Stop Xbox One controller from controlling Windows 10


I have an Xbox One Elite controller and today I noticed moving the stick scrolls in default windows apps. I have no apps installed that would allow this behavior (xpadder, joy2key, gopher, etc). I am in the "Release Preview" channel of the insider program so I'm not sure if this was a new update or what.


I'm afraid it's causing issues with Steam so I want to figure out how to disable this behavior.


Answer



Turns out it was the new Steam "Xbox Configuration Support" feature. I disabled it and now the controller doesn't do anything in Windows and all my games work again.
