It's an Ultimate 2C wired. It's like they aren't properly implemented wtf?
The problem is Xinput vs Direct input (D mode). Direct input allows low level access to the various buttons of a controller, it is mainly used by Sony. Xinput input is simplified, however it doesn't allow the same low level access for configurable button. Xinput was developed by Microsoft and is the defacto standard, that's why a lot of controllers only support it, the 8bitdo pro series is a rare exception.
TLDR its Microsoft's fault
