    Need to connect a controller when trying to join someone


    It says I need to connect a controller when I try to join someone else after I get an invite. It doesn't happen when I normally stream a game, but when I try to join someone through an invite or their profile it says I need to connect a controller.

    In the image you can see I am cloud gaming with a controller, but when I get an invite it says I need to connect one

    Need to connect a controller when trying to join someone

    I tried uninstalling the Xbox app and resetting it. I am on Windows 10. This only started happening after I updated the Xbox app

    Hello again, try to check if your PC has the updates for the latest version at 22H2.

    See which version of Windows 10 you have

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/see...

    Updates are often seen as optional.

    If you haven't updated yet, click the link below, update, and make all subsequent security updates.

    Download Windows 10

    Download Windows 11

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    Also, make sure all Xbox Apps are up to date in the store, and make sure you have the Xbox Companion App installed, it works with the Xbox App.

    lets start a club

    Please can someone help me? I'm trying to join a friends club, but when I go to accept the invite, I get a message saying that I can't join due to my xbox live parental controls. My xbox doesn't have any parental controls set up on it, and I've no idea
    if I'm just missing something somewhere regarding the xbox live controls. It was the same when I tried to create a club on TDU2, it said I wasn't allowed. Can anyone help me? It's really beginning to annoy me and I don't fancy spending half an hour waiting
    to be connected to a support guy @.com. Thanks

    My Minecraft on Xbox won't load pass Locating Server

    perhaps someone is preventing you from joining, i know that sounds silly but sometimes connections for whatever reason do not agree for example when i used to play GTA

    friend 1 would join and friend 2 couldn't join me

    they would invite me each-other until both of them reset and it finally worked

    try hosting a world to test your connection , if the same exact issue happens to someone else try joining the world before them see if that fixes it or try telling them to reset

    these problems are confusing and make zero sense i am sure with trial and error you will fix it
