All peripheral controls gone after update

[Dutchmill64]

In the DCS Main screen/Options screen/ the peripheral key bindings are correct and function well.

But as soon as the mission starts no input peripheral work. Not working: VFX-grip, SaitekX52 Throttle, TrackIr and Keyboard.

It was all going so well. As a very new user of DCS I just could not stop playing. However yesterday the ESC button stopped responding and despite a complex suggestion on You Tube as a cure - I am no Techy- it baffled me.  So quite by chance I found on the Controls Section and End Mission and banded my Escape Button to it - and it worked, well for awhile at least - a real solution needs to be found. That's not the end of it; additionally my main joystick Gladiator new- now only works for the rudder. I have cleared the control section for the stick and rebanded but still only the rudder works. As a test I plugged in my new Thurstmaster 16000 - why have one joystick when you can have two- and got the same response - only the rudder controls work. Strange that all my hardware works fine with MSFS2020.

My system -all new and recently purchased is Acer Preditor P317-54 i7 Intel 10thGen 16Gb RAM and !Tb SSD and 2070 Nvidia graphis

Recent software downlaods include Saudi region and Flaming Cliffs 3.

Any help suggestions would be appreciated after DCS MSFS202 is rather vanilla - but good.

Dutchmill why make a new thread with the same subject as mine(which you replied to) with the same title? You could have just bumped mine. Keep thing clean mate. We'll use this one now so we don't miss any solutions.

 

From the original thread.

Just updated to 2.7 and all my stick, throttle, and rudder controls have  been wiped, I tried to load my old saved file from last year but that does not work? Please tell me I don't have to go through and set them up again.

If you haven't already try unplugging them from the PC with DCS open and then plugging them back in again. 

 

Had similar whereby DCS 'lost' my stick, in that it wouldn't work in-game, but in the controls option (outside of a mission) all appeared to be OK. Unpluggint/replugging appeared to work.

Started the game up today and my saved throttle controls were there but not my stick controls, I tried plugging them both into different usb ports(on the PC, powered external etc) but it made no difference. I also tried, unplugging and plugging them back in them while in game, but it made no difference. My old control file will still not load. Makes no sense to me.
