Windows 10 not working with XBox One controller under Fusion

[BartP]

Trying to test out the new XBox streaming functionality to see how it works under Fusion but I can't get past the first step. I have the XBox One controller connected to the system using USB but I am hearing constant OS beeping noises that sound like it keeps loosing it's connection to the controller.  When I try to launch XBox streaming, it tells me that there is no controller connected.

Has anyone successfully used the XBox One controller under Windows 10 via USB?

Just tested in 8.1 VM and it doesn't work there either.  XBox One controller connected in VMWare Fusion clients is not working at all.

After some more testing:

USB 3.0 compatibility mode does not work.

USB 2.0 compatibility mode does work.

In USB 2 mode, both my 8.1 and 10.0 VM's work with the controller.

Hi,

great post, this was the solution.

We have to set the USB Compatibility to USB 2.
