    Xbox Accessories App - Cannot Create Profiles


    I just got an Xbox Elite controller for the first time. I plugged the controller into my PC via micro USB and installed the Xbox Accessories App.

    Somehow, in the process of trying to create a new controller profile, the default profile was deleted and now it is completely impossible for me to create a new profile. When I was trying to create a new profile, the app simply would not let me do it. Now
    that the only customizable profile that I had is completely gone, this controller can no longer be configured.

    I really need help with this. I have looked everywhere and have not found any solutions. If I cannot find a solution, I will probably have to return the controller, as it is basically just a glorified, $150 Xbox One controller at this point in time for me.

    :)

    Adaptive Controller button combinations

    With the Xbox Adaptive Controller you can customize your experience. Use the Xbox Accessories app on Xbox One or Windows 10 to further customize your experience through button remapping and profiles. Create multiple controller profiles in the app and instantly
    switch between three of them with the built-in Profile button.

    Xbox Accessories App - Cannot Create Profiles

    I think I found a solution. I guess I had to fully login to my Xbox Live account to gain full functionality of the app. I would delete this post, but I cannot, as it will not allow me to.
