The device is displayed correctly under bluetooth, but not in device manager so i cannot update the driver manually and the downloads failed to fix the problem. When you connect an Xbox Wireless Controller to your Windows 8. If Windows is not set to automatically download device software, you can check for updates through Device Manager. Bluetooth connections are not supported.
If the driver is still not updating through Device Manager, then there seems to be some unofficial workaround although, I'm not going to suggest them since they would obviously not be recommended by Microsoft. From searching around the net it seems like quite a few are having this problem, and some seem to be suggesting Microsoft removed all official download sources for this driver, and eventually "broke" the Windows update for the driver.
Instead of bumping an old topic, you might have better luck if you create your own topic that explains your issue. As the others already said: Don't bump old threads, and create your own thread for this topic. You can't use Xbox One controllers on Windows 7 via Bluetooth. Also, if your PC supports it, you can still try to install Windows 10, and supply your Windows 7 serial number to license it.
Do it before January , as Windows 7 then leaves support and won't get any security updates anymore! We will be locking this older thread due to it being revived by a new post.
