Windows 10: Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 (Xbox Acc)

Hey everyone I've been reading up on this for the past two hours and have zero luck. I feel like I have a special kind of case this time though. I have done what others suggested and used my hardware id on the Microsoft drivers catalog and used mine to change the "Xbox ACC" into the properly identified device. However now I get a yellow ! and the message that it won't start because it knows it'll cause windows problems (Code 48). Now with this issue there's a lot less info, and on top of that it doesn't seem like I'm able to uninstall the drivers or install any of the ones from the catalog over it to fix it. Has anyone run into code 48 with the adapter and been able to fix it? I found one Microsoft forum post but they ended up doing a bios update, which doesn't seem like it'll work for me as I'm still on an old z87.

Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 is not working anymore (NOT Xbox ACC Issue)

Hey everyone,

I feel like I'm going mad... This may be the last thing I post before my head explodes...

Anyway, my Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10 stopped working after a damned Windows 10 Update happened around Christmas. It was working fine and I could connect both my controller and Xbox headset to my PC using this adapter without any issues. I'll give
more details below.

• It is recognized by my laptop as "Xbox Wireless Adapter"(so it's not the Xbox ACC issue), the light flashes, but I can't pair it with any Xbox controller and headset, even though it worked perfectly when I got it, and it still works on other devices I have,
  so it's definitely not a hardware issue.
• I have searched for the issue online extensively and tried all of the fixes from these forums and others.
• Things I've tried:
  • Restarting and plugging into different USB port
  • Manually updating the drivers. Tried various driver versions from the Microsoft Update Catalog
  • Unistalling the drivers and letting them reinstall automatically
  • Fiddling with Wake/Sleep options of the Xbox Wireless Adapter
  • Updating Controller firmware

After a bit more research, it seems like one of the security updates from Windows 10 has broken these wireless adapters for a lot of people. I just need help understanding which security patch I need to uninstall in order for my Xbox Wireless Adapter to
work again.

I am running Windows 10 Home(Build 1803) and the license is OEM, running on a Dell G5 laptop.

P.S. I know this topic has been discussed before, but none of the fixes work for me, so that's why I've posted a new one.

 

Xbox Wireless Adapter Won't Connect to Controller, Not A Xbox ACC issue.

• It is recognized my desktop "Xbox Wireless Adapter"(so it's not the Xbox ACC issue), the light flashes, but I can't pair it with any Xbox controller and even though it worked perfectly 5 days ago and it still works on other devices I have, so it's definitely
  not a hardware issue.

I'm short of just reinstalling windows but I don't really want to go that route if possible. It seems to be linked to a windows update. I'd also like to state that this was originally written by another community member with the same issue and their thread
is locked. I'm experiencing the exact same issues and have tried the same processes with no results.
