I see some companies like EHA use a file called kill xinput. But they normally won't share stuff to noncustomers

Are you looking to change mappings or turn the keyboard watching off altogether?

Either way, dunno if what you're after is possible with just xarcade-xinput, it doesn't actually watch what's running on your PC.

But there is an HTTP API:

I found a script that wil help me. But now I have a different problem.
I have the xarcade input folder in my C drive. It is the utilities folder of my Launchbox folder. I use a script to launch the .exe file:
Run, C:\Launchbox\Utilities\xarcade-xinput\Xarcade Xinput.exe --skip-ui Run, L:\LaunchBox\Games\Windows\Blades of Gory\nw.exe

But look at the location of the errors in the pic? It says D drive? IMG_8983

Pretty sure that's just related to how the .exe you're running was built, it doesn't have anything to do with where it's actually running.

The issue looks to be a typo, it should be LeftStickY.

Thanks. Never realized the typo. I removed the “I” where it appeared for up, down, left, right. The errors disappeared but now the sticks nor the buttons are not responding. I only played around with it for a few minutes so I’ll try again later on.
