What is JoyToKey?
JoyToKey (or Joy2Key) enables PC game controllers to emulate a mouse and the keyboard input, so that windows applications and web games can be controlled with your favorite joysticks! Whenever joystick buttons and sticks are pressed, JoyToKey converts them into keyboard strokes and/or mouse movements so that the targeted application will work as if you are using a real keyboard and a mouse!
Joystick to Keyboard
JoyToKey is a shareware, but you can download the latest version for free. Try it on your PC to play various games and control general softwares with your joysticks! If you find JoyToKey useful, you can purchase a license key at any time from JoyToKey application menu.
Information
WARNING: Be careful with unofficial download sites
JoyToKey seems to be distributed in various unofficial websites, and some of them seem to be distributing a tweaked software (or "download manager") to install extra applications on your PC.
They are not official distributions, and the author of JoyToKey is not involved in any of those activities. Unless you have a good reason to trust those unofficial websites, it is strongly recommended to download JoyToKey from the official download page in order to avoid unnecessary troubles.
(There does exist some useful 3rd party websites though, for example, a site for people with disabilities which packages JoyToKey with a pre-defined configuration pack for PC accessibility)

Note: There is no change in the email address, which can be found in JoyToKey application menu: Help -> About.
