    Xbox 360 receiver driver not installing from device manager


    Dear all,

    I purchased a chinese xbox 360 controller receiver a while ago. It was working fine and all, had no issues with the driver. However, until a few days ago, my windows got corrupted due to a bios update. So naturally, I reinstalled windows on my pc.

    However this time, the drivers will not install

    I click update drivers and select the receiver option from the list of drivers. It says successfully installed, but nothing happens and it still reports as if the driver hasn't been installed. The controller won't also connect.

    Ps. Developer mode is on

    :)

    Hi,

    To address your concern, we suggest that you uninstall and reinstall the Xbox 360 controller driver. To do that, follow these steps:

    • Go to the Device Manager.
    • In Device Manager locate Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows
      and right click it.
    • Choose Uninstall.
    • After the driver has been uninstalled, restart your computer. When your computer restarts, Windows 10 will automatically install the missing driver.

    Not : I tried the things listed below ;

    *Unplugged, change the usb ports,

    *Uninstall driver and install again

    *Uninstall driver and choose another type of device driver ( Charge and Play kit, Xbox Receiver, Xbox Controller from the device manager)

    *Try another xbox 360 wireless controller

    Looking at the information I have please follow these steps to see if it solves the issue:

    With the adapter plugged:

    1- Right click the windows icon on the task bar and click device manager.

    2- Look for the device that should appear as unknown like you said.

    3- Right click the device and click properties. Go to the driver tab.

    4- Click update driver, then click "browse my computer for driver software".

    5- Click the option "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"

    6- Go to the bottom of the list you should see xbox 360...click on it.

    7- Click the xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows.

    8- After installation is done test by turning on the receiver, and finish by turning the xbox controller on.

    Hope that solves your issue.
