    Controller having bumper issues, something called "drifting"

    I have cleaned my thumbstick with the toothpick, but it stills drifting?

    Controller drifts forward but only in-game

    It also doesn't drift all the time. It will drift after a second or two of not touching the thumbstick.

    As others have said, its probably just an issue with the controller and doesn't have a software related fix

    Try to clean a base of thumbstick with cleaning alcohol. If that not helps, there is no other solution. Only the new controller.
