How to Remove Xbox & PS5 Controller from PC (Bluetooth Settings)

To remove an Xbox or PS5 controller from your PC via Bluetooth, use the Settings app to unpair the device, and if that fails, try Device Manager, the Control Panel, or the Windows Registry for stubborn devices.

Step 1 — Remove via Bluetooth Settings
Press Windows + I to open Settings.
Navigate to Bluetooth & devices.
Locate your controller under Other devices or Paired devices.
Click on the three dots next to the controller and select Remove device or Disconnect

If you successfully remove it, the controller will no longer connect automatically.

Step 2 — Turn Off Bluetooth (Optional)
If the controller reappears or cannot be removed:
Temporarily turn off Bluetooth on your PC so the controller cannot reconnect.
Try removing the controller again through Settings Bluetooth & devices.
Turn Bluetooth back on once removal is complete

Step 3 — Use Device Manager
Press Windows + X and select Device Manager.

Go to View Show hidden devices if the controller is not visible.
Expand Bluetooth and Human Interface Devices.
Right-click the controller and choose Uninstall device

Restart your PC to ensure the removal is complete.
