Thank you for your interest in this question.

Would you like to answer one of these unanswered questions instead? Firstly I downloaded the drivers for the controller and the wireless adaptor manually. Then uninstalled these and let Windows download them manually.
The problem is that my PC simply is not detecting the controller when connected wirelessly. The steps I am doing are these precisely: - I turn on the controller pressing the Xbox button which starts blinking slowly - then I turn on the wireless option in the controlling by pressing the wireless button for about 3 seconds and the LED starts blinking rapidly - then I plug in the adaptor and turn it in by pressing the wireless button for about 3 seconds and it starts blinking slowly, more or less at the same rate than the controller LED - then I press the Xbox controller button several times until both controller and adaptor LEDs stop blinking, which I assume mean the wireless connection has been established I have never had an Xbox so I don't know if this is it for sure However the PC doesn't detect any new device at all.
The biggest problem is that several of the games I tested would not recognize the controller, including Dark Souls II, Transistor and Eldritch. Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers did not help, so hopefully this is just a temporary issue that Microsoft and game developers can resolve through updates.
Also, the first time I installed the driver, Windows 7 showed a 'Runtime Error' after plugging in the controller, followed by an 'XboxStat. The controller still worked, but the message was a nuisance. These messages went away after reinstalling the driver. Finally, keep in mind that plugging the controller into a PC will break its wireless connection to the Xbox One.
