Windows 10: Xbox 360 Wireless Adapter

Discovered a little while ago that my wireless xbox 360 controller + headset has crackling / potato quality audio. Microphone works fine as does the controller. It did not used to be like this. After some investigation it appears update 2004 broke something. Anyway to fix?

It appears others had problems with clone devices but I believe my issue is slightly different. It feels like i'm running a beta OS sometimes... Thanks for the help.

Xbox 360 controller wont sync with Wireless adapter for windows 10

My Xbox 360 controller wont sync with the Wireless adapter for windows 10.

I have bought just bought the Wireless adapter for windows 10 because to connect my 360 controller to my PC.

On the microsoft website itself it says it works for "Any" Xbox wireless controller (Xbox draadloze adapter voor Windows 10 | Xbox)

But for some reason it wont sync with mine.

Windows 10 is up to date, uninstalled and reinstalled the receiver 2 times already.

Is there a step that i am missing or doesnt this receiver wont work for all the wireless xbox controllers?
