I'm trying to play Dark Souls 3 on my PC and my controller is not detected at all. My controller is able to navigate Steam's Big Picture mode just fine, so I don't think this is a problem with my controller or the receiver. It works in other games as well. What can I do?

The game does not handle multiple controllers well, so another plugged in controller may be taking priority.
Make sure you unplug any other controllers/usb devices, like flight sticks, joysticks, USB cameras, USB keyboards, then restart the game.
2I was able to fix this by:
Going to Big picture mode > settings (cog icon) > controller settings > untick all except "guide button focuses steam"
Start the game and it works flawlessly.
