Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for this development.
If you have Xbox One controller, just press X button for 10 seconds instead of using this app.
This works perfectly for me in Windows 8.1 64 bit, with my official Xbox 360 controllers and official receiver. I just single click its shortcut in my Windows desktop bar to turn off all my controllers.
No admin privileges are required to execute it and from its single simple Notepad readable source file you can see it won’t do anything malicious when you execute it.

I’ve been using it for a few years now and it’s been turning off my controllers with a 100% success rate

Вспоминая времена, когда для пользователей персонального компьютера появилась поддержка контроллера XBox 360, вместе с поддержкой и соответствующими драйверами, тогда же была выпущена утилита Xbox 360 Accessories Software 1.2, которая, при удержании кнопки GUIDE на 360-ом контроллере (кнопка с логотипом XBox), вызывала на экран простенький бар, с информацией о порядковом номере геймпада в системе и состоянии батареиаккумулятора (при беспроводном подключении):

Ещё была любительская программка (Turn Off Xbox Controller), запуск которой мгновенно отключал беспроводной XBox 360 контроллер.

А что же интересного есть сейчас для геймпадов от Microsoft и не только? Давайте посмотрим.

Утилита Аксессуары XBox (XBox Accessories).

На смену консоли XBox 360 пришла консоль XBox One, на смену ОС Windows 7/8.1 пришла ОС Windows 10, на смену геймпаду XBox 360 пришёл геймпад XBox One, на смену Xbox 360 Accessories Software пришло UWP-приложение Аксессуары XBox.

Приложение Аксессуары XBox предназначено исключительно для геймпадов XBox One. Приложение умеет:

Обновлять прошивку XBox One геймпада:

Показывать статус заряда аккумуляторабатареек:

Менять местами (программно разумеется) кнопки геймпада и отключатьвключать вибрацию:

Активировать режим совместной игры (дублирует управление персонажем на два геймпада):

Неплохо, определённый прогресс на лицо. Но хотелось бы индикации заряда в реальном времени, а также предупреждения о низком заряде аккумулятора. Недавно я наткнулся на две соответствующих запросу утилиты.

Первая утилита — XBox One Controller Battery Indicator.

Эта утилита висит в трее и визуально показывает уровень заряда аккумуляторабатареек:

Поддерживаются такие варианты подключения:

XBOne + dongle;
XBOne Elite + dongle;
XBOne S + dongle;
XBOne S + Bluetooth;
XB360.

Если контроллеров больше одного, каждые несколько секунд иконка в трее меняет показания, попеременно для каждого геймпада.

Когда заряд источников питания достигает критически низкого уровня, программа сигнализирует об этом вот таким всплывающим окном:

Вторая утилита — XInput Battery Meter.

Эта аналогичная по функционалу программа, она также показывает заряд аккумулятора XBox-геймпада в трее.

Но помимо визуальной индикации на значке в трее, программа выводит всплывающий бар при подключенииотключении геймпада(-ов):

Остальные данные можно глянуть, кликнув правой кнопкой мыши по иконке программы в трее:

Требует установки. Скачать можно отсюда.

Порывшись в интернете, можно найти ещё парочку практически незаменимых программ для XBox-контроллера. На этот раз диагностических.

Первая программа из Microsoft Store — Game Controller Tester.

Эта программа предназначена для всех обладателей XBox геймпадов и любых других геймпадов с поддержкой XInput.

С помощью этой программы можно проверить:

Качество работы стиков;
Мёртвые зоны;
Работу кнопок;
Работу основных вибромоторов;
Работу виброкурков.

Скачать программу (только для Windows 10).

Вторая программа из Microsoft Store — Controller X.

В принципе то же самое, только морда приятней и платная.

Скачать можно тут (только для Windows 10).

Ну и, наконец, ещё одна полезная программка — Durazno.

Durazno — это XInput to XInput враппер для настройки ремаппинга осей и кнопок на XInput девайсах.
С помощью этой программы можно переназначить: кнопки, оси, курки, подкрутить мёртвые зоны и вибрацию, скрывать геймпад от игры.
Утилита работает с оригинальными контроллерами XBox и XInput-совместимыми.

Как пользоваться:

запускаем утилиту (геймпад должен быть включён);
жмём на светлый прямоугольник справа, чтобы открылись настройки ремаппинга;
настраиваем всё, как вам заблагорассудится, можно даже скрыть геймпад от игры;
кидаем xinput1_3.dll (в некоторых играх могут понадобиться и другие dll-ки из папки) и Durazno.INI в папку с EXE-файлом нужной игры. Для x64 битных игр используем x64 версию.

Скачать можно тут.

I have installed my drivers and paired the device up to the computer. I have given it a quick run through on Steam Big Picture mode to make sure it’s all working and behaving as I’d expect it to, but now I need to spend time doing something else. I have exited Big Picture mode but my Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for Windows has remained powered and doesn’t seem to want to switch itself off.

I have tried holding down the Guide button in the middle of the controller, which is how I switched it on in the first place, but this doesn’t appear to do anything. I also can’t find any other buttons on the controller that would seem to affect whether the controller is powered or not.

How can I turn off a Wireless Xbox 360 Controller for Windows?

If you’re playing a ‘Games for Windows Live’ enabled game, you should be able to shut it off through the fancy Windows Live menu that appears get when you press and hold the Guide button (the big green X in the center).

If you’re not playing a Windows Live, enabled game, it looks like you’re out of luck; the only way to shut off your controller short of popping the batteries out is to leave it inactive for a period of time (reports online vary; anywhere from 10 to 20 minutes seems to cover the range).

However, you’re not the only one who has been annoyed by this, it seems. I found a free utility for Windows that appears to give you some extra functionality when you press and hold the Guide button, and it allows you to shut off your controller through a brand new dialog box.

Check it out: Xbox 360 Controller Manager

Note: The english description is below the Hungarian one on the linked website.

Try this alternative application: https://sourceforge.net/projects/turnoffxboxcontroller/

From it’s sourceforge description:

This program have only one function.
Double click it and all Xbox Controllers will be turned off.

Program have no dialogs or settings.
It don’t required administrator rights.
It don’t running as service or startup application, after turning off controller program will exit itself.

You can add shortcut to desktop and configure hot key to turn off your controller.

Examining the source files leaves us with no doubts, its an elegant and simple solution.

#include "windows.h"
#include "xinput.h"

#pragma comment(lib, "XInput.lib")

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    HINSTANCE hXInputDLL = LoadLibraryA("XInput1_3.dll");
    if (hXInputDLL == NULL)return 1;

    for(short i=0; i<4; ++i)
    {
        XINPUT_STATE state;
        memset(&state, 0, sizeof(XINPUT_STATE));
        if(XInputGetState(i,&state)==ERROR_SUCCESS)
        {
            typedef DWORD (WINAPI* XInputPowerOffController_t)(DWORD i);
            XInputPowerOffController_t realXInputPowerOffController=(XInputPowerOffController_t) GetProcAddress(hXInputDLL, (LPCSTR) 103);
            realXInputPowerOffController(i);
        }
        ZeroMemory(&state, sizeof(XINPUT_STATE));
    }
    FreeLibrary(hXInputDLL);
    return 0;
}

Xbox 360 Controller Manager solves the problem.

…you can power off the wireless Xbox 360 controller with the long press of the Guide button at the center of the controller. Long press of the Guide button will popup the following message.

The app is only 343KB.

With the controller turned on, turn the controller sideways so that the triggers are facing your palm, then «pinch» it on the Guide button (thumb) and the battery holder (index finger) at the same time. Make sure you press on the middle of the battery holder.

This turns off both of my Wireless XBox 360 Controllers for Windows on Windows 10 without an external application. It doesn’t matter whether Steam is running or not. ~~I’m not sure whether this is OS/driver dependent. It is probably a hardware feature. If you take a closer look at the battery pack, there appears to be some sort of a switch on it.~~

I found this out the hard way by experimenting. Have had these controllers for years and always just left them to shutdown via timeout.

Unfortunately I appear to be the single person online that is turning the controller off this way. Most solutions suggest installing third party software. I’d be interested to know whether this works for other systems (it could be that both of my controllers are simply bugged).

Edit: I still have and use these controllers often. You don’t have to use the «pinch» described above to make it work. It suffices to apply pressure to the battery pack/holder, which cuts off power to the device. I’ve used them on non-Windows platforms (e.g.: Nintendo Switch via an adapter) and it shuts them off regardless. They don’t even have to be connected to anything. Probably a (useful) design flaw.

There isn’t any way that I have found besides popping the batteries out and putting them back in. It’s very annoying, and causes the batteries to run down far too fast.

There are two ways:

Turn off your computer
Get the battery pack or charging pack out.
