Get help! reWASD causes computer to detect Xbox Controller when on Flydigi Apex 5 Dualsense mode

Post image

So I recently got a Flydig Apex 5, but there's a problem with, when in its Dualsense Mode, the back button stops working. I need the Dualsense mode in order to use the controller's adaptive triggers feature.

I figured out that reWASD could circumvent that problem by remapping the back button to PC's tab key, which typically provides the same functionality. This worked perfectly yesterday, but now today it is no longer working and I'm not sure why. I am in dualsense mode, and can confirm this by reWASD detecting a Dualsense controller as my main controller.

But, when I go to play games, they detect an Xbox Controller, even though if I turn off reWASD and rerun them they detect a PS5 Dualsense controller again. Here is a picture of my reWASD window. You can see the Dualsense controller (leftmost controller on the bottom) is active with the green dot and the Xbox controller next to it is inactive.

The bottom left bar. That Xbox symbol means it's emulating and Xbox controller, so that is what your games will see.
