Xbox One controller being recognized as a 360 Controller

Hi Stephan,

There are several reasons why your Xbox One controller is detected as an Xbox 360 controller by your PC. It is possible that the controller is not updated or if you previously used an Xbox 360 controller on the PC, it is still detecting its drivers instead
of the Xbox One controller drivers. To properly isolate your concern, please clarify the following information:

• Have you used an Xbox 360 controller on the same computer before?
• Does the error message occur on all of the games that you play?
• Have you tried to update the controller?
• Are you using an Xbox One Elite controller?

In the meantime, we suggest that you update the controller by following the steps on this

link.

 

Ps3 controller for windows

So, I were able to use controller normally by downloading drivers. Ones it didnt work properly on a game. I tried fixing it but ended up somehow deleting "xbox 360 controller for windows" option from device manager. Now it doesn't show that i have connected
360 controller and i can't find where i could reinstall that option. Now my ps3 controller just flashed lights but doesnt connect and end up not being on. What the hell is this? Tried to update drivers, download everything i found, but no. Windows shows thst
there is ps3 controller plugged in but the controller doesn't light up or connect or do anything? What can i do to connect my ps3 controller? And i have already downloaded and installed all the drivers for the controller

 

Can't Get PS3 Controller to Work on Windows 10

In case anybody's wondering, this is the tutorial that I'm using:

I am attempting to use SCPServer to get my PS3 controller to work on my Windows 10 PC and it is not working. From past experience, I have managed to get controllers to work on Windows 10 using the tutorial listed above. Although, on the computer that I am
currently trying to use PS3 controllers on, it is not working. Before upgrading to Windows 10 (It was on Windows 7 before), I did manage to get controllers to work fine. I installed everything included in the package of the video, although I think the problem
might be the Xbox 360 accessories (You have to make your PS3 controller emulate an Xbox 360 controller to get this to work, by the way). Upon starting up my computer and checking task manager, the Xbox 360 accessories seem to start up like normal. Usually
when I check Devices and Printers, two Xbox 360 controller logos will appear, although in this case, they do not.
