Sorry I forgot a step. In the last window, after selecting 'Xbox 360 Peripherals', you're given another list of the actual drivers. There should be 3, driver for the wired xbox controller, play and charge kit, and the wireless receiver. Choose the one for the wireless receiver THEN hit next.

Xbox 360 Controller Windows 10 Not Working
i couple of years ago i purchased an Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver (The official white one with XBOX 360 written on the front). i have been using it on windows 7 with no problems, but i do remember that it was a pain to set up.
i have just been trying to set it up on Windows 10 Home and i cannot get it to work.
i have tried using both the 2015 and 2009 drivers as detailed in this guide here but this does not work for me.
i have also tried following the official installation instructions posted here whereby installing the drivers on the CD provided, then downloading the extra program. this also didn't work.
i have also tried variations of both of these and also different USB ports in case that was causing the problem. in the mean time though, i am sticking with the port i know worked under Windows 7
now the interesting thing is that when i plug in the dongle, i hear the 'device connected' sound instantly followed by the 'device disconnected' sound. this is irrespective of whether i have the drivers installed or not. no matter what i do, it connects then disconnects straight away, even when this happens it still shows under device manager (as either 'unknown Device' or Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows'. depending on whether i have the driver installed or not)
also, when trying to sync the controller to the receiver. while the receiver light is on, it never flashes when pressing the button. only when its 1st plugged in does it flash, then goes solid green
