initializing emulated Xbox 360 controller... connection error: bus not found

[RiskiVR]

I installed everything that was required for this to work. So when I run XJoy.exe I get this:

XJoy v0.2.0

initializing emulated Xbox 360 controller...
connection error: bus not found

This usually indicates you don't have ViGEm installed or installed properly. Please ensure that you have followed the setup instructions on the main page

i downloaded and installed the ViGEm and had the same problem, do i need to copy and paste the ViGEm somewhere?

[sam0x17]

you might want to try an older version, it's possible ViGEm has been updated to where it is incompatible with XJoy. If so please let us know here so I can update the README

it's still not working, i'm getting the same error on my laptop

I don't have a windows machine at the moment to investigate this but hopefully someone from the community will.

I found the issue! Installing the drivers doesn't work until you go through the ViGEm Bus Setup, then it will work.
