using xbox controller as mouse cursor on pc? windows 11
ive been trying to out if i'm able to use my wireless xbox one controller as a mouse for pc since i have my pc also setup to my tv.

i know if i hold down the xbox button i can use the right stick to move the mouse cursor, but after a few seconds that just turns off the controller which is annoying.

Then i found youtube videos that demand i download a sketchy github file which, lol ♥♥♥♥ no.
Then i found some app on the microsoft store called "xmouser" which wants me to pay for it and again, lol ♥♥♥♥ no

and then i keep seeing posts and articles that claim steam can just allow that function by default, but it asks me to follow these steps: "Settings > Controller > General Controller Settings" which i guess is outdated because "general controller settings" just doesn't exist on my steam controller settings.

so is there a way to have my controller to act as a mouse cursor without downloading sketchy crap, paying for an app that may or may not work, or following outdated steps that take me nowhere?

I am using a small free programm called "JoyToKey" for many years for that purpose.
https://joytokey.net/en/

It allows you to assign the buttons of your keyboard and your mouse to buttons and the anlog sticks of your gamepad. So i just assigned mouse movement to the analog sticks, left and right mouse buttons to a and b and some other useful keyboard commands and shortcuts to the other free buttons and triggers. Works like a charm, at least for me.

You can make controller macros to launch movies and such as well, check out Turbo Mode while yr at it. :csd2smile:

10 dollar wireless mouse fixes all of this......and FYI windows updates can and will turn it off making it annoying if you do get the controller working as a mouse.....

That app Xmouser works wonders. More straight-forward to use than steam/more common sense) It has a free trial and is just a few bucks. Well, just another opinion ;l
