If Microsoft wants to sell Flight Simulator software then their OS department needs to ensure that the hardware/controllers can function within the software environment. There are two parts that trouble me: a) Windows disengaged my third-party firewall and enabled its own firewall, and b) the X52 has been working on Windows for months on the same USB port (then it started needing restarts and driver re-installs, no nothing). Thankfully that card works fine in my new 10700k build running Win10 Pro, using the latest logitech supplied X52 Pro drivers. I ended up buying a pci-e adapter card which sports a USB EHCI chipset years ago, which solved that incompatibility problem.
BUT.years ago I found that its USB chipset, at least in the one I own, is incompatible with USB XHCI.period! Even though XHCI 'supports' USB 2.0, plugging my X52 into such a XHCI port always hung my computer. Just finished a MSFS flight around Kenai Fjords in Alaska and everything about my 'stick worked perfectly.
Get a fully integrated hands on throttle and stick flight controller. Coordinate your flight plan with clock and stopwatch function, plus an adjustable handle to accommodate a wide range of hand sizes. No problems here with my 2006 vintage Saitek X52 Pro in Windows 10. X52 defines precise flight simulator operation, employing a multifunction LCD for easy access to an astounding 282 programmable commands.
