Yes. Easy to find with Google. Do you know Google? Recommended. You get the answer much faster and much more detailed than in a forum.

I bought the XBox PC controller. No hunting for drivers as well, Microsoft keeps them at the ready because it’s their OS.

Yes, you can connect an Xbox 360 controller wirelessly to a laptop using the official Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming Receiver. Simply plug it into the USB port, install the drivers, and sync the controller.

Hope that helps!

Yes, you can connect an Xbox 360 controller to a Windows laptop wirelessly. To do so, you’ll need an Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows. This device allows you to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to your laptop via USB. Once you have the receiver plugged in, you can sync your Xbox 360 controller to it by pressing the sync button on both the receiver and the controller. After that, your laptop should detect the controller automatically, and you can start using it for gaming.
