    when playing games on my pc even through the xbox app my pc things that my xbox controller is a mouse. this happens with all of my controllers wired or not. i have tried restarting my pc multiple times but doesn't work. even if i unplug the mouse it still continues to think it and my controller should do the same thing. the left joystick moves like the mouse so for instance in ark survival evolved, when i should be able to walk forward/backwords, it instead looks around and i cant move. this isnt just happening on my xbox games though, it does the same on steam aswell and i cant play any of my

    Can’t connect Xbox one controller to pc

    Hello SubieTY,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    Initially, we need to pair the device to show up in the list while connected through Bluetooth. Check with the below mentioned steps and see if it works.


    Hope it helps.

    PC hast stopped recognizing controllers

    Hi H2OMelon, welcome to the Microsoft community, my name is Bruno Leonel, I am happy to help you.

    I understand that you are having problems regarding the Xbox controller in your Windows not working properly and I am very sorry for this discomfort. I will try to help you in the best possible way.

    I suggest the following steps:

    Press Windows + X keys and choose Device Manager.

    Click once on USB Controllers;

    click Action and after Add Legacy Hardware;

    Click next;

    Click Install hardware that I manually select from a list (advanced);

    Select USB Controllers;

    select a controller from the left list;

    select the option available from the right list;

    Go ahead and wait for completion.

    Restart your computer and check if the behavior persists.

    If the above steps don't work, visit the device manufacturer's website and look for the specific USB driver or chipset driver for your device.

    Xbox App

    Search for the Microsoft app "Xbox Accessories" in the Microsoft Store and install it.

    Open the App.

    Connect the Xbox X Wireless Controller using a USB cable or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

    When the controller is connected, you will see the message "Update required" if there is an update required. Install the update.

    To learn more about error code 43, I recommend you to refer to the article below, try the mentioned troubleshooting steps and see if it helps.

    I hope I helped, see you later!
