T16000 joystick no longer recognized

[jldjs]

Was not having any problems playing game with my T16000 joystick before I tried to use the ME 410.  I started Quick Flight, selected the ME 410  and selected the profile I have been using for German AC, Bf109, to assign the key mappings.  Started the flight but my none of my joystick inputs were recognized!  Puzzled, I restarted the Quick FLight and went to flying a  Bf109K4 and the joystick was again not recognized!  Reloaded the game, tries again, and joystick is not recognized!  I don't know how to fix this, and yes the joystick is working in Win 11.

Need some help please.

This has happened to me before also with the same joystick. If you exit the game and unplug the joystick, restart your computer and reconnect it should work again.

Yes. Has happened few times and always fixed this way.

Thanks for reassuring replies!  Yes that worked, but it also worked by just unplugging it and replugging in another USB port while game was active!?!

whatever!  But, this “all” happened while assigning key mappings for a new plane (ME 210).  I wanted a new profile but just wanted to copy my Fp109 profile and modify it!  Somehow, not remembering how now, the joys stick bindings became labeled 1joy instead of 0joy!  Probably I selected Rename instead Custom Profile?.  Anyway, result was joystick bindings in the Fp109 and ME410 profiles resulted in 1joy labels!  After correcting all of those joystick was fine, except for throttle in the ME410 profile, I can’t assign it no matter how move the slider!  It does assign it to the slider but when trying a takeoff the engines do not throttle up or down!

Restarting the game and the throttle issue is resolved(?)
