Switch Pro Controller not working on PC

[Noctosphere]

Hello world

I'm trying to play some games on my Ryujinx emulator
I didnt for a couple of week, but back then, everything was fine
However, right now, my computer doesn't seem to detect my switch pro controller anymore

When I plug it in, I hear the noise of windows detecting it. My Pro controller shows a LED, like if it was detected.
After a few seconds, windows emits a noise of a disconnecting device (the controller still plugged in)
After another 2-3 seconds, another noise is emited by windows, meaning a device got plugged in, but immediatly after, an error message says that a device couldn't be detected
Also, if i unplug my "undetected" controller, windows will emit another noise of a disconnecting device.

I tried to install this driver, but in the rar files, the installer contains 0 bytes, so it just wont launch
I tried what a website said, renaming the installer to give it the extension .bat but still nothing

Anyone can help me please?
Thanks

This isn’t exactly a fix (workaround suggestion) and is a dumb question..but have you tried restarting your PC?

Mine has a similar issues but with all USB devices where they will randomly disconnect and reconnect with only some fully working..and the rest getting that malfunction error

I think in my case it’s a hardware issue..but a few system resets gets everything back in shape for now
