ok so i just did a reinstall of windows and did the updates and i launched minesweeper.
fuck me it all looks different.. AGAIN...
anyway i start playing.
i hit a mine.
MY FUCKING 360 CONTROLLER IS JUMPING AROUND ON THE TABLE AS THE MINES EXPLODE.
i dunno how long its been like this, but microsoft added fucking 360 pad support to minesweeper. at first i thought HA! thats kinda cool! rumble support for mines exploding... but 5 seconds later i realised that the 360 pad is shit for actually PLAYING the game with, so since i dont want the pad moving across the table every time i hit a mine, ill just disable the rumble feature.
so heres the question.
HOW THE FUCK DO I DO THAT?! i see NOTHING in the settings for rumble support. the fuck was microsoft thinking?! (or NOT thinking as the case may be)... HOW DO I DISABLE 360 PAD RUMBLE SUPPORT FOR MINESWEEPER (and i never... EVER... thought id ever need to ask THAT question...)
and no, i dont want to have to unplug the controller every time i play minesweeper... thats just retarded... though i guess it is worthy of a microsoft solution...

yeah as i said... rather not... seems so stupid of MS to think that everyone with a controller on their pc quite OBVIOUSLY will only want to only play one of the most well established dawn-of-time pc games with a controller and not a mouse.
oh well. im gonna go have another drunk

You could still disable your usb port from the control panel 
Well or just install any of the 1.000.000.000 minesweeper clones

im not using a controller for minesweeper. the problem is that the rumble kicks in when you hit a mine, so it starts bouncing around on the desk!
and yeah i have a controller for the pc. its fantastic for some games, especially since most of the games we get these days ARE console ports, designed for controllers.

you could try running it in a sandbox and forbid any hardware access (keypad) under IPC
