Introduction |
| If you purchased an original Xbox Wireless Receiver for Windows and are having issues using it in Win10, this guide will show you how to install the driver manually if it is not automatically picked up. | | | While the need for this method is less frequent in Win10, it still happens from time to time. | | | ADVANCE EOL HEADS UP: On 1/1/2023, I will begin to phase this guide out. On 1/1/2024, I will no longer support users with issues that are found but will correct major issues. On 1/1/2025, I will consider this guide “Obsolete”.[br] | | ***NOTE: While this guide will be obsolete on 1/1/2025, I will keep it up as long as I reasonably can but will consider it unsupported. If there are major issues that cause major breakdowns, I may pull the guide at this point.*** | | | == Guide notes == | * In most cases, Windows 10 will “just work". If it does not automatically pick up and install the driver, manual installation may be required. '''***''This improved compatibility is a result of Microsoft considering Xbox accessory compatibility in Windows 10.'''''*** | * Windows 8.x users: Refer to the [https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/*Read+Windows+EOL+warning*+How+to+install+the+Xbox+One+Wireless+Receiver+1713+on+Windows+7+and+Windows+8.1/102955|Windows 7/8.x guide]. TheseSome steps are ONLY forunique to Windows 10. | | * I do not know how to trigger the initial installation window manually. This is not shown since this laptop was used for testing after uninstalling the driver. |
