Calibrate controller on Steam in 2024
Despite the controller settings window in Steam Big Picture having an option for "Calibration & Advanced Settings", all it lets me do when using my Xbox controller is adjust deadzones and test the controller - no ability to calibrate joysticks with stick drift, no ability to set anti-deadzones, nothing more sophisticated than that. Anti-deadzones can be set on a game-by-game basis, but not globally, and there's no option to calibrate anywhere that I can find.

All previous guides for Steam controller calibration seem to be for an older version of Steam with controller calibration options, or on Steam Deck (which seems to have more thorough calibration settings).

Anyone know how to calibrate controllers on Steam in 2024?

Here in 2025 and it seems like they still do not have a way to do this.
Much later in 2025, here, and frustrated with this still being the case.
