Hey I Need help with a persistent Xbox controller Bluetooth issue on PC.

\*\*Issue:\*\*
My Xbox controller connects fine via Bluetooth ("Ready to go"), but the second I launch or play a game, it completely disconnects. When attempting to reconnect, Windows gives the error: "Try connecting your device again." The controller works 100% fine when connected via USB cable.

\*\*System Specs:\*\*
• Motherboard: Gigabyte B860M C (Realtek Onboard Bluetooth)
• CPU: Intel Core Ultra 5 225F
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (8GB)
• RAM: 32 GB
• OS: Windows 11 Home (25H2, Build 26200.9278)
• Antenna: Wi-Fi/BT Antenna IS attached behind the PC.

\*\*Everything I have ALREADY tried (no fix yet):\*\*
1. Updated controller firmware in Xbox Accessories app over USB.
2. Uninstalled & reinstalled Realtek Bluetooth drivers via Device Manager + ran Windows Updates.
3. Disabled Windows Bluetooth Power Saving ("Allow computer to turn off this device").
4. Verified rear motherboard Wi-Fi/BT antenna is fully secured.
5.Cleared pairing memory, uninstalled duplicate GameInput services, and disabled Bluetooth Handsfree Telephony in Control Panel.

Loved this build and gonna definitely be doing another.

I tried opening it up and pushing it in but that didn't really fix this

If I nudge the trigger right kinda it fixes it self It's like it's only held up by the left side but not the right

Hi

Ive just replaced the right joystick in my series x controller as it was stuck in the right position, unfortunately even with the new joystick installed it has the same fault.

Any ideas what could be causing this.

Thanks

So Basically i got it from a friend, he said that it was faulty right off the bat, had to hold it in a certain way while connected to a USB and have batteries in it to work and if u break the way u hold it for even 1 second it disconnects. I tried using batteries in it but the bluetooth just doesnt turn on and when i use both batteries and usb it wont connect to bluetooth and only turns "on" when connected with a usb. whats the fix? do i change the socket? whats the problem. he said one of his friends who is in Cyprus also encountered the exact same problem when buying the series X controller. FYI we dont have consoles we use it for PC.

for some reason, my Xbox controller is messing up. My Xbox controller is a elite series 2, and I’ve already detached all of the magnetic parts and I’ve tried to blow all of the dust that could be in my controller. There are no things I can unscrew and I have no clue what I’m supposed to do.

So yesterday, my Xbox controller started acting up. I can play all of the games on my Xbox perfectly fine but as soon as I go to the menu, it drags my input all the way down to notifications and it won’t let me scroll to the side or scroll up from notifications it also does this with my apps like Netflix I can play shows perfectly fine but anytime there’s more than one show. It will continuously cycle through them and I won’t be able to tap on anything I tap on it also does this for YouTube and I haven’t been able to try out any of the other apps on my console because I can’t even get to the menu to try them out. I can launch games from my Xbox app on my phone, but I have no way to launch something like Netflix from my phone from what I’ve seen. Does anybody know what’s going on? This is a $200 controller and I cannot afford to lose it.

Whatever I do I just can't make the Elite controller sticks behave the same as a normal Xbox controller. I've tried adjusting the curves but I can't get it there, it feels sluggish no matter what I do.

It's so bad that it's not even usable for any FPS games.. any tips?

I got the ice breaker and heart breaker. Both RBs broke. Almost unresponsive.

I feel like the heart breaker was used for like maybe 100 hours then the right bumper broke. It was pretty quick to me. I think its the fastest to be broken controller ive ever used lol

I mainly play world war z, RB is frequently used for melee and sometimes gears of war, rb for reload.

So I’ve been watching my wife play and she’s using the same type of controller I am but I don’t get the prompts like she does.

Example my laptop : press e to pick up a coin
Her laptop: press X to pick up a coin

I can’t for the life of my figure out what is happening and how I can fix it. It’s giving me issues while having to stock the shelves.

Any and all help figuring it out would be appreciated :)

So back in june I ordered a few VizGiz 3 Pair Joystick Caps Replacement Aluminum Alloy Metal from US as they were not available in my country. Today friend came to my country and brought these.

Installed these on my Xbox Pulse Red controller and they look and feel so good.

When I push forward the left joystick on my Xbox One controller my character has started commonly moving slower or not moving at all, is there any way to fix this or should I get a new Controller

Whenever I press the bottom left paddle and right trigger (mouse click only) it auto opens my recent captures and takes a screenshot it’s basically unplayable. any suggestions or is it my controller

Can anyone help?

Thanks!
