    My PC registers 2 xbox controllers when I connect only 1


    Hey, I recently bought a wireless xbox controller and I often use it on PC. However when I connect to the PC all the games register 2 controllers instead of one. This does not happen when I connect using a wired connection. I only bought it to use it wirelessly
    on my PC and I cannot use it now. P.S. I connect it via Bluetooth.

    :)

    Xbox One Controller successfully connected to PC via bluetooth does not work with Windows apps.

    Of course. On my Elite Series 2 I'm on FW 5.11.3118.0

    It does not show on my PC / I cannot see it in the Xbox accessories because the console FW is too far ahead for the PC to understand at this time, however I am still able to use my controller to play my games on the PC when it is connected via USB-C. It does not register as a "Controller" on Bluetooth in this firmware.

    I've reverted my controller to 4.8.1908.0 and it registers on the PC via Bluetooth. I have not had any issues with gameplay.

    So no need to update now. If everything works, leave it be.

    Windows registering 2 controllers when I only have 1

    Hi, Sean! I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your third-party controller. No worries, I'm happy to assist you with this today.

    May I know first if you are using this controller to play games using the Xbox App or the Steam App?

    I'm looking forward to your response so we can sort this out.

    Left and Right Triggers not working on PC, Bluetooth Connection, Xbox One Controller, All other buttons works

    DS3 is Dark Souls 3, I am playing it through steam and no it had the issue the moment I connected it to my pc. I am unable to use the Xbox Accessories App to update my controller because it does not recognize a controller being connected. When I look in my device manager the controller is labeled "HID-compliant game controller" I am able to deactivate it and it deactivates my controller. But it seems that Xbox Accessories doesn't register my controller properly even if my computer does. I am also unable to use my Xbox Elite 2 controller with steam but it works with other games. I've already updated both controllers using my Xbox One S.

    Elite Controller 2 Bluetooth issues

    My elite 2 when connected to PC via bluetooth loses connection and I am also experiencing sudden frame rate drops which I do not see when playing it with wired or keyboard or mouse. I did not had any issues with Elite 1 which connected via a usb
    dongle. I updated the controller and the bluetooth feature is broken. Anyone got it to work on PC via bluetooth without any issues?
    exactly the same issue here, have no problem with using my xbox one s controller on PC, but lots of disconnections and frame rate drops with elite 2

    Xbox One controller turn off when I press the bluetooth button (PC and Steam Link)

    Yes, I'm trying to connect my controller via Bluetooth on my Windows 10 PC (It worked before yesterday). When I connect my controller via USB Cable it works fine.

    The XBox Button flashing slowly when it's turn on. When I press the sync button to connect via Bluetooth, the XBox Button flashes for 1 second and the controller turn off.
