  2. Since i have windows 11 my Wireless Xbox controller doesn t work anymore with Xbox Game Pass Games on PC

    Since i have a new PC and now Windows 11, my wireless Xbox Controller doesn t work anymore with any Xbox Game Pass Games. I already tried to use it while pluged in, closed Steam and every other Programm while playing. The game "recognizes" the Controlle since the Buttons it shows (for like closing the game) changes from "Space" to "A"-Controller Button when i press anything on the Controller. It just doesn t take any input from the Controller. I also checked the Driver and even manually changed the driver from the Controller (shown as XINPUT-compatible HID device) to wireless Xbox (one) Controller.

    Hi! I use the adpter that was with the controller. I updated the controller with the Xbox accessory app and its still not working.

    Its still the same. If i press something on the controller the button tooltip show the controller buttons and not the keyboard anymore, but it still doesn t recognize the input from the controller.

    Xbox One controller being recognized as a 360 Controller

    Hi Stephan,

    There are several reasons why your Xbox One controller is detected as an Xbox 360 controller by your PC. It is possible that the controller is not updated or if you previously used an Xbox 360 controller on the PC, it is still detecting its drivers instead
    of the Xbox One controller drivers. To properly isolate your concern, please clarify the following information:

    • Have you used an Xbox 360 controller on the same computer before?
    • Does the error message occur on all of the games that you play?
    • Have you tried to update the controller?
    • Are you using an Xbox One Elite controller?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you update the controller by following the steps on this
