Handheld PC controls on PC
PC games already read the handheld PC controls on their own. OpenController lists them and leaves them alone, so they keep a player number of their own when friends join with other controllers.

Windows only, and not tried on a machine yet. ROG Ally and MSI Claw buttons need settings written to the controller, which OpenController does not do.
How to set it up
- 1Download OpenController and open it. On Windows, its Requirements page installs the free drivers it needs, when you click.
- 2Connect the controller by cable, Bluetooth or its receiver. It shows up in OpenController's window, drawn in its own shape.
- 3Open it in the app to set its extra buttons as keys or macros. Games keep reading it as they already did.
