  1. My PC does not recognize my Xbox 360 Controllers


    Hey, maybe someone can help me: I do own two original Xbox 360 controllers, one wired (fully wired, not "plug and charge"), one wireless. Both have previously worked with my PC, but recently (might be since the Windows 11 update) I cant connect them to my PC anymore. This problem persists for both controllers, no matter which USB Port I use for the wire or the windows bluetooth adapter. The controllers also arent listed in the device manager menue and are not recognized by the Xbox-Accessories App. Im out of ideas...

    Error updating xbox one controller EN-ES

    Hi xbf crystal

    my controller is not recognized by windows. I have everything updated, and the bug fixer does not give me any solution. If I go into configuration -> devices -> controller-> controller properties tells me that it is an xbox controller, but the controller
    does not recognize it properly because does not respond and the xbox accessories application does not recognize it either. In configuration -> devices appears as a ''controller'' but without being well installed as it is impossible to use.

    In conclusion, my pc knows that I connect to the usb an xbox one controller but does not have the driver or the proper update to use it and my xbox tries to update every time I connect to the console but is frozen at 0% or 100% of the update, never ends.

    Thank you for your help!

    Can I use Original Xbox360 controller on pc (the controller of the xbox360)?

    If the Xbox 360 controller is a wired controller, then the controller can be used on the PC, just plug it in the USB port, and it should recognize it and let you use it. If it is a wireless Xbox 360 controller, then you will need the Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows to connect the controller to your PC.

    Xbox (Beta) App on Windows 10 with Xbox 360 controller?

    Yes it is possible I know this from first hand experience I have a wired xbox 360 controller and use it to play ALL of my games on my PC including when streaming my xbox One to my PC I can still play the Xbox One games. It is also plug and play so the
    PC should automatically recognize the controller and it acts (uses the same controller configurations) as if you were playing on the Xbox one.

    Xbox app streaming not (any longer) supports two controllers ?

    I have the same problem too, two Win 10 Pcs exhibit the same problems, hell even the Android Beta App does on my phone!

    I have two 360 controllers rigged by 360 wireless receiver for windows, two bone controllers by USB cable.

    The App will only recognize the first connected controller, usually "player 1" on the 360 controller pairs.

    Steam detects everything fine, all the controllers appear using joy.cpl and their inputs are correct. All games on my PC play fine with the 4 controllers, the streaming app will only recognize one when a stream is established.

    I've factory defaulted my Xbone, I've upgraded firmware, I've done pretty much everything shy of buying a brand new PC and installing Windows 10 to it (my 2nd windows Pc was brand new and never used streaming before this).

    Beta version of the app has the same problem.

    I thought it was related to the Windows 10 anniversary/creators update, but it obviously wasn't.

    There appears to be a problem in the current version of the App where it is no longer recognizing multiple controllers on the PC, the Beta version has the same problem.

    Welcome to the party!

    The issue is not the App but the Xbox itself. That behavior has been there since the last Xbox system update (May 21st), but it seems that no one in MS cares about it...
