Windows 10: installing drivers for xbox 360 wireless controller reciever

Hi guys!


I'd like to install drivers for my xbox 360 wireless controller reciever. I have seen tutorials on youtube showing how to do this from the device manager. However, when I go to manually install the driver from a list of available drivers on my machine, there is no option for 'xbox 360 peripherals'. Have these drivers been removed in a windows update? Is it no longer supported by windows 10? There are no downloads available for windows 10 from microsoft, but maybe somebody knows where else I can download the necessary drivers....


Thank you all

Leith

Xbox 360 controller wont connect to wireless reciever


Greetings,

i've got my pc wireless reciever in the mail today so i can play video games on my computer while using the xbox 360 controller. But it is not connecting, i've downloading the driver on the pc wireless reciever trough the windows "Search on my computer for drivers" option. But no succes yet. The light on the controller just keeps flashing with no connection what so ever. Any help is really appreciated

This is the one i've recieved




and this is the driver i've installed




I have tested to see if the controller was broken, but its not since it does connect to my xbox 360 slim without an issue.

I have the same receiver.

Do you see the receiver show up in Device Manager? How are you trying to pair the controller?

Thanks for the respond, i'm trying to connect it by pressing the button on the reciever that makes the light flash on and off, than i quickly press the sync button on the controller. After doing that the controller lights makes circles but after a few second its just starts flashing on and off.


EDIT : my driver information is identical to the two pictures you have posted.
