You can go into settings > input and change the device index, or you can unplug the controller you don’t want and plug in the one you do.
You can’t reliably just plug them both in and leave them (at least on Windows) because the OS initializes them in a random order on each boot. There is a utility called devreorder that can help with that, though.

If your controllers are recognized and autoconfigured, it will reconfigure the buttons each time you switch.
If they’re not recognized and autoconfigured, you can create autoconfig profiles for them in settings > input > user 1 binds. Just plug in one of the pads, go there, hit ‘default all’, then map your buttons and ‘save autoconfig’. Then, hit ‘default all’ again, close retroarch and when you re-open it, it should recognize and autoconfigure your inputs. Do that same process for the other controller and you should be all set.
