We've added it our backlog for Game Bar and the Accessories app.

We've investigated this a bit and yes, there are numerous issues to be addressed.īoth of these are basically feature requests, we've never shown charging status, so we'd need to add that capability. Does this thing just not work and maybe the battery pack is fine? Is there really no way to see your controller's battery percentage in Windows? There's no charging LED on the cable or controller itself.ĭid I just get a DOA battery? Or am I missing something to get this thing charging on Windows?ĮDIT: Just tried with the two AA batteries included with the controller which I assume are brand new (they were sealed) and it still shows 'HID compliant game controller: Critical' in the game bar app. I've had this thing plugged in for hours and it doesn't seem like it's charging at all (although I can't find any icon or indication in Windows showing that it even is charging when plugged in). The 'Xbox Game Bar' app shows no battery or charging indicator when the controller's plugged in, but when connected via Bluetooth it shows an empty battery icon that says 'HID compliant game controller: Critical' when you hover over it. There's no battery percentage or lightning icon indicating that it's actually charging. The 'Xbox Accessories' app it had me download shows no indication of battery life when the controller is connected via Bluetooth, and when it's wired it just says 'Battery level: Plugged in'. The controller works great wired and via Bluetooth, but I can't seem to get the battery pack to charge. With it, I got the 'Rechargeable Battery + USB-C Cable' which I gather is the new version of the Play & Charge Kit. So I just bought a new Carbon Black Xbox Controller to replace my old wired 360 controller for gaming on my Windows 10 PC.
