Xbox controller turns off after waking up PC.

MikulaMali · Feb 11, 2023

Hi there,

I saw someone else ask the same question and it seems no answer was given here :

https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...-wake-up/5a1b15f7-a46d-4a91-a39f-568eec1905fb

So my issue is fairly similar. I have 3 controllers. 2 are Xbox series X and one is an Xbox one controller. Paired to the older USB adapter that has the ability to wake up my computer from sleep. I am trying to replicate that console feel where I can wake my PC with the controller and it works. However, then there is that weird bug where shortly after waking the PC the controller turns off and has to be turned on again. I have tried with all 3 controllers and the same thing happened.

I could use some help if this is something that can be fixed.

Thank you

:)

Hi, I'm Felipe, an expert and customer like you. I''m here to help.

This issue with the Xbox controller turning off after waking up your PC could be due to a few different factors. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue:

Update the controller firmware: Make sure the firmware on your Xbox controllers is up-to-date. You can do this by connecting the controller to your Xbox console or Windows 10 PC and checking for updates.

Update the adapter drivers: If you're using an older USB adapter, make sure the drivers for the adapter are up-to-date. You can do this by checking the manufacturer's website for updated drivers or by using Windows Update to check for updates.

Try a different USB port: Try connecting the adapter to a different USB port on your computer to see if the issue is related to the specific port you're using.

Disable power-saving options: Some power-saving options on your computer could be interfering with the controller's ability to stay connected. Try disabling these options and see if the issue persists.

Check for compatibility: Make sure the adapter and controllers you're using are compatible with your PC. Some older adapters and controllers may not work with newer computers, and vice versa.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may want to consider contacting the manufacturer of the adapter or Xbox support for further assistance.

Hello,

I’ve been having the same issue for the last couple of months.

My Xbox One X console is not in the Insiders program (afaik).

It shutdowns almost every time I try to wake it up after turning it off normally with a controller a day earlier.

Check PC BIOS for Wake on LAN ! - Turn it Off !

Does it turn on when nothing else is on or when you turn on whatever the HDMI is connected to?

Everything will be turned off. Itll sometime wake me up in the middle of the night because it will turn on. Tv will be off. Controllers unplugged and battery's taken out.
