| == Guide notes == |
| * In most cases, Windows 10 installations are far less troublesome. While manual intervention is required in some situations, these occurrences don't happen as regularly. |
| * These steps are intended to be used in Windows 10. For Windows 7/8.x, refer to the corresponding guide. |
| * You are far more likely to have the automatic driver installation work correctly starting with Windows 10. Since Microsoft planned Xbox accessory compatibility out of the gate, these problems are less frequent. |
| * Since I do not know how to trigger the initial device installation window you usually get, I have omitted this part from the guide. This is the case because I used this computer to do a Windows 10 test installation before. |
