

    my expectation is that when turning the Xbox Elite Controller 2 on it will automatically connect to the PC over Bluetooth (if already paired), however, it doesn't work for me. Light on the controller is flashing steadily but it never connects.

    Controller works fine over USB. It's displayed as "Paired" in Bluetooth & other devices.

    Controller's firmware has been updated over USB using Xbox Accessories application.

    What have I tried already:

    1. Ensuring my Bluetooth adapter is working fine by connecting wireless headphones - it's OK. I also moved the adapter to the front of the chassie.
    2. Restarting PC, controller, Bluetooth services (and changing them to automatic), turning Bluetooth off & on before and during controller sync.
    3. Uninstalling Bluetooth drivers, updating them via Windows, downloading new drivers from my MOBO (AsRock Z390 Pro4) manufacturer.
    4. Removing the controller from Bluetooth devices and trying to pair it again - controller is visible either as "Input" or as "Xbox Elite Wireless Controller" however it takes a lot of tries to connect it as the device is not responding (controller light is
      flashing rapidly as it should in sync mode).

    After successful pairing I observed the controller sometimes stays connected and works fine over Bluetooth and sometimes it just switches back to the "turn on mode" (light flashing steadily), which brings me to the beginning of this problem - controller
    is paired but does not connect to PC.

    I've read a lot of topics where people have a problem with connecting their controllers to the PC in the first place, however this is not my problem and solutions presented in these topics proved ineffective in resolving my situation.

    Thank you for your help.

    2. Select Device manager.

    4. Select Show hidden devices.
    5. Expand Universal Serial Bus and remove all the greyed out devices. To remove the greyed out devices, right click on the device and select
      uninstall.
    6. Restart your computer.


    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
