If you're all about that wireless life, you can connect via Bluetooth. First, make sure your controller has Bluetooth (some older ones don't). Press the Xbox button to turn it on, then press and hold the connect button on the top of the controller. On your PC, go to Bluetooth settings, select 'Add Bluetooth or other device,' then choose your controller from the list!

As someone who’s done it a million times, I suggest getting the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows. It’s reliable and simple! Just plug the adapter into a USB port, press the pair button on the adapter and the controller, and watch them connect like magic.
