    Xbox controller works in Xbox Accessories, but not in games


    I bought an Xbox controller with a wireless adapter. The controller shows up on Xbox accessories and all the buttons work there, but games don't detect it, so none of the buttons work in games. Any ideas? I'm on windows 10.

    :)
