Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows lets Xbox Wireless Controllers connect to a PC on Microsoft's own wireless protocol.
Why use it instead of Bluetooth?
Bluetooth adds latency and drops the controller's headset audio on some PCs. The adapter uses the same Xbox Wireless link as the console, so controllers pair the way they do on an Xbox.
How do you set it up?
Plug the adapter into a USB port, press its pairing button, then hold the controller's pair button until both lights settle. Windows 10 and 11 pick it up without a separate driver install.
How many controllers can it take?
Microsoft rates the adapter for multiple controllers on one PC, so local multiplayer works without a second dongle.
