I seem to be having issues installing drivers onto my attached usb devices. Whenever I plug in my xbox one / xbox 360 controller, I will get the ding that windows has recognized an attached device then the controller shuts off.
In the device manager it claims the driver is not installed on my xbox one controller (code 1) and when I go to install the driver (I navigate and find the driver on my computer) I get this issue
'Windows found drivers for your device but encountered an error while attempting to install them. One the installers for this device cannot perform the installation at this time.'
I've tried this with multiple Xbox wired controllers and I even get this error when I plug my phone into my PC (although windows 10 will live update me saying that its configuring my device). I've also tried multiple USB ports to no avail. I've also tried uninstalling the device and reinstalling and I still get the same errors
I'm currently updated on all of my other drivers (BIOS, usb controller, windows 10, etc etc). If anyone could provide me any help that would be amazing! Thank you!

Has anyone figured out a way to get the Xbox One Elite Controller working in Win 7/8/8.1? The new controller has a different HWID so the old drivers don't work and I have been unable to find any drivers on the web or through Windows Update. I have an original Xbox One Controller working just fine on my main Win7 gaming machine via USB, but if I connect the Elite it comes back with the 'device doesn't have a driver' since the HWID is different than the installed drivers support.

I tried this on my Win10 laptop and that detects the Elite controller just fine, but I want the ability to use this on my main gaming machine and my XB1. Supposedly the controller is supported on Win7/8/8.1 (*excluding the Win10/XB1 only config app) according to the MS support rep, but he didn't find any drivers for Win 7/8/8.1 either.

I really don't see any performance / aesthetic reasons to update to WIn10 until I am forced to for a DX12 game I actually want to play. I know the Xbox Accessories app isn't support below Win10 except I can still use that clunky app on my XB1 to config a profile, but even that workaround won't help if Win 7/8/8.1 can't find a driver to support basic operation.
