Hello everyone, I'm a bit uncertain about where to ask this question, but I hope it's okay if it's not the right spot. I'm experiencing some strange problems when using the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller on PC games. I own two controllers—one special edition Smash Bros version and a regular wireless one. Since I switched to the standard wireless controller after Smash Bros. Ultimate was released, I no longer need to switch between them. But when connecting via the official Nintendo USB to USB-C cable (Bluetooth doesn't work on my PC), only the Smash controller is detected. In Steam, it only picks up the Smash one. I've tried using the standard controller multiple times, but it still doesn't work. Is there an explanation for this? Any suggestions or fixes would be really helpful. Thanks!
