I purchased a brand new Xbox wireless controller. It paired with my steam deck easily but it will not connect and the “X” button on the controller keeps flashing. I’ve hit every button on the controller and can’t get it to actually connect. I’ve also rebooted the steam deck.
Any help would be appreciated…
Absolutely this. I didn’t have either of those, but successfully used a Windows virtual machine on my Mac to do it
I’ll was thinking about trying a windows VM on my Ubuntu laptop. Sounds like that may work.
I spent a whole evening trying to get the app to update my controller in a VM. The controller itself was working fine in the VM, but the update app just refused to recognize it…
In the end I used my PC at work, which has Windows installed…
