    How to use xbox one controller on PC


    So I've plugged my wired xbox one controller into an xbox one, updated the firmware and now plugged it into my PC. It vibrates when you first conenct it to the PC and the xbox logo is lit up and I'm able to use the logo to go into xbox store etc, however
    I've run a couple of games now and none have responded to the controller.

    Admittedly these games are a little old (2011-13 mostly), so are some games too old to support xbox one controllers on PC? Do I need batteries in the controller even though it's wired, lighting up and vibrating? Any help would be wonderful.

    Thanks

    :)

    Controller Xbox one on Windows 10

    Hello MildSuperset412,

    I need to ask, have you been able to follow up with "How to connect an Xbox One Wireless Controller to a Windows PC" , and does the
    controller work when it is connected to your PC through the USB port? Also, if you haven't already done so, may I suggest double checking "How
    to update your Xbox One Controller on Windows 10    " .
