In case you are using a wireless Xbox 360 Controller on Windows 10, then you must be using a wireless receiver for connecting it to the PC. Sometimes, the Xbox 360 Controller driver or the receiver can cause problems. To get rid of the problem, you need to manually download the Xbox 360 Controller and Xbox 360 Controller Receiver drivers.

From the Dashboard, go to the Settings Hub at the far right of the screen. Select the tile labeled System, and on the next screen select Network Settings.

This will take you to the Network Settings page.
