    So I recently got gamepass ultimate and started using a controller with my pc to play on the cloud.Everything was working fine until my controller disconnected itself and started holding whatever input I pressed before it disconnected.I've checked to see if its a problem with xinput by using the gamepad tester in control panel but after disconnecting the controller xinput stops showing input and the controller as per normal which makes me think it's something to do with windows itself.Help with this would be great as its very annoying trying to go to the windows search bar and not being able t

    Wireless Xbox One controller requires PIN for Windows 10.

    Hi,

    You will be asked for a PIN when connecting your wireless Xbox One controller via Bluetooth on Windows 10 if your Bluetooth drivers are not updated. It is also possible that you have to reset the controller to remove the PIN. To resolve your concern, restart
    your controller by following the steps below:

    • Power off the controller by pressing and holding the Xbox button on the controller for 6 seconds.
    • Press the Xbox button again to power it back on.
    • Connect your Xbox Wireless Controller to your PC using a USB cable or the Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows.

    You can also update your Bluetooth drivers by following the steps on this
    link
    .

    Keep us updated with the results after performing the suggested solutions above.
