Windows 10 (pro 64bit build build #15063.296) Windows Shell Common.dll crash when trying to adjust game controllers

As of late when I try to access the properties page for a game controller Windows shell common.dll is crashing, it recovers eventually but this is causing issues with a game Assetto Corsa. it seems when Windows Shell Common is crashing I cannot configure any controls within Assetto Corsa making the thing effectively useless to me. 

The below link is actually very similar to my issue but this "USBJOYSTICK.cpl/USBJOY.cpl" file doesn't seem to exist within windows 10, at least not for me. So I can't try this fix.

I have included a photo below to show what imrefering too as well.

Driver reinstallation/repair/updating along with firmware updating on my wheel did not fix the problem so I am at an impass of what else I can do at this point.
