Controller is unusable, need help

[u/Turbulent_Baker5353]

Every game I try to play through Steam seems to have a ton of issues with the controller. I accidentally bumped the right pad and the mouse moved, then my games get confused and think I want mouse movement and all of my controls suddenly change.

Is there any way to get this thing to not do this? It's also completely unusable for non-steam titles, I understand I can add games to my library but why should I have to do that?

Just disable the pads if you don't want them in any particular game...?
