    How to prevent keyboard popup when using xbox controller?


    I tried playing Call of Duty on the Blizzard launcher but when I hold X a keyboard pops up. The same occurs when I hold Left joystick while playing Cyberpunk 2077 on the GOG launcher. How do I fix this issue? I have no problems when I use the controller to play on Steam.

    :)
