Xbox One controller on Windows 10 not working properly

Solution 1:

You can try resetting the configuration of the controller in Windows

  • Open Run (Windows Key+R)
  • Type joy.cpl and Enter
  • On the Game Controllers Window, click 'Properties' (Button)
  • Go to the Settings tab
  • Click 'Reset To Default' (Button)

This solved my problem for now. If I continue to have problems, I will be back.

On the Test Tab of that window. I was able to see that my left analog stick was acting strange. It was locking to only the corners of the box and not traveling anywhere in between.
