    Game Controller Settings list is empty


    Hello everyone,

    I got a little Probleme here, I plugged an XBox 360 Controller in and it got recognized by Windows 10 and on the Guide Button one green light is on.

    But the main problem is that when I go to Device and Hardware and do the usual thing "Right Click > Settings" the list is empty where it actually say which controller it is and the Status and do a calibration and so on. But I don't have it somehow. I can't
    calibrate my controller nor use it in games.

    I'm actually able to press the Guide Button and it opens an Menu where I can record the game but the main functions like using it doesn't work.

    Any idea how to fix that?

    Thanks!

    Moved from: Windows 10 / Devices & drivers

    :)

  2. Gray Screen, with sound

    Reset display setting to factory default.



    • Make sure the disc tray is empty.
    • Turn on the console.
    • On the controller, press and hold the right trigger and Y.
    This will reset video to factory setting and then your console will restart.

    I am just going to keep throwing ideas out there.

  3. Xbox Controller wont turn on? I have new batteries and it is plugged into the xbox.

    Have you tried:

    - Another new set of batteries, controller NOT plugged into the console.

    - Battery compartment EMPTY, controller is plugged into the console.

    - Battery compartment EMPTY, controller is plugged into the console with a different Micro-USB cord.

    Let's make sure we rule out the odd ends.

    Yes I just got this issue today. I quickly ran towards the forums to find an solution, but after restarting my console for the third time my friends list and friends started to appear again. I don't know why that happened, but it was fixed after a few tries.
