Hello everyone. I just finished my first build and it’s really great except for one issue—I can’t connect my controller. I’m using a USB Bluetooth adapter for an Xbox One controller. It works a few times when I unplug and plug it in while holding the pairing buttons. It’s frustrating because I end up playing games with the mouse and keyboard instead. The adapter appears in devices, sometimes shows a driver error, but usually doesn’t. It looks like a software problem, though I’ve only found the Xbox Accessories app suggesting “please attach a device,” which isn’t very useful. If anyone has experience or suggestions, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks for reading!

It functions properly, though it remains an unidentified gadget. I also overlooked noting that it operated smoothly on my previous computer.

It seems the controllers aren't syncing properly over Bluetooth. I thought they required updates, but updating via a wired connection worked perfectly. Appreciate the effort, though—I guess I wasn’t paying attention.
