Brief description of the issue:

Every time I start the sim I have to redo my controller settings for two Logitech 3D Pro Joysticks. It reverts to some of my previous controls I have validated but with no primary flight controls and power controls and not the default controls (I have never cleared primary controls and saved). The controller settings are also buggy and acting up when I select validate. sometimes the window to assign controls doesn’t close when I select validate and I have to select cancel instead and sometimes it glitches and gets stuck. It started acting up when I added another joystick to the equation.

NB: In the image you will see there is no primary flight controls and other controls are missing.

Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:

Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:

with two joysticks edit the controls and restart the sim and the controls wont be saved and some settings will be missing.

I seem to recall seeing a similar thread about this in the last few weeks. I believe the issue was have two identical sticks in use at the same time, but if you rename one of them (in Windows I Imagine) then this would overcome the issue. It sounds like MSFS is using the device name rather to identify it rather than a unique identifier.

Thanks for the reply how do I rename one of the sticks?

It’s a bit buggy with duplicate devices atm.
