I've got media PC running a very thin version of Windows 10 (basically all of the apps removed, privacy settings all turned off, etc...). I use it primarily for Kodi and emulators. I've also got an Xbox controller connected via BT which will randomly stop working unless I alt-tab to whatever program I'm running at the moment. The light on the controller doesn't blink, indicating its lost connection. It just straight up stops working unless I alt-tab.
I'm not using any special software for the BT connection or drivers for the controller, but having to grab the keyboard and alt-tab to make the controller work again is annoying. Does anyone know what causes this problem and how to resolve it? The controller is maybe 10 feet from the Wifi antenna of the machine. Having to alt-tab isn't specific to any one piece of software. It'll do it in any emulator or even in Kodi itself.
The machine is an i3 with the Gigabyte H110N motherboard and an Intel 7265 Wifi/BT card installed.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
