Is there any way to prevent an Xbox Controller from opening Windows Magnifier?
I'm using an Xbox controller on PC and I find that there's some particular button combination (something + the guide button) that launches the Windows Magnifier accessibility ("ease of access") feature. Disabling the feature doesn't prevent the controller from just enabling it again, however, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to prevent the shortcut from being triggered by the controller.
Solution 1:
I've been searching for like 3 months, and what you do is the following:
- Open the steam settings tab. You can find this in the top right of your steam window by clicking "Steam", then "Settings".
- Navigate to the "Controller" tab, then press "Guide button chord configuration". A tab will open where you will see all of the guide button's actions.
- Unbind or rebind actions as you like, in my case I've unbound all of the things because I had a problem where my right joystick kept spamming these actions, but if this feature actually works correctly for you, you can rebind things too!
I've been searching for ages for a solution so I had to share it with the world.
