What are R1 and R2 keys in Windows 10?

This is my work computer and has never been connected to a gamepad.

    R1 and R2 are the shoulder buttons on a gamepad. Your computer might have detected the wireless controller driver, so simply disabling it should resolve the issue.

    You have to disable the gamepad from other connected devices first.

  • R1 and R2 are the shoulder buttons on a game controller, typically found on Xbox or third-party controllers; your computer may have detected a wireless controller driver, so simply disable the Microsoft Xbox 360 Accessories driver.
