I use an Xbox One Controller with the Microsoft Xbox Wireless Adapter on a PC-Windows 10 Bedrock Beta 1.2.14.3 without a problem. Also, I can connect the Xbox One Controller via USB cable to the Windows 10 PC. On another Windows 10 PC, I am using a USB PS4 Controller to play Minecraft Bedrock Beta 1.2.14.3. Both PCs are running Windows 10 Pro, version 1709, Build 16299.309.
The issue of X Box 360 controllers not working or no longer working after an update on Windows 10 has been reported before at MCPE-17030, MCPE-31330, MCPE-31949, and MCPE-39572, but it seems like the issue has not been reproducible. The issue of the mouse interfering with the controller was also reported at MCPE-31743, but again, Mojang was not able to reproduce the problem. If the developers cannot reproduce the issue, they won't be able to do anything about it.
For now I'll set this ticket's status to "plausible." We will need more information about how to reproduce the problem to in order to confirm it as a bug.
@Pierre Andrivon: thanks for replying, and I'm glad to hear that reinstalling Windows resolved your issue. In most cases that would lead us to resolve a report like this as "Cannot Reproduce." However, since you've made clear that only Minecraft Bedrock Edition has had issues supporting the controller after Windows updates, I am going to leave this ticket open for Mojang to make a decision on.
- For reference, the other tickets reporting similar problems were
MCPE-17030,MCPE-31330,MCPE-31949, andMCPE-39572, and thenMCPE-31743on mouse-controller interference.
Not experiencing this issue.
Are you using a wired controller or a wireless one?
