    Xbox one s disconnects controller, saying switch to keyboard and mouse.


    As soon as I switch on xbox my controller does not work. Try syncing xbox and controller. Controller will turn on xbox and let me enter my pin then I get notice to switch to keyboard and mouse. Never used keyboard and mouse. And with no control how do I stop this? This has happened to both controllers.

    Appreciate any help.

    :)

    Mouse and Keyboard on Fortnite

    Already have Xbox insider hub. And thanks for the reply. So whats happening is i have my mouse and keyboard plugged in as normal the game loads up, and i cannot see my mouse, i can click start but it thinks im on controller. So if i unplug my controller,
    it will say “controller disconnected” which should not happen as i have a keyboard and mouse so, if i go into s game i csn move around with bot keyboard and mouse, but if i click inventoryi cant see my mouse again. Basically if i plug it thinks im on controller
    but the mouse is plugged in and i cant see the mouse at all.

    Xbox one s disconnects controller, saying switch to keyboard and mouse.

    Hello Rob M, My name is Khaji I am an independent advisor and I will be happy to help you today.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your Xbox One S controller and the prompt to switch to a keyboard and mouse, let's try the follow to solve this problem:

    1. Connect your controller to the Xbox One S using a USB cable and check for any available updates. To update the controller, go to the Xbox Accessories app on your console and follow the instructions to update the firmware if an update is available.

    2. Try re-syncing the controller with your Xbox One S. To do this, press and hold the Xbox button on the controller until it turns off. Then, press and hold the pairing button on the front of the Xbox One S console until the Xbox button on the controller starts flashing. Allow them to sync, and the controller should reconnect.

    3. Ensure that the batteries in your controller have enough charge. If the battery is low, it may cause connectivity issues. Try using fresh batteries or connect the controller to the console using a USB cable to eliminate any battery-related problems.

    4. Keep other wireless devices, such as routers or smartphones, away from the Xbox One S console. These devices can sometimes interfere with the controller's signal, causing connectivity problems.

    5. Perform a power cycle of your Xbox One S by turning it off, unplugging the power cord, waiting for a few minutes, and then plugging it back in. Turn on the console and see if the issue persists.

    6. If you're using a wired controller, try connecting it to a different USB port on the console. This can help identify if the issue is with the USB port itself.

    Thank you very much for your patience and understanding! If you need anything else, do not hesitate to contact us again.

    Mouse and keyboard support on Xbox one?

    The XBOX One does support Mouse & Keyboard but only for a handful of games at the moment such as Battlefield V which I use a Mouse & Keyboard on one but I switched back to the controller because the were more keys to push than buttons on the controller.

    Does it work?

    How could or would a game like Age of Empires work on console?

    the original Xbox only came with a controller. the Xbox 360 only came with a controller. the Xbox One comes with a controller. you can't buy an Xbox One with a Keyboard and Mouse.
    in my opinion if they don't sell them with a Keyboard and Mouse they shouldn't have support for Keyboard and Mouse. if you want to use
    Keyboard and Mouse you should play on a PC and not on a console.
