delete all joystick axes and or buttons within FSX en masse

[lawndartleo]

Is there a file/config within the structure of FSX or its supporting directories that contains all the button assignments for FSX that can be deleted or edited so that all default joystick axes and joystick buttons are unassigned?  I do not want to delete keyboard press assignments, just those things that are setup automagically by FSX that are joystick related. 

 

1.... it takes a good amount of time to go through the UI and delete them one by one

2.... for some reason, landing gear and next view seem to take multiple times to kill off, they just keep coming back (buttons 9 and 10).

Just go to the FSX assignments page (Options-Settings-Controls) and uncheck the option top left of the Calibration tab labelled "Enable controllers". If you don't do this FSX will sometimes automatically re-assign things.
