    My Xbox Elite Series 2 controller randomly disconnects from my laptop


    Recently, my controller would stop allowing me to push buttons in the middle of a game. My controller is connected to my laptop via the cable it came with and I have tried multiple different cables to see if it was just an issue with the cord. I also tried
    every USB port on my computer and still had the same issue. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver for the controller through device manager. I can fix the connection by unplugging and plugging back in the controller but it only lasts for a
    few minutes before disconnecting again. As far as I know the controller is still charging/connected to the computer when it gets disconnected from the game since the Xbox icon doesn't start blinking.

    Has anyone had this issue and fixed it?

    :)

    Microsoft Elite Controller 2 disconnects from XBOX One X intermittently

    This did not work, I also noticed that if I shut off the XBOX One X it disconnects this controller and I have to reconnect it on startup. This does not happen with my other controllers just the Elite series 2 one.. I'll request a replacement

    Elite Controller Disconnecting

    Hello RobHM1, I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today. My name is Khaji

    I'm sorry to hear that you are experiencing disconnection issues with your Elite Series 2 controller on your Xbox Series X.

    First make sure the Elite Series 2 controller battery is fully charged. A low battery can cause intermittent disconnections. It is always advisable to use fully charged batteries or keep the controller connected via a USB cable.

    Check to see if firmware updates are available for your Elite Series 2 controller. You can do this through the Xbox Accessories app on your Xbox Series X console. Keeping firmware up-to-date can fix connectivity and stability issues.

    If you are using the controller wirelessly, make sure there is no nearby interference that could affect the signal. Move other wireless devices such as routers, cell phones, or other Bluetooth devices away from your Xbox and the controller. You can also try changing a wired connection using a USB cable to rule out wireless connectivity issues.

    If you have access to another controller, try connecting it to your Xbox Series X and playing for a while to see if you experience the same disconnection issues. This will help you determine if the issue is specifically related to the Elite Series 2 controller or if it is broader.

    Reset the controller settings You can try resetting the Elite Series 2 controller to factory settings. To do this, press and hold the profile and sync buttons on the back of the controller until all four LED indicators flash. Then, pair the controller with your Xbox again and check if the issue still occurs.

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

    , I have a problem with the elite controller

    I got a similar issue going on with my elite series 2, it randomly opens the share tab of the guide menu, even when not even touching the controller. It just does it completely on its own at random intervals....

    Elite Series 2 controller Bluetooth issue

    I have a new Elite Series 2 Controller, and having issues with Bluetooth that randomly disconnects.

    I can reproduce it by lauching WRC 8, at some point in the menu or in a race, the controller will get disconnected after a big stutter, and sometimes, it never reconnects (light is blinking on the controller, Windows says the controller is paired but will
    never see it connected even after restarting the controller, in this case, I have to remove the controller from Bluetooth device list and pair again).

    The controller firmware is up to date, Windows 10 64 bits is up to date, the Bluetooth driver from my Z390 motherboard with Intel Bluetooth controller is up to date.

    I have a regular Bluetooth XBox One X controller that works perfectly on the same host.

    Also, we are multiple people to have the exact same issue:

    same issue here, i have a DELL Z370 AURORA R8, my old xbox one s controller works really well with it, got tons of issues after using ELite 2
