Windows 10: Wired Controller Connection not working

Hello,I am currently using a DS4 Duelshock 4 Controller, and it is connected through a cable into my pc. Light comes on signalling that it is charging, it comes up in "Devices and Printers" but still wont give an input. As well as that I have another DS4 controller that isn't connected in anyway and cannot be removed from "Devices and Printers". It isn't anywhere in Device Manager and is only seen in the "Bluetooth and Other Devices" tab of Settings.Please help,Thanks

Xbox One Controller Wired Connection Registers as Generic Controller

Hi Trey,

Using a micro-USB cable is one way on how you can connect your Xbox One Controller to a Windows 10 PC. Once connected, it will install the most current drivers needed for your controller. Regarding your concern, have you tried using another micro-USB
cable? If not, we suggest that you uninstall first the current driver for your Xbox One Controller on your computer, restart, and then connect the controller using another USB cable.
There's a possibility that it affects the computer to get the correct driver for your controller.

If your Xbox One Controller still treated as the generic controller, we recommend that you manually install the driver by performing the following steps:

• Press Windows Key + X and choose Device Manager from the list.
• Once Device Manager opens, locate and right-click Xbox One Controller.
• From the menu choose Update Driver Software.
• Click on Browse my computer for driver software.
• Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer.
• Locate Microsoft Xbox One Controller on the list and click
  Next to install it. If you can’t locate Microsoft Xbox One Controller driver, you might have to uncheck
  Show compatible hardware option.

Let us know if that works for you.

Xbox 360 wired USB controller not working but connecting

So I am trying to use a Xbox 360 Wired USB controller, I plug it in, the PC recognizes that and gives that little tone, but I get no notification of the drivers being installed. According to Microsoft it is supposed to happen automatically with windows 10.
The controller itself says its connected because the top left green light is on and not flashing. When I try to use the remote in a game or in the Xbox app nothing works and it is not recognized. I also checked USB devices and nothing is listed, but it might
just be because remotes don't show in there. Is there anything I can do to get the thing to actually work on the PC or is this a lost cause.

Update- I just went into the device manager and the controller is listed as unknown device, I uninstalled the device and plugged it back in where the PC then recognized it and said we will set up the device. it then said it could find no drivers to install
and it is listed as an unknown device and I cant update the drivers nor will it recognize the remote.
