When gaming on a PC with a Xbox, Xbox Elite, or PS4 controller, a virtual keyboard opens when pressing the left stick!
A virtual keyboard that pops up when clicking the left stick on an Xbox controller (or even a Playstation Controller), is specifically related to a Steam App gaming feature called "Big Picture Mode". Somehow this feature can get triggered outside of Steam if it just happens to be running in the background, and it can affect other controllers/games as well.
Here is how to fix the issue!
Go into "Settings" in the Steam App
Click on "Controller" near the bottom
Next, you want to click on, and open, "Desktop Configuration" settings
When the settings window opens, you will see the left stick has the "Show Keyboard" setting mapped to it
Click where it says "Show Keyboard" in the Left Thumbstick mappings list
At the bottom of the mapping window that opens up, click where it says "Remove"
Then close the "Desktop Configuration" settings window
Close out of settings all together
That should remove the problem permanently for you!
