Xbox accessories app won´t regocnize my new xbox elite series 2 controller

bpnji · Mar 6, 2022

I bought this controller yesterday and wanted to remap the paddles the same way i did with my scuf and found out id have to do this in an app, as i downloaded it, it said id had to connect the controller manually with an usb so i conncted it with the usb cable that was coming with it and the app said it the firmware of my controller is too new for this app and that id have to wait for an update. i did my research and found out that it could be because im on windows 11. and i found out that this problem is an issue since october 2021. so when is microsoft finally releasing the update? otherwise im giving the controller back and ill stick with scuf controllers.

like i said it is NOT POSSIBLE to connect the Controller with the Xbox accessories app till the Update for the new firmware is out. which means i cannot check the controllers firmware because im unable to connect it tot the app,
