Xbox Elite Collection 2 controller has "caught" inputs on PC for some motive.

Hello,

I lately acquired a secondhand Xbox Elite Collection 2 controller to make use of on my Home windows 10 PC. At first, it had a really badly unresponsive proper bumper, however with a little bit of WD-40 contact spray and folding the little plastic contact piece as soon as on itself, the problem appears (principally) solved.

Nevertheless, I've really been unable to really take a look at if it's fastened (not to mention play a recreation), as a result of now, the controller all the time sends an enter to the PC, similar to if a button was pressed on a regular basis. And I'd prefer to insist on the truth that it didn't try this earlier than the opening and the making use of of WD-40 contact spray. Testing by the xbox equipment app is inconceivable as a result of it tells me the controller is connecting/deconnecting/reconnecting on a regular basis, and when testing by the properties tab, the property window reveals me this:

As you possibly can see, when the controller is just laying on my desk, buttons 1 and three to eight are sending an enter for god is aware of why.

I’ve tried uninstalling the controller by the management panel, reconnecting it, updating W10, … nothing works.

My different, customary xbox one controller works simply high quality. It's not sending random inputs like this. The elite sequence 2 controller wasn't doing that at the beginning. One thing sooner or later occurred and now it's principally trashed. It doesn't work in video games both due to the fixed inputs being despatched. I haven't examined on my xbox one but however possibly it should magically repair the controller?

I’m out of concepts to repair this. Once more, making an attempt to replace firmware by the xbox equipment app doesn't work as a result of the bug renders the app unusable.

I’ve seen many individuals making posts on numerous boards complaining in regards to the xbox controllers sending fixed inputs to the PC generally even when disconnected afterwards (and I really had that points some years in the past with a 360 controller), however I’ve discovered no repair.

This controller was costly, even secondhand. I would love it to work with none difficulty however apparently that's an excessive amount of to ask. Any recommendation is appreciated. Thanks!
