Step 2: Installing the drivers
Now you’re going to click on the button that says “Driver Manager” on the top of the page which will bring you to this screen.

Notice it says that the drivers are already loaded. That’s because i already intalled them.
But what you’re going to do is check the box by hardware location and then click load driver.
Wait for it to complete and the screen will now look like this.

Congradulations Your controller is now ready do be used! BUT! It still needs to be configured.
