My controller ain't working how do I fix this

Hello Ricardo R, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

I understand that you are having problems with your Xbox controller after connecting it to your laptop.

Restart your controller: Press and hold the Xbox button on the controller for about 6 seconds to turn it off. Then press the Xbox button to turn the controller back on

Repair the controller: Try pairing the controller with your Xbox again

Check your controller settings: Make sure your controller is configured to use the correct input. Some controllers have multiple inputs (such as HDMI, DVI, VGA, etc.) and you may need to manually select the correct input

Update or reinstall your controller drivers: Sometimes detection issues can be caused by outdated or corrupt controller drivers.

Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

I'm glad to know that at least I gave you the intuition to get to the problem, sometimes we see errors that have quick and concise solutions, good luck dear!

Hello I found a solution what I had to do was unplug my Xbox for a minute then try again

Hi PaulBartlett6

Have you run the steps in Update xbox wireless controller? All controllers you use need to run the firmware update.

I prefer the usb method.

I recently got a notification that a controller update was required.

Do or do not, there is no try.......
