Controller not working/mind of its own on PC

I have recently encountered something which I cannot fix for the life of me in regards to my controller not working on FC26. The inputs are either delayed, do not work or the controller simply does what it wants. This happens straight from the splash screen so is both on the menus and in game. I have attempted to repair the game multiple times, restart my PC and even uninstalled and reinstalled which has not worked. Funnily enough it is not a controller issue as this works perfectly on other games so what is it about FC26 that suddenly has become unplayable/not supporting any controller inputs on PC? This issue has only happened in the last couple of days as it was absolutely fine before that.

    Generally it is something controller side causing issues like this B7OK​ so troubleshooting it is first thing to try.

    I see, I will try when I am able to. Another thing that may relate to the issues is that I will try and click through stuff on the menu (as if I’m using keyboard and mouse) yet it won’t register and then snap my cursor back to the top left of the screen. I did unplug my mouse once before when in game and didn’t seem to make a difference but there wouldn’t be something in the back end/files causing the game and the controller not to work together right?

    Try removing the mouse when in-game B7OK​ to see if it makes a difference.

    Can you try using it both wired and using bluetooth to see if there is any difference in how it reacts.

    Hey Darko,

    Using a standard Xbox One controller and I did try that but of course I can’t take out my mouse/monitors. Any unnecessary ones like a charger I unplugged though, think it’s something to do with the game though because I would then load up another game and it would work perfectly with the controller :/

    Hey B7OK​ what controller are you having issues with?

    When the issue occurs do you have other USB devices plugged in, no harm removing all and testing it again.
