However, if you install the adapter and it shows up as “Xbox Acc,” you’ll have to force a new update.

My experience has been rock solid, with zero issues. Or with Valve’s Steam running into issues. This was a huge issue before, with many people experiencing issues such as their controllers going to sleep and not waking up with a connection. I’m also happy to report that I haven’t had any issues with driver support. I’ve also found that using Bluetooth is spotty, as the connection sometimes drops. I’m sure not many people will want to part with that controller or any special edition controllers they already own. The answer would be that there are still many controllers without that ability in the wild, including the costly (and possibly getting an update) Xbox One Elite controller. I’m sure many will wonder why Microsoft even bothered with this, especially since their newer controllers are Bluetooth-capable. With this new adapter, all that is a thing of the past. Both of the two that I own have been super glued, with black tape around them. The original adapter had a flaw where if you applied too much pressure to the USB connector, it would bend, and the casing would pull apart. The build quality, which is something I had a huge issue with, is immensely better. It’s about the size of a USB Flash drive, and in some cases, smaller. With this new adapter, however, I didn’t experience any of the previous issues. I didn’t even want to use it on my laptop due to the length. This happened so many times on my PC, hence the tape and glue. The original one was a hassle to use, as it protruded too far out, which resulted in it not fitting in certain spaces that or got smacked by accident if it was on the front of your PC. Smaller, 66% smaller according to Microsoft, this adapter can fit just about anywhere. Thankfully, this new adapter does nearly everything the first adapter did. Two years after Microsoft released the first Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10, we now have an updated version. Name: Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows 10

Thankfully, Microsoft has released an updated wireless adapter for Windows 10 that does everything the original version did and does it better. But it was unsightly, it stuck out way too far, and the build quality was terrible. This enabled PC gamers to use Microsoft’s Xbox One controllers on the platform since the controllers didn’t have Bluetooth built-in. Back in 2015, Microsoft released a wireless USB adapter for Windows 10.
