another joystick question

[qwoi-*_]

sorry for all the questions about joysticks but recently i brought the thrustmaster T16000M FCS Hotas joystick and throttle for PC off Amazon. i played il-2sturmovik with it for 1 game to try it out and the throttle and joystick worked perfectly, however the next day i go to play and when i move the joystick or throttle nothing works!!!! i tried turning off and on the game and that didnt work, i checked the settings to see whether i had put it so i was using the mouse and not the joystick but no i was apparently using the joystick, so then i decided to tyr and change the key mapping and reset the joystick controls to see if anything happened and funnliy nothing happened the joystick was lighing up when i moved it but it wasnt even putting an input into the game(if that makes sense, i am confused and have literally no clue so please help much appreciated.

I imagine your HOTAS works fine in the windows configuration tool, in the TEST tab.

Download USB deview here, see if the hardware is listed.

Uninstall the white no longer used devices under file.

 

If the Joystick ID has been changed you can swap the order with JoyID:

PS it might be a good idea NOT to use the TARGET software.
