Microsoft Xbox Controller S v2 is recognized but doesn't work...?
I installed the drivers according to the readme, and everything went okay. When I plug the controller to the PC (Windows 10), it is recognized as a Microsoft Xbox Controller S v2. It's actually a S controller, so it's good. Still emulators or whatever program don't recognize the controller, same goes for the app (Xb2XInput): it always says "Wait for controller". What could it be?
Note: I have removed the original cable from this controller, since it was broken, and I put a known good USB cable to it. I soldered the red, white and green cable in the right places, and giving that this USB cable has 2 black wires, I put the last one (it was named 5 by the header) in the uppermost hole, the other black wire in the other hole. So I soldered 5 wires, leaving the yellow wire hole alone. I guess it's working, giving that Windows recognizes it as a Xbox controller S, still I don't get what's preventing it from working.
EDIT: I fixed this by updating automatically the drivers from the Device Manager, it's working as intended!
Thank you, i'm on Windows 7 and it didn't work for me either, but instead of updating driver automatically i had to update it manually, i selected "Generic USB Hub" and then XB2Input instantly recognized my S controller
