Windows 10 reinstalling my old unplugged gamepad controller! :/

Hi Kathy,

Thank you for getting back to you. Here are the answers to your questions:

May we know if this gamepad is working fine if connected to Consoles or mobile devices?

I have not connected the gamepad yet to consoles or mobile devices. The connection would not allow it to be connected to a mobile device.

How about if this gamepad is connected to Windows 10 PC?

This gamepad connects fine to my other laptop that is running windows 10. It sets it up as usual installing the driver when it is first plugged in.

Is this gamepad working previously on the same PC?

This gamepad used to work on this laptop before windows 11 was installed.

When did this issue happen? Was there a recent Windows update or new application installed on your device?

This issue happened after windows 11 was installed. I have reinstalled windows 11 from a fresh image and still the problem persists. I have tried the wired controller mentioned above, a Bluetooth controller with a wireless dongle, and an official Playstation 4 controller. All of them have presented the same issue when trying to connect with the computer.

Was this a gamepad compatible to Windows 8 or 10 and Windows 11?

No gamepad that I can see online currently says that it is compatible with windows 11. Every gamepad I have bought has said that are compatible with windows 8 or 10. I assume this is because windows 11 is a fairly new product and they don't want to make claims that they are unable to substantiate.

Do we have issues connecting different (in design or brand) gamepad or controller in your PC?

See answers above RE: other controllers.

This seems to be a major windows issue. I've noticed lots of people having this issue and most people don't seem to have been able to rectify the problem as of yet.

Pelo que pesquisei, é um controle para mobile. Tenha certeza que ao conectar no seu PC ele seja reconhecido como controle. No menu executar digite
joy.cpl e aperter Enter. Vai abrir as propriedades do controle, você poderá ver os botões funcionando.

EN: From what I've researched, it's a mobile control. Make sure that when connecting to your PC it is recognized as a control. On the Run menu type
joy.cpl and Enter. It will open the properties of the control, you can see the buttons working.

Had the same issue with my 360 gamepad. The solution was to update the 360 driver on Windows 10.

Unfortunately it brought back the other issue which had forced me to use an old driver> the newest one gives the analog left stick the power to control Windows menus, what's really annoying when you are using it as a mouse already (on a HTPC in my case).
Until Microsoft fix it, letting you choose to let the gamepad control just games and not the OS, as intended, the subpar solution will be keeping the driver switching when bumping into a game that expects the last one. Well, at least will now be able to play

Web translation- Hello, there's nothing wrong with my gamepadim, but my laptop doesn't see the gamepad.

How did you plug in your controller? if it's an xbox controller, do you have the adapter for windows 10?

Web translation in your language- Kumandanı nasıl taktın? xbox kumandası ise, windows 10 için bağdaştırıcı var mı?

I reinstalled windows 10, unplugged/plugged my router a couple of times, turn off/on my computer as well as many restarts...
