Hi, 

As I know the driver should be installed automatically when the device is connected to the machine unless there is no compatible driver in Windows Update store.
We could try to install the setup executable file in compatibility mode by right click, and choose Properties\Compatibility
If the issue persists, it is recommended to contact the Microsoft accessories support directly.

Best regards
