In this tutorial, learn how to connect an Xbox 360 wired controller to your Windows 10 PC.
Many PC games allow you to play with an Xbox controller instead of a keyboard and mouse. The Xbox 360 Controller for Windows can be easily installed on any PC that has an available USB port and is running Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10.
How To Connect an Xbox 360 Controller To a Windows 10 PC
Follow these steps to set up your Xbox 360 wired controller on Windows 10:
Step 1. To begin, plug the USB connector of your Xbox 360 controller into any USB 2.0 or 3.0 port on your computer.
Step 2. Windows 10 will automatically install drivers for your controller, thus you won’t have to download or install software other than Windows 10 updates. Once the drivers have been installed, you can use your Xbox 360 controller.
Step 3. Launch and play an Xbox 360 game on PC and then test your controller by pulling a trigger, pressing a button, or moving a stick on the controller.
Notes:
– If your Xbox 360 wired controller is not detected by your PC, we would recommend you plugging it into a different USB port, and then check it again.
– If your controller still does not work, check that Windows 10 is fully updated. Install any updates and then try again.
