This is something that's been happening for the last month and I can't seem to figure out why. Every time I boot up windows I make sure that my peripherals are not plugged in, so that's my Asus Xtion Pro Live, my Logitech G13, and my PS4 controller (DS4 Windows). Once Windows loads up I go to the Devices control panel and select Game Controllers, in there I have the two sensors on the Asus, the X360 controller (DS4 Windows) and the G13 joystick showing up. This has me completely puzzled as to why that happens.

When I plug in the G13 it works and I don't get a duplication in the Game Control Panel, when I plug in the Asus I don't get the extra two sensors in the Game Control Panel, however when I plug in the DS4 I get another X360 controller popping up meaning that it can't be used unless I uninstall the other X360 controller from the Devices and Printers screen, but on reboot it'll be back! This also prevents me from using the controller because the G13's joystick and the Asus sensors are showing up even when disconnected.

Has anyone else seen this happen before? Everything was fine before and I can't think of anything that could have caused this from happening as I haven't installed anything around that time to make this happen.
