Xbox one Controller identified as Bluetooth LE Xinput Device

Hi,

I recenlty got a new controller and went ahead and updated the controller firmware through the XBOX accessories app, after the update however the controller is not recognised as Xbox one controller in Bluetooth mode rather as Bluetooth LE Xinput device.

The issue that concerns me is, that FIFA only allows genuine controllers, and since in Bluetooth mode it is not recognised as genuine the FIFA is not supporting the controller.

I have manually tried changing the driver for this device from device manager but it is not working. I want to know if there is a patch that can fix my controller

identification issues ??

please find the screenshot for reference

    Hello. Thanks. I have tried this and it started to work. However it seems that once it turn off the computer after the restart, i have to do it all over again.

    Please note that i am using a razer huntsman analog. i dont know if that has something to do with it.

    The solution posted only works for Windows 10. Starting Windows 11the targeted driver is truly not compatible. Hilarious that Microsoft would have such a massive gap in capability and continue to push the Xbox App so hard. For now, will just have to use the emulator or painstakingly remap all of the inputs within the game.

    Trust me the posted solution does not work in windows 10 either.

    Following the 'solution' you are asked to restart the computer and as soon as you do it reverts back to Bluetooth LE XINPUT

    Seems amazing it is easier to connect a Sony PS4 controller to windows than one of Microsofts own devices. Well done MS!

    I just bought Elite 2 and the problem is FRUSTRATING.
    I will probably need to return it!

    This is a VERY expensive controller, yet MSFT scr*ws us over.

    Unbelievable!
