If for some reason the controllers don't work. Try the following steps.

1. Restart windows, and launch it again.
2. If it still is not working. And you have previously used In-Home-Switching, Try removing the ScpDriverInterface that In-Home-Switching installs. You can use the installer that came with it to uninstall it, or get it Here.

If the streamer just starts and stops immediately, try the following steps.
