Taranis Qx7 No longer recognized

[B_RAD_028]

Hi i am looking for some help as my Taranis QX7 has suddenly stopped being recognized as a game controller by my PC, i have played 150hrs on liftoff so far without a problem and for some reason today this has happened.

When i turn on the radio and select "Mass Storage" i can access the SD card drive but if i select "USB" it makes a tone as if it is connected but nothing shows up in the device manager or even under game controllers, I have tried other USB cables also.

I also looked in Open TX and under simulator settings it says there are "no joysticks found"

Any advice would be appreciated.

Same here. Randomly happened last night. Was completely plug and play and worked fine and now nothing.

The solution is simply to navigate to

Device Manager>Select libusb-win32 devices>right click on Better_USB_HS>Update Driver>Browse My Computer for Driver Software>Click let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer>Now select "USB Input Device">Click Next

Now it should be working and recognizable. Just make sure your transmitter is connected to your computer and turned on before you do all these settings. Verified on Windows 10, 1903
