    Xbox Wireless Controller not being recognized anymore


    My Xbox Wireless Controller isn't even detected anymore by Microsoft-related apps. Xbox Accessories, Microsoft Edge, the Xbox app itself... none of them even recognizes it as an actual controller anymore. They don't detect an official controller! It did work until a couple days ago, and they stopped detecting it out of nowhere. On the other hand, Steam keeps detecting and using it normally.

    I've already updated my controller to the latest firmware. Nothing changed.

    What's happening!?

    :)

    Xbox Wireless Controller not being recognized anymore

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello William, if you have a USB cabe, try t follow the procedures bellow.

    First remove the batteries from the controller and for 1 minute keep pressing all the buttons on the controller and moving the knobs.

    After you're done, plug the USB cable controller into your PC and turn it on.

    After this try to revert the firmware following the link below.

    headphones on controller do not work

    The console recognizes the controller, it appears in the settings- xbox wireless controller menu. But nothing is heard, it is as if it were muted. But it is not.

    xbox 360 controller not working on PC

    Is the controller a wireless controller or wired? If it is wireless, how are you connecting it? If by using the play & charge kit, then the Xbox 360 controller will not work, as the cable is only recognized on PC for charging only. You need to use a Xbox
    360 Wireless adapter for PC to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to your PC.

    Turtle beach headset not working on one controller.

    Hello Erin,

    It seems that the Turtle Beach headset is not recognized when connected to one of the controllers.

    Is the red controller a Xbox One Wireless Controller? Or is it wired into the console?

    If wired, attempt different USB connection ports, and if wireless attempt to plug the controller directly into the console to see if this is the same result.

    If it is still the same result without the headset being recognized, then the controller may need to be replaced.

    You may also reach out to our Customer Support Team to investigate further.

    Try this out and let us know how this goes.

    Best wishes!
