I've been executing the following command to silence the "MS XBOX 360 Controller Wireless receiver". After switching to Windows 10 Pro 64-bit from Windows 7, the system would restart immediately after completion. Previously in Windows 7, I could toggle the device on and off without rebooting. Please be aware that this issue stems from changes in the Device Manager—restarting the PC is required to disable it. (This isn't about the actual Xbox receiver.) =============================== Start C:\Scripts\XBOX\XboxExt.exe pause start devcon disable "USB\VID_045E&PID_0719" taskkill /IM XboxExt.exe /F

The setup isn’t confirmed, but it looks like the /r handles it. For the third line, consider starting devcon disable "USB\VID_045E&PID_0719".

Whops, sorry, that was part of my testing, but it's without the /r. Still doesn't disable the device. Edited original post.
