Valve launched their new game Aperture Desk Job which is a mini game set within the Portal universe and used for showing off the Steam Deck controls and their features while also working with other game controllers too. Meanwhile, several players are experiencing the Aperture Desk Job Xbox or PS5 controller not working which is pretty much irritating.
Now, if you’re one of them, don’t worry because we’ve mentioned a couple of possible workarounds for you that should gonna help you out. It’s needless to say that next-generation games like Aperture Desk Job do require precision control so that players can shoot accurately on the head or chest to kill the zombies or aliens. Now, the problem is that even though the keyboard and mouse input works fine, the console controller (analog sticks) doesn’t do well enough.
How to Fix Aperture Desk Job Xbox or PS5 Controller Not Working Guide
To make it more real or feel practical while using the controllers, players can set vibration feedback for the same. But it’s quite unfortunate that while using the Xbox or PS5 console controller, it gets disconnected consistently or quite often which is nothing but frustrating. In some cases, even though the controller seems connected, it doesn’t work at all which is another issue for the Aperture Desk Job players.
According to some reports online, there are a couple of possible issues appearing in terms of the controller such as controller not working, controller suddenly stopping working or the controller getting disconnected, or controller not detected at all. These reports have been claimed by the affected players that even a PlayStation controller or Xbox controller.
Initially, it seems that the game has some bug that eventually prevents or conflicts with the controllers from running properly. Well, there is a workaround available that has already fixed this particular controller-related issue for some affected players. So, we’ve mentioned it below and recommend our readers to try it out once. However, it’s worth noting that this workaround may not gonna work for everyone.
Now, whether you’re using a PS4 or PS4 controller and linked up with DS4Windows but somehow it keeps saying that controller disconnected or please reconnect a controller then make sure to do something to check whether it has been fixed or not.
- Just properly connect your PS4/PS5 controller > Link up with DS4Windows.
- Now, make sure to open the DS4Windows Settings menu > Enable the “Hide DS4 Controller” option.

As mentioned already, this particular solution did work for a couple of affected Aperture Desk Job players who were facing issues with the controller. However, if this workaround didn’t help you out, try updating your game to the latest version. Alternatively, you can try out some other third-party controller support such as reWASD or Xpadder, Pinnacle Game Profiler, or Keysticks.
