Not sure whether the unplugging had anything to do with it, but worth mentioning just in case. My keyboard did act up for a couple seconds at that point, so I fiddled around, unplugged my XBox controller, and then it started working again. This time however, I wasn't able to disable the device drivers (button greyed out), so I straight up uninstalled them (button just below). Then, you can go back to the control panel, search keyboard, open up the big green menu entry named exactly that, and do the same thing again with the list of PIH-compliant keyboards in the Hardware tab.Now you can go back to the list of HID-compliant mouses and do the same thing for every other such entry that you find.Go to the Driver tab, and click on the Disable device button near the bottom of the window.In the window that opens, click the Change settings button at the bottom to reopen the same window with elevated privileges. Click the Properties button at the bottom of the window.Once you find one of those, select it.I suggest you do something similar in order to have an easier time discriminating which is which.

It definitely helped that my XBox controller was plugged in to my keyboard, so the Location property's value would conveniently read SteelSeries Apex 7. Find the ones whose Location property, in the area underneath, would indicate that it's actually your XBox controller.

In the list view named Devices, there's a bunch of HID-compliant mouse entries.

Search mouse, click the big green menu entry (likely to be the first one).

Open the OG control panel ( Windows + R, control, Enter).

Note: I'm translating this from my native language, there might be discrepancies in the menus' names. If none of the other answers work for you, I found a definitive solution to this maddeningly dumb issue.
