  1. Controller is connected and working but i cannot use it in fortnite


    Hello,The past 2 days i have run into a problem using my controller playing fortnite on my PC, my controller is connect, and drivers are all updated, ibut when i load up fortnite i get no response from the controller, I have checked all the setting in fortnite and it is not an issue on that end. I've been able to get around this problem in the past running the game through steam but that is not working now either.Please help,Thanks

  2. Can't connect my ps4 controller for fortnite

    Dear Microsoft, It seems that whenever I want to connect my wireless ps4 controller to my PC so that my brother can play Fortnite, there is a problem. I've even installed apps such as Ds4windows and inputmapper and it still wouldn't work. Inputmapper kind
    of worked but I wasn't able to control anything on Fortnite other than the touch pad, and I was able to control the ps button but nothing else. Please try to come up with the best solution for my issue.

    Sincerely, Climper.

    Xbox Controller is not connecting to Wireless Adapter

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I appreciate your time and patience to work on this issue. To have a better clarity on the issue please reply to the following questions:



    • Are you using an Xbox one controller?


    If you are using an Xbox one controller, I suggest you to refer the steps in the article

    and see if that helps in resolving the issue.



    I would also suggest you to uninstall all the hidden devices under USB hive and check if you are able to connect the wireless adapter. Please follow the steps mentioned below to uninstall the hidden drivers:



    1. Press and hold the Windows + X key on the keyboard.
    2. Select Device manager.
    3. Click View tab.
    4. Select Show hidden devices.
    5. Expand Universal Serial Bus and remove all the greyed out devices. To remove the greyed out devices, right click on the device and select
      uninstall.
    6. Restart your computer.


    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.
