Hello!

Thanks for reaching out to us here on the forums with this situation. Can you give us a bit more information about this issue? Are you having trouble creating a button mapping profile on the Xbox Accessories App? Can you try uninstalling and reinstalling
the app itself? What kind of controller is it that you're trying to set up?

With the software you can at least verify if the adaptive controller is functioning correctly which will give you a better start point for troubleshooting.

Customize adaptive controller

Customize the Xbox Adaptive Controller in the Xbox Accessories app

• The Xbox Accessories app is available on Xbox One and Windows 10.
• The Xbox Accessories app won’t detect your controller if you’re using Bluetooth to connect to your PC. Connect your controller using Xbox Wireless, or plug the included USB-C cable into the back of the Xbox Adaptive Controller and plug the other end into
  your PC. For more info, see
  Connect the Xbox Adaptive Controller to a PC.
• If the Xbox Accessories app isn’t installed on your PC, you can get it in the Microsoft Store.

Create profiles and switch between them

To create a controller profile:

1. Using your Xbox Adaptive Controller, open the Xbox Accessories app.
2. Scroll to the Xbox Adaptive Controller, then select Configure.
3. Select New profile, give your profile a name, then configure your changes.
   
   Note Any button that you reassign will also apply to other inputs that have the same value. For example, if you reassign
   D-pad down on the face of the controller to the
   Y button , then the
   D-pad down 3.5mm port will also be assigned to the
   Y button .
4. When you’re done, press the B button.

Create multiple profiles in the app and switch between them using the Xbox Adaptive Controller’s built-in
Profile button.

1. Open the Xbox Accessories app, scroll to the Xbox Adaptive Controller, then select
   Configure.
2. In Profiles, select a controller profile you’ve created or create a new one.
3. Choose a slot.

You can assign a slot for up to three profiles. Press the Profile button on the Xbox Adaptive Controller to switch between them. When no bars appear lit next to the
Profile button, the controller is using the default button mapping.
