However, if your computer is a significant distance away from your Xbox, it's probably easiest just to set your controller up on the PC. On your computer, download the 'Xbox Console Companion' app. It's worth noting that this is different than the 'Xbox' app.
Once you have it, choose the 'Connections' tab from the sidebar — it's second from the bottom and uses a minimalistic picture of an Xbox console.
Clicking it will prompt the app to look for local Xboxes to connect with. Choose yours from the menu that comes up! Note that it will only appear as long as your Xbox and your computer are using the same WiFi network.
Once you've managed to connect the Xbox to your computer, look out for the 'Stream' button. Your computer screen will begin to display your Xbox home screen and you can play as you normally would!
