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!
