Weird Bluetooth /Xbox one s issue

Hi all,

Don't know if its any coincidence but i took my pad to my friends a week back to play 2 player on xbox.
Since then it wont sync with my PC on Windows 10.

In settings it says paired but the xbox pad keeps flashing and eventually gives up.
If I try and un-pair,the pad, teh settings app freezes and nothing happens.

Strangely in control panel proper, It says this 'device set up in progress' on the BT adaptor and the pad??

Any ideas? Thanks

How many paired devices can it store in its memory for so it can connect/disconnect from/between them (not same as pairing repairing)?

I would factory reset it and repair with your own devices.

Just one device, My PC and the xbox pad. I only used it on my mates xbox the one time, other than that it's just used with my PC.

Dunno how you factory reset the pad - i tried xbox button, up and left on d-pad, doesn't do anything, thanks.

That is two devices but I would assume the controller can store at least 2 paired devices at any given time (cheap headphone mostly are one devices so they re-pair every time you swap between devices, some other still cheap headphones can store 2-3 devices (all mines can store at least 3) at any one time and the likes of Sony XM3 can store about 5-7 AFAIR.
