You can connect an Xbox controller to a PC in two ways: either by a wire or wirelessly. In a wired connection, simply plug the controller using a USB cord, and Windows should recognize it without the need for additional drivers or software.

For wireless, create a connection by Bluetooth only if your controller supports this feature. Otherwise, use the Xbox Wireless Adapter: power on the controller, press the sync button, and pair it from Windows Bluetooth settings.
