Xbox wireless controller won't work in Accessories app test mode (PC)

I am on a PC where can I find the update? My Xbox Accessories app say that my controller is up to date.

my Controller firmware is 4.8.1908.0

The Xbox Accessories app recognise my controller and even register the stick movements when I set up a profile. But in Test Mode no buttons are registering?????

Sadly didn't fix it :/

The accessory app won't work since my PC won't recognize the controller since it's just blinking

I'm having similar issues with my xbox one controller connected through usb on my windows 10 pc. The controller just stops working mid-game. If I alt-tab out and into the program is starts working again but quickly stop working. When testing the buttons
using the xbox accessories app - test mode shows no buttons being pressed. Not sure what's going on. Let me know if you found a solution. Thanks.

Hi there Volcannon,

Thanks for reaching out. I'm sorry to hear about the issue with creating slots/profiles for the accessory device. What accessory are you working with? (Xbox One wireless controller, Xbox One Elite wireless controller, Adaptive Controller)

I recommend taking a look at the following troubleshooting articles:

Hello there.

Wireless controllers won't work with Windows PCs unless you have an Xbox 360 wireless adapter for PC (it's quite cheap on websites like amazon).

If you have a WIRED controller then make sure you have the latest drivers.

Wireless controllers + Play n Charge kit cable are not to be considered wired and will need a wireless adapter to work.
