Is there an Xbox Series X Controller driver for Window 7?

Why can I run my X Box controller on Windows 10 32 bit system and not on Windows 7 32 bit system? Are their some web sights to find the correct Drivers for Winows 7 for my X Box?

Hi,

Sounds like a faulty controller to me. Especially if it used to work but now it doesn't and the fact that you've tried it on two different computer's.

Downloading drivers won't help as there are no updated drivers. The drivers for the Xbox 360 controllers are built into Windows 10. There no issues with Xbox 360 controllers and Windows 10 to my knowledge.

The only way for sure would be to try another Xbox 360 controller or a third party Xinput supported controller. Failing that an Xbox One or Series X|S controller.

Apparently Microsoft can't be bothered to update the controller drivers for windows 7 and 8, I have a wireless X Box controller with the play and charge kit. On my vista PC all I had to do was plug it in, it was recognized and worked immediately. On windows
7 it will detect it as a device but not as an actual controller. Microsoft would just rather tell you to buy a wireless receiver or a wired controller then fix their flawed drivers. The play and charge kit story about it not working is completely false.

Did your controller ever work before, or are you just trying to get it to work now?

The drivers for the Xbox 360 are not available for download independently anymore, and there is no reason for them to be, as Xbox 360 controllers have been natively supported by Windows since Windows Vista. The drivers can't be downloaded because they are already part of the Windows Operating System.

Is your controller wired or wireless?

Unlike Xbox One or Series X|S controllers, Xbox 360 wireless controllers are always wireless. If you've attempted to connect a Wireless Xbox 360 controller to your laptop with the Play and Charge cable, it won't work. This is because the Play and Charge does not send data. It will just flash. Xbox 360 wireless controllers need an Xbox 360 gaming receiver.

Only Xbox One or newer Series X|S controllers can be both wired and wireless.

Hi,

Windows 10 (64 and 32-bit) already has drivers built in for Xbox controllers. It's just plug and play. As Windows 7 pre-dates the Xbox One, it requires a driver to be downloaded.

Normally if you insert an Xbox One controller into a Windows 7 machine it should download and install the driver. If that does not happen, then you can do it manually.

I found this driver from the Internet archive's 'Way back machine'. It should be safe as it is from a Microsoft website originally.
