Pro-Micro Not recognized in Windows XP

Is there a driver for a Pro-Micro Arduino for Win XP?How to Build DIY Arduino USB Expression Pedal for Efektor WF3607 | Kuassa

I'm trying to run one as a MIDI controller using this code taken from here
https://www.kuassa.com/diy-tutorial-how-to-build-arduino-based-expression-pedal-for-efektor-wf3607/:

#include "MIDIUSB.h"
// Expression pedal pin
#define expPin A0
// Switch 3PDT pin
#define switchPin 9

int sensorValue = 0;
int lastVal = 0;
int tempAnalog = 0;
int switchVal = HIGH;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(300);  
  pinMode(switchPin, INPUT);
}

void controlChange(byte channel, byte control, byte value) {
   midiEventPacket_t event = {0x0B, 0xB0 | channel, control, value};
  MidiUSB.sendMIDI(event);
}

void loop() {
  // Reinit Analog Value
  sensorValue = 0;

  // Read analog value
  tempAnalog = analogRead(expPin);
  
  // Convert 10 bit to 7 bit
  tempAnalog = map(tempAnalog, 0, 1023, 0, 127);
  tempAnalog = constrain(tempAnalog, 0, 127);

  // Read digital input (Switch)
  int readSwitch = digitalRead(switchPin);
  // Send switch status
  if(switchVal != readSwitch){
    switchVal =  readSwitch;
    // Off (0 - 63), On (64 - 127)
    // CC 80   (Our default value for switch 3PDT is using 
    //          MIDI control change number 80
    //          Change this to change control the change number)
    if(switchVal == HIGH){
      controlChange(1, 80, 127);
    }
    else{
      controlChange(1, 80, 0);
    }
    MidiUSB.flush();
  }

  // Send pedal status
  if(tempAnalog != lastVal)
  {
    // CC 11   (Our default value for expression pedal is using 
    //          MIDI control change number 11
    //          Change this to change control the change number)
    controlChange(1, 11, tempAnalog);
    // !Important, Flush after send
    MidiUSB.flush();
  }

  // Store current value to be used laters
  lastVal = tempAnalog;
  delay(5);  
}

I also have the ability to use it in Linux (I believe it works without a driver) and for some reason it does nothing. I have pin 9 hard wired HIGH and am changing the value of Analog Pin 0.

Your topic has been moved here as this forum section is more appropriate than where it was originally posted.

Why did you post it in the Due section of the forum ?

Got it figured out! It turned out that the driver was in the IDE (boards). I didn't have the Arduino IDE installed on the XP machine. I did that and it now recognizes the Pro Micro.
