[Tech] How to Download Xbox One drivers on Windows 7

[Driver links at bottom of post]

I got a PDP wired Xbox One controller as a gift recently and upon trying to use it with my temporary Windows 7 PC, I noticed no drivers were installing. Upon looking around Microsoft's site, I found no driver results. Many sources say that Xbox One controllers can't be used on anything older than Windows 10, which I knew wasn't true.

Eventually I found links to the old drivers on Major Nelson's site, but to my dismay, they returned a 404. So I decided to check on archive.org to see if they were archived, and sure enough, they were! They're definitely not easy for find for Windows 7 anymore, so I thought it might save someone else the trouble if I post them here.

Microsoft seems hell bent on keeping this process as much of a pain in my ass as they can. Is there anywhere to download the damned driver. Dec 20, 2015 - Hello. As a gift, I've purchased for my nephew an Xbox One Controller (for PC) to use as a wired controller on his Windows 7 PC.

Here are the download links:

Hello.

As a gift, I've purchased for my nephew an Xbox One Controller (for PC) to use as a wired controller on his Windows 7 PC. It is my understanding that for use with Windows 7, a driver download will be necessary (unlike Windows 10, which natively supports the controller without the need to install drivers).

The problem is that the target Windows 7 machine *has no internet access* (which is one reason why it hasn't yet been upgraded to Windows 10.) My intention was to use my own system to download the drivers onto a USB stick, and then send it (along with the controller) to my nephew, who could install the drivers directly from the USB stick. Unfortunately, I've searched online for a download link to the Windows 7 drivers for that controller, but all I can find is instructions on how to allow Windows to automatically download and install the drivers. That would of course be fine if internet access was available to that PC, but it's not. What I need is a link to a file that I can download, copy to a USB stick, and then run separately as an installer on the target machine.

Can anyone point me to such a link?

It's also unfortunate that my nephew's system is a full PC tower, and is simply not portable. Otherwise, we might have been able to bring it to someplace where we could temporarily hook it up to the internet. That however is not possible.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
