Greetings.
I get random occasional remote control requests while playing an online game (Monster Hunter World). The request is as follows:
“Remote control requested
An application requested access to:
*Input devices”
[EDIT: It turns out this request shows up whenever I touch the trackpad on my PS4 controller]
If possible, I’d like to prevent the request from showing up.
