xbox series x controller works properly when connected to a cable and not properly when...

I can't find one designed for series x controller. They are all for xbox one controller and don't fit series x controller properly.

Where did you purchase the Xbox One X console from? If none of the controllers are syncing even when you use a cable, that seems extremely odd. Do the controllers at least work properly when they are plugged in to the console via a wire? If the controllers
are working on your old Xbox, but not the new one then it doesn't seem like they'd need to be updated either.

Is it it in properly? I remember when i got my Series X i had to really push the power cable in as the fit was so tight.I had to try the cable from my Xbox One S to see if that fitted & it did so i then tried the cable that came with my Series X again & it eventually fitted but it was a extremely tight fit.

Here are some steps you can try to get your Xbox Series X controller to work on your Windows 10 desktop PC:

Check for updates: Make sure your Windows 10 operating system is up-to-date. Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and check for any updates that may be available.

Install Xbox Accessories app: Make sure you have the Xbox Accessories app installed on your PC. You can download it from the Microsoft Store.

Connect your controller via USB: Connect your Xbox Series X controller to your PC using a USB cable. Make sure the cable is properly connected to both the controller and the PC.

Try a different USB port: Try connecting the controller to a different USB port on your PC. Sometimes, certain USB ports may not work properly.

Check Device Manager: Open Device Manager on your PC and check if the controller is detected. To do this, right-click on the Start menu and select Device Manager. Look for any unknown devices or controllers with a yellow triangle icon. If you see any, right-click on them and select Update Driver.

Reset the controller: Try resetting your controller by pressing the small button on the back of the controller near the USB port. Hold it for a few seconds and then release it.

Try a different cable: If you have a different USB cable, try using it to connect your controller to your PC.

If none of these steps work, it's possible that your PC may not be compatible with the Xbox Series X controller. You may need to consider purchasing a different controller or upgrading your PC.

Hey there,

I've been trying the "xboxaccessories://firmwareupdate?legacyDowngrade=true" command but it doesn't seem to be working for me. I've been trying to use my new Xbox Series X/S Wireless Controller for my PC but the controls don't work properly. Device Manager detects the controller when connected through Bluetooth as ""Bluetooth LE XINPUT compatible input device", which results in the controls not properly mapped/working. I've tried practically everything, but can't get anything to work.

I read an earlier Reddit thread suggesting that a recent or the most recent firmware update (which I updated to thru the Xbox Accessories app) kind of prevented the controllers from working with Windows through a Bluetooth connection. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the controller's drivers through Device Manager multiple times using the 'Let me Pick from a list of available drivers on my computer' but it still doesn't work properly.

Any help would be appreciated!
