Whenever the driver tries to automatically install itself it just says the 'the driver could not be found'. I think this may be something to do with the fact that in the device manager it doesn't specify the type of controller (I read that it should say something along the lines of 'Microsoft Xbox One controller') and therefore the computer doesn't know what driver to look for to install. As proof of concept, I got a generic bluetooth controller (Red Samurai) to work with Xbox one streaming on a PC. This does not use X360CE. As far as I know, no one has been able to get X360CE to.

I'm running Windows 7 and have tried multiple USB cables. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
I'm running Windows 7, so is there a way to fix or hack it to get the controller working via Bluetooth in Windows 7?

Yes, you can, however you need a specific model of controller. In the image below, take note of the top-front of the controllers. Xbox One controllers that are Bluetooth compatible have a solid face plate with no gaps, whereas non-Bluetooth models have diagonal splits along the shoulder buttons:
You will also need to update the controllers firmware. 17 xxxtentacion mp3 download torrent. To do this, either connect the controller to your Xbox One while connected to the Internet, or connect it to your PC with a micro USB cord. See this link for updating the firmware through a PC.
To pair the device, hold the sync button on the top-left of the controller while you search for new Bluetooth devices on your PC. It should appear as 'Xbox One wireless controller for Windows'.

If you still have issues connecting your controller, you can also use the Moga Serial to Windows Interface tool to use the controller as an XInput HID.
I have used all of these methods successfully on Windows 7, 8, and 10.

The issue seems to stem from rather evil active efforts by MS to make 7 actively avoid the driver required, a guy over on this reddit post: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/3vuvg8/manually_download_xbox_one_controller_driver_for/ Has for the past 2 years been kindly keeping us supplied with the driver, install it and mess around with the wired/wireless stuff on the controller and it should work.
