Compiles fine for me in Arduino 1.8.19 and also the Arduino web editor I got my code to compile uninstalled the IDE, deleted all the leftover folders did a new install now my issue is it compiles it connects once but will not reconnect if you remove power. what am I doing wrong??

Please post your code between triple backtags ` so it shows correctly...
Your code compiles and I can pair it, but doesn't show up as a controller for me
I tried removing all of the custom vid/pid/serial etc stuff and it's working
Also, you set bleGamepadConfig.setAutoReport(true);, but then you manually call bleGamepad.sendReport(); I set auto report to false below I changed the delay to 20ms, which polls approx 50 times per sec
Try the code below and see if it works REMEMBER TO UNPAIR/REMOVE CONTROLLER FIRST

Also, your analogs won't move much as analog read will return a value from 0 to 4095, though you've set the setAxesMax to 0x7FFF which is 32767
You should change:
bleGamepadConfig.setAxesMax(0x7FFF); // Axes maximum value
to
bleGamepadConfig.setAxesMax(0x0FFF); // Axes maximum value
