xinputhid.sys green screen of death

New folder - Google Drive

like I say varied results - but im trying

let me know if you get them working

use device manager to update the xbox driver ( xbox peripherals )and the game controller driver ( human interface devices )

it just tells me best drivers are already installed

use let me pick and have disk]

doesn't seem to work i have to plug in the controller for that to show up in device manager then if i try updating or uninstalling the drivers in device manager i get green screen screen

There may be a few options to try.

If not using xbox:

See if running this administrative Powershell command makes any difference:

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxApp | Remove-AppxPackage

I used safe mode (hold down RIGHT shift while using start menu to reset the PC)

this way the driver is not being used

then you can uninstall easier - i will automatically reinstall but after this it wont green screen again for some reason ??

not sure why

but it this will allow you to start trying different drivers

this is so infuriating. I was able to pick from the folder and update the drivers in safe mode, it said successfully installed, didn't seem to really do much it was just a click then instantly said success

still green screens. I literally only want to play 2 games, call of duty and forza horizon 4

i followed this video and im back to gaming, no crashes

just had reply from Microsoft insider hub

they are working on the fix

:)

Just to let you guys know...

I had the same problem with the Xinputhid.sys...

what i did to "solve/bypass" the problem was:

Boot in safe mode

Remove the Xinput (Xbox Controller) Driver in the DEVICE MANAGER

Go to "C:\Windows\System32\drivers"

Delete or rename to .bak the file "Xinputhid.sys".

Get to the same place on your "Windows.OLD" folder - "C:\Windows.old\WINDOWS\System32\drivers"

Copy the "Xinputhid.sys" from there to the actual Windows folder.

Restart using the SHIFT key to enter in advanced boot options.

When at boot options, select option 7 (to DISABLE enforced DRIVER SIGNATURE).

When the system boots, plug or connect your controller and it will install and work.

Did this and still good.

To those willing to get crazy, u can disable the ENFORCED DRIVER SIGNATURE "permanently", until the fix arrives.

Good Luck
