Menus Defaulting To Joypad Control Not Keyboard

Featured Replies

Probably missing something obvious here but how do I get the menu screens to stop showing the various functions with the joypad controls and show the keyboard inputs instead?

Tried Googling, no joy. Tried mooching around in Options no joy there either.

That bugs me also, but we don't control Xbox advertising.

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700F CPU @ 2.90GHz (8 cores) Hyper on, Evga RTX 3060 12 Gig, 32 GB ram, Windows 11, P3D v6, and MSFS 2020 and a couple of SSD's

There is a command called cursor somethingorother. I removed that from my Xbox Controller profile on my PC installation of MSFS. No more problem.

Thanks Fielder, I'll try that.

The irony is back at the start of MSFS in 2020, the menus always used to display with the keyboard prompts, not the joypad inputs. Seems to be something that changed in an update.

Further irony is I don't even use the joypad for the game, have a Logitech Joystick, but leave it plugged in for when I play Snowrunner or one of the truck sims.

I use an Xbox Core (series s|x) controller and it will not be connected to a PC until the Logo button turns it on. So MSFS (and Windows) is unaware of it until that button is pushed, even though it is plugged in. So your issue doesn't apply for me.
