    xbox controller not being detected by pc


    hi i have recently got back into playing some games on my PC and i figured to use my controller since i am more comfortable with it i have done this in the past so i know it works and when i plugged it in it vibrated and nothing i have used different cables
    and different USB ports on the PC and nothing and when i press the home button it either turns on my Xbox, sync to my Xbox like how it would normally or if the Xbox is completely off the controller wont turn on at all i have tried trouble shooting Xbox accessories
    app doesn't work because you need a connected controller and my drives do not need updating so i don't know whats the problem

    :)

    Xbox 360 wired controller with windows 10

    In addition to the instructions from XBF Chris J, make sure that you really have a wired Xbox 360 controller, and not a wireless Xbox 360 controller that you connect with a Play & Charge kit cable.

    A real Xbox 360 controller that works with PC has a fixed, non-removable cable. If you can unplug the cable from the front of the controller, that cable ONLY transmits power to charge the controller.

    No controller data can be transmitted via that charging cable, and therefore the PC can not detect it. But when the controller detects power coming through that cable, it vibrates shortly. Maybe it's that why the controller "only" vibrates, but is not detected
    by the PC.
