Just pull the plug, lol. If it's wireless, turn it off or disconnect through your computer's Bluetooth. Steam can't keep it if your PC doesn't see it.

Disconnecting a controller from Steam is super easy! Just open Steam, go to 'Settings' > 'Controller' > 'General Controller Settings' and uncheck the box next to the controller you want to disconnect. If it's connected via Bluetooth to your PC, you might also need to disconnect it from your computer's Bluetooth settings. Happy gaming without accidental button presses!

Had the same issue last week! Went into Steam's settings like mentioned, but also had to forget the device in my Bluetooth settings. Worked like a charm!
