Both XBOX botton and "A" botton can open Xbox game bar on windows 10

Hey,

if you haven‘t already installed the Xbox Accessoires App download and install it from the Microsoft Store for free or click here: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/xbox-accessories/9nblggh30xj3?activetab=pivot:overviewtab

Connect the controller via USB to your PC and you can remap the buttons in the App.

For sure I checked update using a wired connection. However, it's very sad to buy a controller 180€ without stable bluetooth compatibility, and have to buy a USB dongle to using this controller wireless. I mean I'm not sure this is the solution.

Thanks for helping

I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

I believe you must be using a Bluetooth connection to connect the controller to your PC, right? Have you connected the controller with a cable and checked for updates?

I believe it's some kind of incompatibility of the controller with Bluetooth and researching about it I didn't find another solution besides using the controller with a cable or the most recommended use the Xbox Wireless adapter.

I downloaded the Xbox Accessories app from the Windows Store, did the Controller Update within the app and now "A" doesn´t open the game bar anymore

Open Game Bar then press Settings (the Gear icon) then shortcuts then remove the A button from the shortcut list.

If that isn't the issue.

Go to Start < Xbox Game Bar < [Right click] < More < App Settings < Reset
