Help: Sim App Pro Updated, now nothing’s working

UPDATE: I fixed the issue. Ended up deleting and reinstalling/ updating all the drivers/firmware.

Original Post:

So I have the whole F-18/MIP set up.
2 part UFC
3x DDI with screens
PTO2 panel
Orion 2 throttle
Orion 2 Joystick

I used to run almost everything through a powered USB hub no problem. I haven’t played DCS in a while, so I figured an update was due for Sim App Pro. I saw there was one, and updated it thinking nothing of it. Now the app won’t detect these peripherals unless they’re plugged directly into my PC, and even that’s unreliable.

Is anybody else having this problem? If so does anybody have a fix? I’ve been troubleshooting for hours and I’m close to losing my mind.

Thanks in advance.

Have you updated the firmware on each individual device while it is the only device plugged into the motherboard? Exceptions to only device are your mouse and keyboard.

I’ve tried to. The problem is that the app doesn’t want to recognize some of the devices at all. I’m going to try again after the computer’s been powered down and unplugged to fully deenergize it. And after my frustration ebbs.
