When you connect an Xbox Wireless Controller to your Windows 8.1 or Windows 7 PC with a micro-USB cable, Windows will automatically download and install the drivers for the controller. If Windows is not set to automatically download device software, you can check for updates through Device Manager.

8) In Device Manager, right-click on the device and click Update Driver Software 9) Click Search automatically for Updated driver software. Then Windows will install a new driver automatically. IMPORTANT: To install the Microsoft Xbox One Controller driver successfully, ensure that you have installed the latest.net framework 4.5. An Xbox One Wireless Controller purchased in or after June 2015 can take updates wirelessly without connecting via USB cable. This controller has a small, circular 3.5-mm port on the bottom of the controller; controllers without this port must update via USB cable.

Everything below this is just for record and is no longer valid.

I'm currently trying to figure out if it is possible to get the Windows 10 driver to work on Windows 7, here is where I am right now.

Not successful yet and only try this if you want help get it working.

First to get the Windows 10 driver for the Xbox One Wireless Adapter I went to http://catalog.update.microsoft.com using Internet Explorer (as this is the only browser supported for catalog).

There are currently 4 drivers listed for the adapter: http://i.imgur.com/Kaxsfmn.png

If you download them all you'll get:

  • AMD64-all-20794329_7c5e465b064827612d9289d3c9a26d818f2bcfdc.cab (DriverVer=10/17/2015,20.24.34.491)

  • AMD64-en-20770008_a4e687fb93fcb19c1bc067d8a51f1c1c32d2c574.cab (DriverVer=08/26/2015,19.29.20.953)

  • X86-all-20794332_ff018bd1c603d942fb276b19d821b91d2cf9f5fa.cab (DriverVer=10/20/2015,19.53.40.791)

  • X86-en-20770009_49cb8693fbfbabcf9d62691c771f3661c6caa6f5.cab (DriverVer=08/26/2015,19.16.17.976)

You can actually install the driver if you extract the contents and modify the mt7612us.inf file.

So for example using AMD64-all-20794329_7c5e465b064827612d9289d3c9a26d818f2bcfdc.cab, extracted you will find the following files:

  • FW_ACC_00U.bin

  • mt7612us.cat

  • mt7612us.inf

  • mt7612us.sys

Edit mt7612us.inf, and modify

If you plugin your adapter into a Windows 7 system it will be detected as XBOX ACC in the Device Manager: http://i.imgur.com/IqPQ264.png

Right click and update driver, finding the mt7612us.inf file you modified, you'll get a security warning, install anyway. You'll need to restart after.

Once restarted you'll find the driver installed and the adapter listed under Network adapter > Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows: http://i.imgur.com/5N6QzUD.png (Ignore #8 part, I've tried this a ton of times already).

If you check properties it will list:

Windows cannot start this hardware device because its configuration information (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

My guess is that it's related to the xboxgip upper filter mentioned in the mt7612us.inf file

; This installation script supports Xbox Wireless Adapter for Windows. ; It also adds the xboxgip service as an upper filter for the board.

In particular:

[PnPFilterRegistration] HKR,'UpperFilters',0x00010000,'xboxgip'

Next step I have tried is to remove xboxgip as an upper filter. You can find this blogpost explaining lower/upper filters: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/usbcoreblog/archive/2013/12/10/help-after-installing-windows-8-1-my-device-fails-with-error-code-19.aspx

I started up regedit and searched for xboxgip

You'll find it in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetEnumUSBVID_045E&PID_02E6355542 (also in ControlSet001 & ControlSet002 but these are reflected from CurrentControlSet): http://i.imgur.com/H7SjooA.png

If you change the ownership of 355542 you can set Full Control to everyone and delete xboxgip UpperFilter. You'll need to restart again for this to take effect.

Unfortunately you'll see the error now changes to this (inside Device Manager):

Windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware. The driver may be corrupted or missing. (Code 39)

Anyways this is as far as I got, it maybe that xboxgip is a requirement, which is a protocol driver in Windows 10: http://batcmd.com/windows/10/services/xboxgip/

It exists in %WinDir%System32drivers as xboxgip.sys, simply moving a copy of it from Windows 10 to Windows 7 doesn't appear to have any affect.

mt7612us.inf also references xboxgip.inf

I'm not sure if it's possible to some how install xboxgip.sys on Windows 7 or Windows 8 and see if it might work, if anyone has found xboxgip.inf please let me know.

I found a link to xboxgip.sys from: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=183267908 Here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=183263051&postcount=293

The following errors are displayed in Windows Logs under System:

I've located xboxgip.inf

Will setup a Win7 virtual machine and try to install it.

Well I tried to install xboxgip.sys via .inf file, modified .inf to NTamd64 & NTx86, [Install] to [DefaultInstall] & Characteristics = 0x20, and while it copies xboxgip.sys to /System32/Drivers/ I don't see any evidence of it actually installing as a service or creating keys in ControlSet. Might be unsigned driver protection, not exactly sure.

Messed around some more on Nov 1st.

I tried installing the driver with 'bcdedit.exe -set TESTSIGNING ON' which disables driver signing, but still getting (Code 39). It seems like mt7612us.sys doesn't want to start, it's possible that it may not be possible to make this work at all. But I'm not exactly sure.

I also tried messing with xboxgip.sys via registry, I exported the exact registry settings it uses in Windows 10.

Having xboxgip.sys configured exactly like on Windows 10 doesn't seem to have much effect at all, my guess at this point is that mt7612us.sys driver is simply failing to run for some reason.

I tested the November 2015 drivers and neither are working, I'm having the same issues as described above.

Four months after the launch of the console, Microsoft still hasn't released a PC driver for the Xbox One controller. Someone else has finally done it for them. With a few caveats, YouTube user Lucas Assis has uploaded video instructions and a driver that will make your Xbox One controller work with your PC. The video is 11 minutes long, so it's not exactly a plug and play solution, but if you really like the Xbox One controller this will get it talking to your PC.

Assis' solution uses a combination of a generic USB driver, controller emulating software vJoy, libusb (which allows applications to access USB devices), and his own application, which supports up to 16 (!) controllers. All of these are included in the download .

Basically, after downloading it you'll need to:

  • Open your device manager and plug in your Xbox One controller
  • Install the WinUSB device driver (a Windows driver)
  • Install vJoy
  • Open vJoy and use it to detect the controllers
  • Install libusb, launch its filter installer wizard and use it to install the two WinUSB devices that are your controllers.
  • Open Assis' app.

Assis does a good job of walking you through these steps in the video. They're are little involved, but nothing you need a computer science degree for.

From there you'll probably want to install XPadder or x360ce (included in the download) to make it work with games as if it were an Xbox 360 controller. As you'll see in the video, x360ce is a little problematic, and Assis still has some issues with the d-pad, but until Microsoft offers something better, we'll have to make do with homemade solutions. And it took Assis all of a day to make his application. By the time Microsoft gets around to fully supporting the controller, this utility may have ironed out all the kinks.
