Windows 10 home, yea for some reason it doesn't work, I have tried manually installed the driver software and uninstall the (Device Descriptor Request Failed) stuff in device manager -> restart and still remain the same issue.

the software called: xbox 360 accesories software 1.2

Thats strange, on Windows 10 any Xbox pad should be automatically be recognized.
Never had any problem with it, neither with wired or wireless ones.

And you have a "real" wired pad yes? Not one where you can pull out the cable at the pad end?
