Controller bug [FIXED]

[Monsterjj]

My xbone s controller works fine until steam is open, it then acts as some other device and an xbox controller at the same time.
For example in DBXenoverse 2 my controls changes back and forth between xbox controls and being numbered as if it was a generic contoller.
Also the Guide button moves the mouse to the top left and turns up my system volume.
I have no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ clue whats going on here.
Additionally my steam controller is no longer picked up by steam from either steam link or host PC.

Did you try to configure it in steam big screen?

Disable Steams input mapper and reconnect the gamepad. I had the same problem.

How would I go about doing that?

[ReBoot]

Go to Steam settings, i think its the last group. Disable the input mapper, Valve calls it "configuration support" for XInput gamepads. Then close Steam, disconnect the gamepad and start everythomg again. Should work now.

Turns out thats been disabled for a long while.

[ReBoot]

Ok, next. Enable everything, restart Ste, disable everything. And i really mean evwrything, AFAIR theres a separate settimg for desktop configurarion.

Yeah found out it wasnt steam at all just for some reason steam was making it weirder. I just for some reason had no dirvers for controllers so I updated windows and its all fixed. Thanks for trying to help though.

Hey, I have the same problem and already tried to update the drivers through Control Panel -> Devices and Printers -> selecting the controller and going to drivers, but it says the optimal drivers are already installed. Did you do it in any particular manner?

Sorry to say but I don't remember at all on how to fix it, especially since personally I've switched to a custom build of windows since then. so I couldn't help much more than the previous commenters
