So i feel like an idiot but maybe somebody els is having the same issue so im going to try and explain it here.

So i was trying to get the Pro Micro working on windows 10 (it showed up under device manager and i could program it as a controller it just woulden show up as a gamepad) but it don't show up under "devices and printers" so i thought it's not woriking and tried to find a solution and spent several hours looking for this "problem"

Today i found the "Game Controller" setting window and there is the Arduino Leonardo controller fully functional.
SolutionShow
press your windows key and search for USB game controller and chose the Set up USB game controllers from the list.
Do this before you unistall and reinstall and spend hours on a problem thats possible not there.

Hopefully this will help somebody
