Microsoft Xbox One Wireless Adapter for Windows (Bulk Packaging)

Hello,This is my first Amazon review, I'm not one to usually do this but after going through the abomination of an adventure to find the lost city of Adapter drivers, I found it was only necessary to pass on the knowledge I attained:Step 1:Plug in your wireless adapter. Navigate to Device Manager in Windows, and look for "XBOX ACC."Step 2:If you see "XBOX ACC" (likely with a yellow flag next to it), congratulations, you are experiencing driver issues. Right click it and go down to "Properties." A window will open, then navigate to tab "Details." Under "Property," select Hardware Ids. Two IDs should show up.Step 3:Go to https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=USB%5CVID_045E%26PID_02E6 where we will download the drivers and manually install them onto the device. One of the hardware IDs from Step 2 should have been what you now see in the search box of the Microsoft Update Catalog website (USB\VID_045E&PID_02E6). If not, search for your hardware ID there.Step 4:Download the top driver (should be "Microsoft - Other hardware - Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows"), and extract the downloaded file using any number of zip openers (WinRAR, 7zip, etc.) to a memorable folder.Step 5:Going back to Device Manager, right click "XBOX ACC" and choose "Update Driver." Select "Browse my computer for driver software." Browse for the folder that you extracted the driver to in step 4. Then choose next.Step 6:After successful driver update, unplug and replug the device into your computer. Then hold down the black button on the side, which should now start slowly blinking. Hold down the button on your Xbox One wireless controller for syncing, and the two should link up.Congratulations, you should now have working a perfectly good Microsoft Xbox One Wireless Adapter for Windows that should have been perfectly good from the start, but where's the fun in that.Please see this guide to better assist you in any difficulties you may have:https://www.gamerevolution.com/guides/480709-xbox-acc-driver-unavailable-xbox-wireless-receiver-install-error-fix

I grabbed one of these because you can't use a headset connected to the xbone controller AND have the controller connected to a PC wirelessly via Bluetooth at the same time. Headset just sits there, useless. Seems weird since they're both Microsoft devices but whatevz. Also bluetooth with the xbone controller was kindof a pain in general for me. Connection loss issues, driver issues, device would be paired but decide not to connect at all, on and on.This solved all of those problems instantly. I didn't actually realize how bad it was before until I plugged it in. It's soooo much easier: It. Just. Works. Seriously tho... Plug and play, controller accessories work and I can connect multiple controllers if I want. Controller now connects as soon as I turn it on. I couldn't be more satisfied.Note: I am a little annoyed that I needed this in the first place. Xbox controllers should have full functionality via Bluetooth or not have allowed it at all (considering how badly it works) IMO. I see that as a fault with the controller, however, NOT with this particular device.TLDR; I recommend this if you use an Xbox One controller AT ALL for PC gaming. Unless you're playing shooters- then use wasd and mouse ya noob ;)

I installed the product and received an error message. The message stated that the certificate or license was not valid. The name that it was suppose to be under was Microsoft, but this one had some other name and it was not a tech company. I stopped trying to get it to work because I did not want to damage my computer with a corrupted device.

It works just fine, but Windows 10 does not recognize this device, makes me wonder if it's a knockoff. I had to manually install through some pretty crazy means, thanks to Reddit got it working perfectly, I'm not sure why Windows won't recognize it, so 3 stars because it does work, you just need some technical knowledge of computers, if you're not familiar with computers and the way drivers work and manually installing them, don't bother purchasing this product. None of my 3 perfectly up to date windows 10 PC's could recognize this device.

Spent 3 days fighting with this thing. the controller isn't the issue. This adaper will work for 3 seconds or 3 hours with no idea why or how the adaptter just shuts off. I have adjusted windows settings, steam settings, uninstalled/reinstalled rivers, nad every other "fix" to get it to work and at this point it isn't worth the trouble. I will get a different controller or adapter or something. This just doesn't work at all for me on a fairly new Windows 10 PC. DO A LOT OF RESEARCH BEFORE BUYING THIS. maybe you have some niche of updates and drivers that it will work. seem the majority of newer PCs don't play well with this.

I absolutely love this product. The reason why I got it is because my wireless x box controllers have Bluetooth but Bluetooth cuts out all the time. Very frustrating when your controller gives out on you all the time. I went on the microsoft store and they had them for 30 dollars plus tax but they only support one controller. They were out of stock so I tried amazon. Then I seen one for 60 dollars plus tax and it supports up to 8 controllers. This is a way better deal and I jumped on it. I wasn't disappointed. I have my 2 controllers working on it perfectly. The only gripe I have with this product are the instructions how to setup the controller was totally wrong. I actually figured out how to do it myself without google or youtube so it's not too bad. If you run into trouble setting it up just youtbe it or google it though you'll find out how to do it. Better yet I'll show you go to settings/ devices/ add bluetooth device/ and select select everything else with the adapter plugged in and your controller turned on. Then your wireless controller will pop up and you can install it. Easy as pie.

dopo qualche passaggio sono riuscito a farla funzionare, fortunatamente nelle recensioni un altro utente ha riportato delle istruzioni su come installare i driver nuovi. Qui sotto la riporterò tradotta in italiano per chi ha problemi a comprendere l'inglese ma volesse comprare comunque il prodotto.Step 1:inserisci nel computer il tuo adattatore wireless. Cerca sulla barra di ricerca di windows "Gestione dispositivi" e cercate nella scheda "XBOX ACC".Step 2:Premete il tasto destro del mouse su "XBOX ACC" e aprite le proprietà. andate nella scheda "dettagli" e sotto la scritta "proprietà" selezionate "ID hardware", due ID dovrebbero comparire.Step 3:Copiate il seguente link e apritelo nel browser https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=USB%5CVID_045E%26PID_02E6 dove scaricherete il nuovo driver e lo installerete manualmente sul vostro dispositivo. Uno degli ID che abbiamo trovato nello step 2 dovrebbe comparire nella barra di ricerca del sito in cui siete (solitamente localizzato nella parte in alto a destra del sito) e l'ID dovrebbe corrispondere a questo "USB\VID_045E&PID_02E6". Se esso è diverso inserite l'ID che avete trovato nello step 2 e poi cercatelo nel sito.Step 4:Scaricate il driver più recente presente nella posizione più alta premendo il tasto download sulla destra (dovrebbe essere "Microsoft - Other hardware - Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows), estraete il file scaricato usando qualsiasi zip opener (WinRAR, 7zip, etc) in una cartella sul desktop. (Nota, Se premuto il tasto download questo non farà nulla tranne che aprire una nuova scheda copiate il link che trovate nella scheda appena aperta e inseritelo nella barra di ricerca di google, dopo aver premuto invio dovrebbe iniziarvi il download. Se invece non incontrate questo problema e vi scarica subito il file procedete normalmente con lo step 5.)Step 5:Ritornate nella gestione dispositivi, premete il tasto destro del mouse su "XBOX ACC" e premete "Aggiorna driver". Selezionate "Cerca il software del driver nel computer", selezionate "Sfoglia">"questo pc">"desktop" e infine la cartella che avete creato nello step 4.Step 6:Dopo aver aggiornato i driver, scollegate e ricollegate l'adattatore wireless al vostro computer. Tenete premuto il tasto nero sul lato dell'adattatore wireless che adesso dovrebbe iniziare a lampeggiare. Tenete premuto il tasto sul vostro controller Xbox one per sincronizzarli e dopo che si saranno collegati avrete finito.Spero di essere stato di aiuto e il creatore della guida che ho appena tradotto suggerisce di consultare questa guida nel caso incontraste delle difficoltà. https://www.gamerevolution.com/guides/480709-xbox-acc-driver-unavailable-xbox-wireless-receiver-install-error-fix

Da avere assolutamente se si possiede un controller microsoft.Permette l associazione su pc di controllers Microsoft in maniera semplice e sicura.Peccato per le dimensioni. Non eccessive ma sufficienti, per chi lo dovesse usare su portatili, a rendere difficoltoso l'uso di porte adiacenti. Per tal proposito si consiglia l'uso del cavetto di prolunga che viene fornito in dotazione.

Hab mir einen Xbox Series Controller gekauft und einen Bluetooth Empfänger. Der Controller hat verbunden, nach 30 Sekunden Disconnect. Schrott aus China, dachte ich. Kauf ich mir halt das Original von Microsoft, da hat man weniger Ärger. Kostet halt ein bisschen mehr. Aber, Pustekuchen. Eingesteckt, Windows meldet einen Fehler. Kein Treiber vorhanden. Unglaublich, ein Microsoft eigenes Gerät, und ich muss mir zum ersten mal seit Jahren einen Treibe zusammengoogeln! Ja! Den gibts nicht mal über Windows Update automatisch. Über Umwege durch verschiedene Foren, wo sich Leidensgenossen abreagieren, landet man in irgendeiner MS Hinterhof Website die einen Treiber hat. Jetzt geht das Teil, aber der Controller wird nur als "X-Input Kompatibel" erkannt und nicht als Original XBox Controller. Und ich glaube dass die Rumble Funktion nicht hundertprozentig funktioniert. Ich bin jetzt schwer am überlegen ob ich das Teil zurück schicke und noch einen anderen BT Empfänger teste. Also wer glaubt das ist Orginal Microsoft und funktioniert Plug and Play dem muss ich abraten. Das ging schon zu Windows XP Zeiten besser. Ganz so schlimm wie bei DOS ist es zwar nicht, aber grad von Microsoft hätte ich mir was anderes erwartet.Oder ist das Ding etwa eine Produktfälschung? Irgendwie seltsam kommt mir das schon vor...

En cuanto lo recibi me di cuenta que es el original, solamente que es "bulk" o sea a granel por eso el precio, para los que sufren porque no les detecta el control, yo tengo 2 de 1ra generacion y tampoco los detecto, pero descargue la aplicacion "accesorios de Xbox" en la Microsoft store, conecte mis controladores por cable, le di a los 3 puntitos y actualice el firmware de los controladores, en cuanto termino, cambie los cables por las baterias y el adaptador los detecto al instante, ese es el problema por el cual no los detecta, no hay necesidad de descargar drivers antiguos.
