    Windows 10 - Xbox One controller triggers do not work


    On Windows 10. I bought a Xbox One controller, but the triggers do not work. I looked on the net for answers, and tons of people have this issue. Most people say to install older Xbox One controller drivers, but every link has sent me on a link-to-link adventure
    I do not have time for.

    I spent 7 hours strait trying to get these triggers to work. I saw someone say they needed to install Windows 7 Microsoft Accessories, so I did that and nothing changed. I downloaded the Xbox Accessories App from the store because it said I could configure
    my controller with it. It told me I was using Bluetooth and made me connect a usb, so I went and bought a usb, clicked Configure and the left and right triggers were not even listed, which obviously made mapping them impossible.

    Also, when I connected a usb, it showed a second controller diagram and linked my profile to that one, leaving the original abandoned. This means I would need to use the usb at all times to play. This defeats the purpose of a wireless controller, and since
    the usb only has a 5-foot cord, that is already out of the question.

    Summary:

    1. Wireless Xbox One controller has triggers bound to Back and Start
    2. I needed the Xbox Accessories App to map buttons
    3. I need bluetooth to use my controller
    4. The app only allows Configure to work if the controller is connected via usb
    5. Connecting usb forces the controller to bind to a usb-only connection
    6. Without the Configure option present, I can't load a saved profile with buttons mapped to my bluetooth-connected controller
    7. Configure option is only present if a usb is connected
    8. This makes the controller useless because I bought a wireless controller due to the fact I am about 12 feet from my TV (monitor)

    The strangest part is, when I used Test on the Xbox Accessories app to test my buttons, both triggers were instantly recognized. When I played a game, the triggers were mapped to the Back and Start buttons. Why in the world was that a good idea?

    So, the Back and Start buttons are triggers, and the actual triggers are left disabled and unmapped., and the Xbox One App Configuration does not know the triggers are there, but when I run Test on that same app, it totally sees both triggers
    and the Back and Start buttons.

    Option 1:

    How do I remap triggers to the trigger buttons and
    enable Back and Start? Need to do both since moving the trigger functions from Back and Start to the triggers will either leave them without a function, or leave 2 sets of trigger buttons.

    Option 2:

    How do I roll back to an older Xbox One controller driver version? According to many people the older drivers still work as intended but I can't find a direct link to any other version.
