Xbox One Controller is detected on PC but does not work what to do?

I have played with the Xbox one controller for a long time and always worked immediately after plugging it in. Now the problem is when I plug in the controller lights the controller and is also recognized by the system as an "Xbox gaming device" but it does not work in games. I downloaded the "Xbox accessory" client from the store, the controller is connected but no button works. (At that time where I put the controller in, he always vibrated at the beginning, he does not anymore.) Can it be that the controller is probably defect or is there another solution. I also downloaded the "Xbox one driver" from "Chip". Drivers are currently from the controller is always displayed to me

As a first step, I recommend reinstalling the latest drivers. Uninstall the drivers from Chip and install the right drivers directly on this Microsoft website:

Also make sure you're on the latest version of Windows. If you always plug the controller into your PC, I recommend trying out different slots. If you have only one available slot, you can try using adapters to find out if the slot is broken.

The above linked Microsoft website also states that it is not recommended to use USB hubs or USB ports on the front of the PC. In contrast, the use of the PC rear side is recommended. Check your slot and change it if necessary.

In the device settings, you could also check if the controller has an error message. An error message may be present despite a correct display in the device overview. Open the option "Devices and Printers" and read the device properties. Under the Control Panel, you can check if the controller has an error code. Within these settings, the drivers can also be checked and removed or reinstalled.

Troubleshooting can also help. In the settings this can be done for your device. It is also best to change the batteries or charge the controller completely.

If all of the listed steps do not solve the problem, I recommend that you consult Microsoft support.
