When the screen pops up with the instruction to plugin your X52 -> plug it in. Run the installer (with the latest beta drivers for W10) Go to device manager and delete the X52 and USB devices with an ! sign (warning/not installed correctly) If this does not work: this is the long version which was the first way I found to get it working again: Now select the 1st option 'USB input device' or something similar NB: NOT the 2nd one with USB X52 in the name!!!

Choose 'search on my PC' and then 'let me pick' (2nd option) -> you get a list of 2 compatible devices Open device manager -> look for an USB input device with an ! After a lot of trial and error I found a fix. I tried to reinstall, but the installer just hangs and did not detect the X52 being plugged in. I cannot remember what I did to fix it though.Īfter the major Windows 10 update (build 1511) my Saitek x52 Pro didn't work anymore. The familiar part about this is I remember having this problem in the past and it was a simple fix to get the control panel working again. I tried installing them and they install just fine, but I still cannot access that control panel no matter what I do. Just so I was sure, I redownloaded the latest windows 10 圆4 drivers for the x52 and made sure they were the correct ones. I've tried running it as an admin, but that does not work either. I have tried deleting all of the registry keys for this device and uninstalling the programming software and reinstalling. I have tried installing the latest drivers, rolling back to the ones I had before when it did work, but that didn't do anything. It does not show the saitek x52 control panel with all of the configuration options. I can access windows' generic version of the device's control panel by going to the windows control panel > devices and printers > then right clicking on the x52 and going to properties, but all that shows is the button test page and it has a calibration page. I really need it to work so I can configure settings and get the few extra buttons that are useful, plus in the case that I need the option to change the sensitivity and dead zones then I would have the option to. I can right click on the icon and have the menu open, but if I click on the control panel option, it doesn't do anything more. However, today, I tried to access the control panel for the device and it will not open. There I would be able to configure things like the time on the MFD, the time zones, buttons, sensitivity, etc. I could access the device's control panel by right clicking on the icon in the taskbar and it would show up. I have a Saitek x52 controller, and in the past I would install the drivers and everything would work just fine.
