    Xbox accessories won't save new profiles on elite 2 controller


    Hello

    I am having an issue with my Elite 2 controller, the Xbox Accessories app on Windows 10 will fail to save new profiles.

    After I finish mapping the buttons for the new profile, I click back and but I can't see the new profile and mappings that I just created.

    I have tried everything. I have reinstalled all xbox apps on windows including accessories. Have also reinstalled the controller firmware multiple times.

    I have seen many people complaining about the same issue with no solution. Anyhing I can do to fix this?

    :)

    Xbox accessories won't save new profiles on elite 2 controller

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this THMARANO

    Please answer the following questions to assist you properly :
    Is this happening with the controller connected via cable or do you have it connected via Bluetooth?
    Is this the first time that you want to use custom profiles or was you able to do it in the past?
    Also, are you able to test the feature with a completely different PC, or if you have an Xbox Console try there

    How does one delete a controller/accessory?

    Hi there Dan Hurt,

    Thanks for the update. Take a look at the following troubleshooting article
    Configuring the Elite controller
    for more information.

    • The slots correspond with the Profile Switch in the middle of your Xbox Elite Wireless Controller. You can have two different profiles saved to your controller at one time. For example, if Slot 1 is your shooter profile and Slot 2 is your racing profile,
      just flip the switch and you're ready to go. You won't need to adjust any other settings. You can also do this while you play a game.
    • Your configuration of the slots travels with your controllers. If you take your controller to a friend's house, the configuration will be saved on the controller and usable there.
    • If you customize Slot 1 or Slot 2 on your controller on a different console, the new configuration will be saved to the controller and overwrite your old configuration.

    I recommend reviewing the configuration for the elite controller.

    Give this a try and let us know the results.

    Xbox elite 1 issues with rubber

    Hi darrenmonk,,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums.

    We won't be able to provide proof that the grips won't peel off as that would be impossible since everyone grips their controller differently, but all we can say is that the series 2 Elite controller was improved with every previous feature in mind and that
    includes the rubberized grips, as they now wrap around all the way to the top of the controller.

    There won't be any discounts for owning the original Elite controller.

    You can read more about the new Elite controller from the following sites:

    Hi!

    I don't think the elite control accessories are compatible with those in the series 2
