I try to connect my XBox One S Controller to PC via Bluetooth. I can see a controller named "Gamecontroller", sometimes it has the name "Xbox Wireless Controller". When I try to pair now I have to enter a pair code or something. When I leave it blank and just press OK it seems to install the driver or something and then is "connected". But my controller's XBox button is still blinking and I cannot use it. Any ideas?

I have three recommendations to solve your problems.
#1
Since it is one of the features of the new Xbox One S controller to be able to connect wirelessly to your pc, I suggest you
remove the controller from your pc devices. Go to Settings > Devices > Bluetooth. Then you can select the controller and then select "Remove device."
then follow the steps in this video Use Bluetooth to connect your Xbox One controller

The alternative & best way to connect a Xbox One controller to your PC is to buy this:
It doesn't cost much, you can get for less than $20 on Amazon, and trust me my friend when I tell you it will make your life easier. You simply plug it in the USB port of your pc and connect your controller wirelessly. Magic! Also it supports up to 8 controllers simultaneously as well as 4 chat headsets and 2 stereo headsets, so it's definitely worth it in my opinion!

If you need to use the controller urgently and the first solution did't work, just use a micro usb cable to play temporarily until you get the problem fixed. It looks like this:
Hope this helps!
