    Xbox Controller Not Working Correctly On PC


    Purchased a new Xbox controller about 3 weeks ago and was working fine with my PC until yesterday.

    Whenever I try and play games with it, the controller either doesn’t work at all, the button mapping is wrong or the game will bounce back to keyboard input after every button hit on the controller. If I move the joystick it acts as if I’m moving twice back to back and after every button press shows keyboard icons despite nothing other than the controller being plugged into the PC.

    Can’t work out what on earth it could be as it was fine one night and completely broken the next morning.

    :)

    Xbox Controller Not Working Correctly On PC

    Hello!

    My name is Dérek, I'm an independent platform consultant and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help you.

    Zac, I'm sorry about that, friend.

    Do a basic test, and try connecting the controller to another device, such as another PC, console, or cell phone. See if it still doesn't work.

    If it doesn't work, it really means that something internally has been damaged, and repair will be necessary.

    Click on this link, if your console appears in your account click on it or register it.

    After clicking on it, go to ''online service''. In the category put ''accessories'' and next to ''standard control'' and fill in the form with your data.

    If it works normally on another platform, perform this process below

    Go to your windows update and click on get updates

    After updating

    See which version is your windows this way, and tell me

    The version consists of 4 digits

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/402739...

    And then go to the Microsoft Store, select More > Downloads & updates > Get updates.

    Update everything in both places, and let me know if it works

    I remain at your disposal if you have any further questions.

    Controller gets stuck

    What type of problem are you having with your controller?

    MY CONTROLLER WON’T CONNECT TO MY CONSOLE OR PC -> it doesn't apply. the controller does connect to my pc

    I CAN’T UPDATE MY CONTROLLER -> it doesn't apply. Xbox Accessories says it is up to date

    MY CONTROLLER DOESN’T FUNCTION CORRECTLY -> somehow it doesn't. let's take this option

    MY CONTROLLER WON’T POWER ON -> it doesn't apply. the controller does power on

    SOME OR ALL OF THE BUTTONS ON MY CONTROLLER DON’T WORK AT ALL -> it doesn't apply. All buttons do work correctly

    SOME OF THE BUTTONS ON MY CONTROLLER DON’T WORK AS EXPECTED -> it doesn't apply. All buttons do work as expected.

    so:

    My xbox series x controller keeps connecting to the wrong wireless dongle.

    Just this controller I think. My roommates controller connects correctly to his pc and the others are synced to an xbox.

    Xbox One controller doesn't work correctly on PC

    Make sure the window is clicked on. Sometimes windows loses focus when it comes to controllers and you have to remind it

    I usually play in full screen mode. I just tried it with Ori to be sure and it didn't change anything. I also tried it with fullscreen off to see if that would make a difference but it didn't. Thanks for the suggestion.
