  • @BlueAmpharos
    @BlueAmpharos Год назад +1

    I'm doing this by USB cable and it worked fine before, but ever since pairing it to the console I haven't been unable to un-pair it. When I plug it into the PC it was turned off, and it made the usual system sound so let me know it was connected, but it isn't working on my steam games I used another gamepad to play, which I had disconnected because once an upgrade I obtained required the RB button I had to switch to the Xbox One controller, as the old classic style gamepad has a sticky shoulder button making it unreliable for platformers and the original Xbox controller's D-pad is too stiff for 2D games that require precise directionals that I find the control stick awkward using with. The XBox One controller feels a lot better for these type of games as the D-pad is a lot less stiff and more comfortable to press frequently.
    Problem is, now that it's paired to a console I can't un-pair it, it detects the controller and begins charging but it still wants to turn on the Xbox One instead of the steam game I have open. I tried holding down the sync button and double-tapping it but neither method works.

    • @Prowister11
      @Prowister11 Год назад

      Hi! Not really a proper answer to your de-sync question BUT an easy fix for that is just to take the plug out of the Xbox so that when you're powering on the controller it cannot turn on the console, that should allow you to pair it to your PC :) Hope this helps :)

    For all you newbies to the Xbox controller, here some things I just learned.
    1. It will connect to your PC via cable or Bluetooth if you have Bluetooth capable.
    2. You’ll need a USB-C cable if you decide to use wired power.
    3. Or you can purchase 2 AAA batteries. Or you may need to purchase an XBox rechargeable battery pack.
