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

    Thank you Ziero!

    This solution has solved my issue in a few simple steps which even multiple contacts to Microsoft couldn't fix it.

    Hi Derrick,

    Your solution does not work, as soon as I update the driver manually from device manager, I am prompted to restart the computer.

    Once the restart is complete the driver goes back to what it was.

    Is there a patch or new driver that support newer xbox conrollers ???

    Need help ASAP!

    I have the same problem. I calmly played through bluetooth until I connected it by wire and updated the gamepad firmware. Now through bluetooth is not defined as a xbox one controller (xbox accessories see it correctly). The solution with installing the required driver on top does not work, since a reboot is required (nothing works without it), and after a reboot, the driver returns to its place. And again, nothing is determined. Has anyone found a solution? Yes, all the latest updates for Windows 10 and the controller are installed.

    Same and no updates? No way to even revert the drivers if you have the controller for PC and don't have a console? Why have a PC Bluetooth option if you are not going to support it.
