    xbox 360 controller not working on PC


    i have an xbox 360 controller which i'm trying to connect to windows 10 for gaming, however i don't think it's being recognised as a controller.

    there isn't a controller being recognised, and whenever i plug it in, there's no pop up on the side about drivers, etc.

    however in device manager, when attempting to update drivers, it states it already has the best ones.

    the controller itself is only flashing green

    :)

    Is the controller a wireless controller or wired? If it is wireless, how are you connecting it? If by using the play & charge kit, then the Xbox 360 controller will not work, as the cable is only recognized on PC for charging only. You need to use a Xbox
    360 Wireless adapter for PC to connect a wireless Xbox 360 controller to your PC.

    Hiya!

    Paul from the Xbox Forums Team here to assist with the issue, it looks like you're trying to get a Xbox 360 controller to work on your pc. How is this controller connecting to your PC? Is it a wired controller or wireless controller? If it's a wireless 360
    controller there is a wireless dongle that would be needed to have the controller work on PC. Please let us know.

    Happy Gaming!

    I want to connect my Xbox 360 controller to my PC wireless but all I have is this Cellink Bluetooth dongle

    The xbox one controller is supported for PC playing. I would try this download for your pc to see if you can get the 360 controller to work

    Xbox 360 PC meant USB controller: Does it work on the USB slot of an Xbox 360 Slim?

    Hi Rod,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums.

    I'm not quite sure what you are asking but from the title, are you asking if an Xbox One controller will work on an Xbox 360 S? If that's what you are asking, then no, that would not work. Xbox One controllers only work on an Xbox One console and Windows
    PC. Xbox 360 controllers only work on an Xbox 360 console and Windows PC.

    I hope that answers your question.
