    Xbox Controller Isn't Registering Correctly on Windows 11


    I've used Xbox controllers on my computer for a few years for gaming and never had any issues. However, yesterday I tried to connect 2 controllers at the same time and ever since then I haven't been able to get them to connect correctly. My Xbox One controller connects, but none of the inputs work, and it doesn't show up in the Xbox Accessories app. No big deal, I'll just use my Xbox X/S controller. However, it seems like I'm having the weirdest issue with the X/S controller.So if I connect it with Bluetooth, it shows up as "Xbox Wireless Controller", but it doesn't seem to actually register a

    Xbox One Controller Wired Connection Registers as Generic Controller

    Hi Trey,

    Using a micro-USB cable is one way on how you can connect your Xbox One Controller to a Windows 10 PC. Once connected, it will install the most current drivers needed for your controller. Regarding your concern, have you tried using another micro-USB
    cable? If not, we suggest that you uninstall first the current driver for your Xbox One Controller on your computer, restart, and then connect the controller using another USB cable.
    There's a possibility that it affects the computer to get the correct driver for your controller.

    If your Xbox One Controller still treated as the generic controller, we recommend that you manually install the driver by performing the following steps:

    • Press Windows Key + X and choose Device Manager from the list.
    • Once Device Manager opens, locate and right-click Xbox One Controller.
    • From the menu choose Update Driver Software.
    • Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
    • Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
    • Locate Microsoft Xbox One Controller on the list and click
      Next
      to install it. If you can’t locate Microsoft Xbox One Controller driver, you might have to uncheck
      Show compatible hardware option.

    Let us know if that works for you.

  4. Xbox Controller Isn't Registering Correctly on Windows 11

    Printer isn´t working after latest update.

    After the latest update from Windows, my Canon Pixma ip6600 printer isnt working. In Device Manager it shows up as working properly but when I go to print it isn´t listed as an option in any programs. Troubleshoot suggests it´s a USB 2 printer on a USB
    3 port and that that´s the problem but that cant be since it worked fine before the update. I´ve tried to uninstall and plug it back in but that doesn´t work either.
