game freezes when any usb disconnects or connects
Since the latest patch, if i get too excited in a match and swing my controller or whatever and it disconnects for even a millisecond, the game will freeze for at least an entire minute and kick me from the lobby when it wakes up, understandably so. At first i thought it had to do with steam input but it made no difference on or off.

I figured I'd wait for a patch and continued playing with keyboard until I unplugged my headset when it was full charge and it froze in the same way, now i'm just wondering if anybody has had this type of issue and what you did to make it go away. It doesn't happen on any other game i play and sf6 is the only program that freezes when this happens, the rest of the pc is fine and responsive.

edit: Even though none of these devices were connected to it, it turns out the USB hub at the back of my PC was the problem. Disconnecting it lets me play with no freezes when connecting/disconnecting anything.

edit 2: its back

Do you still have this issue. I havent played Sf6 in a couple weeks and came back to the game not playing well with the same thing

Yeah, still having this issue on the latest update.

I can't believe it wasn't obvious to me, but I forgot about my USB hub connected to the back of my PC. Guess I didn't think about it because the stuff that I usually connect/disconnect weren't connected to them but it mattered anyway.

After taking off the hub I can freely connect/disconnect anything now, so if you have any usb hubs try taking it off.

Last thing I can recommend is also unplugging any USB extenders or converters. I just wouldn't be surprised at this point.

Cheers for the recommendation, It ended up being my keyboard in the end. Only accidentally discovered it when I was messing with the windows controller window (which was also freezing) and unplugging my keyboard (it instantly unfroze)

Still weird that this is only affecting street fighter and not any of the other games that use controllers or FFB driven steering wheels.

Elden Ring had a similar problem. Google the solutions for that re. disabling the Windows device enumerator service.

Appreciate the recommendations from you all! SeeNoWeevil I looked it up and disabled the enumerator service, unfortunately didn't fix the issue. But I appreciate the idea and have noted it away for any future issues.

I also tried with no keyboard and even no mouse, no external hubs, all disconnected before game, and only the xbox controller, still no dice.

I also did not have this issue at launch. Played SF6 fine for weeks. Took a month off, came back, and no this.

Im assuming you are using a wireless receiver for the xbox controller. Maybe try changing the port its connected to?

If you turn off steam overlay then it gets a bit better.
