This mod is for those of us that use some form of a controller with the PC for Skyrim.
The issue is simply related to remapping the controls. The controls don't apply correctly and the UI tells one key for an action that matches the key binding you select but the actual key the game set is different (with my mapping my A and X, Y and B key pairs are swapped in menu but not in game while the UI still tells me to press B to close the menu yet requires Y to actually close the menu).
The issue only started occurring as of version 1.2 (version number may be wrong but is irrelevant) in the old Skyrim and persisted over to the SE. The file provided fixes the issue be restoring the control mapping that the game had prior to version 1.2. This fix works on both Skyrim and the new Skyrim SE.
