Solution for to turning off the Xbox Controller Light on PC

[turbo-powwer]

Guys this is the solution that doesn't require additional software.


Open your cmd with administrator rights.

directly put this script on cmd.


SETX SDL_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_XBOX_ONE_HOME_LED 0.1 /M


It should look like this:

C:\WINDOWS\system32>SETX SDL_JOYSTICK_HIDAPI_XBOX_ONE_HOME_LED 0
Press Enter to execute it.


(0.1 = the dimmest setting we can choose. For reference, 0.4 = the normal brightness. 0 = completely off.)

After this>>>


Start Steam
Connect controller


Important !!!!!!!!

You have to install Xbox Extended Feature Support Driver on Steam. For doing this

Go to the Steam > Settings > Controller > General Controller Settings -> External Gamepad Settings -> Click install and voila



If the light doesn't dim, see if this changes anything:

1. Enable Xbox Configuration Support (Steam > Settings > Controller > General Controller Settings)

2. Disconnect->reconnect controller.

3. Restart Steam if still at regular brightness.

4. Disconnect->reconnect controller.



Set for steam to auto start and it's done.
