Disable XBOX 360 Controller as a Mouse [This is NOT caused by Steam]
So when I playing The Witcher 3 I have problem with control. The control keeps changing from controller to keyboard/mouse. Then I discovered that my XBOX 360 controller is act as mouse, that's why I have problem while playing The Witcher 3. First things first I think it's because Steam service, but when I completely shutdown Steam from my system, my XBOX 360 controller is still act as a mouse, so this problem is not caused by Steam, but I think it's caused by Windows 10. Does anyone know to turn off this Windows 10 feature?

Are you sure you don't have a third party app running to emulate a mouse with a 360 controller?

Windows 10 by default does not emulate a mouse with a 360 controller, and I don't think there is a setting to do this via the O.S either.

Windows 10 by default does not emulate a mouse with a 360 controller, and I don't think there is a setting to do this via the O.S either.

Finally I found a solution for this problem. Here's the steps:
1. Open "Device Manager".
2. Find "Xbox 360 Peripherals".
3. Select "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows" and choose "Update driver".
4. Choose "Browse my computer for driver software" and choose "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer".
5. Choose "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows Version: 2.1.0.1349 [13/08/2009]" and then "Next".
6. Restart your Windows.

So I think the driver "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows Version: 10.0.18362.1 [18/03/2019] ] is the root problem.

Note:
- There are only 2 drivers for "Xbox 360 Wireless Receiver for Windows" the first is 2009 version and the other is 2019 version.
- 2019 version is capable to make your controller to act as a mouse natively.

I hope this solution will help others. Cheers!
