I purchased an Xbox One from the Microsoft Online Store during a Black Friday deal. After using the controller for a few days, I’m starting to like it over the Xbox 360 pad. It feels more natural in my hands and my fingers feel more natural being on the triggers. Since it has a micro USB port on the top, I figured it would work by plugging it into my system and Microsoft would automatically download the drivers for me.

As it turns out, you need to manually download and install the drivers. Fortunately, Microsoft released these drivers on their website. I went ahead and made a video tutorial on how to install the controller for your PC.

If your controller just blinks while connected and does not show up in the device manager as an unknown device, there is a huge chance that your cable is not a data cable or is broken.
Here are options for that:
