## Using the guide button in Windows

If you wish to use the 'guide' button to turn off the controller (which is configurable in the menu, default is 'start & back')

you need to go to 'Xbox Game Bar' settings in Windows and leave the 'Xbox Game Bar' ON, but turn OFF the setting: 'Open Xbox Game Bar using this button on a controller'
