Windows 10: how can I use my Nintendo Switch controller on the Windows 10 store games?

I recently built my PC and the GPU came with a free trial of the Xbox Gamepass, but now I want to play with my friends locally but the games don't recognize the controller and I already tried linking them to steam, how do I make them work?

Nintendo Switch Pro Controller not being detected by Windows 10

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We appreciate your effort on this. We understand that when you connect the Nintendo Switch Pro controller to the computer, it is not being detected, we will look into this for you.



However, it would be great if you can help us with the details requested below:

• Does the Nintendo Switch Pro controller gets detected in any other computer?
  
• Were you able to use the Nintendo Switch Pro controller earlier on your current computer?
  
• Is any other USB Device detected on your computer?
  
• Do you see any Unknown device or a yellow yield sign on any device in Device Manager?
  
• May I know the troubleshooting steps that you have tried so far?
  

To check for unknown devices, you can press Windows key + X, and select
Device Manager.



If you see any Unknown device or a device with yellow yield, right click on the device and select
Update Driver.



However, we would also suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article

Error: “USB Device not recognized” when you try to access a USB external hard drive. except Method 1 and 2 and check if that helps in resolving the issue.



Let us know how it goes.
