I've tried everything at this point. I got to a point where I wanted to reinstall the xbox peripherals driver, but after uninstalling it, and restarting my pc, my pc isn't installing it, which I was under the impression that it was supposed to do. I can't do anything in the Xbox Accessories app. I can't do anything in the Xbox app itself, and none of the 10+´youtube videos i've watched has resolved my issue. I'm trying to connect it via a USB-C Cable to my PC. The port works. The cable works. I have new batteries in the controller, and when i connect it to my pc, it rumbles, starts blinking and just remains unresponsive

Is the USB cable your using a data cable? Some cables do not support data and are only charging cables. You could use the cable on something like your phone and see if you can transfer files with it.
