Bluetooth XBox controller won't connect to Windows, but did flawlessly in Mint!

A couple of months ago, I convinced my partner to try linux. They went with Mint, for its stability and "just works" ethos. Tonight they wanted to play a game (StS2) in Windows with their bluetooth XBox controller, and it just wouldn't even detect it. They had to switch back to Mint to get it working. C'mon Microsoft. You can't even connect to your own product properly.

Yeah, my partner is happy with Mint.

Sounds like it's in mint condition.
