Controller bindings gone?
I was trying to setup my xbox controller but the "Default Context" and the other "Classic something" are gone I just have keyboard and mouse and joystick, anyway to recover the controller binds?

I use a HOTAS, Keyboard, Mouse and PS4 controller. If one of them isn’t connected then my control scheme won’t load (sometimes I forget to turn on the PS4 controller). So I gotta exit the game and restart it after connecting the missing peripheral.

As the first poster pointed out this might be your issue.

its so annoying that the problem still persists and especially when the game for some reason doenst recognize that my damn controller is plugged in and that im literally maneuvering the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ options with it. like nothing changed and this sht breaks its aggravating
