Great Divinity!!! trying to translate this w/out having to spend money was a b**ch!!!

simply put, there's no update/patch method that I can see written into the files (Outside of Drag, Drop Replace), but if you grab the "Read-Me" files in the folders of V1, V1.50 & V1.53 & take them to this site:

https://products.fileformat.ai/word-processing/translate/txt#

It will translate them all for you for free, I can't post the translations here due to Char Limit, but can vouch for the above site.

Translated Patch#1.53 Key Config, unfortunately the rest of the "Read-Me" files are still gibberish, but win is a win, I guess (Translation Below).

Program Name: DxLibKeyConfig

Use: Perform key config of joysticks in apps made with DxLib

Use:
Copy the winmm.dll and DxLibKeyConfig.exe to the folder of the app you want to key configure.
- Start the DxLibKeyConfig.exe and configure the settings.
Save and exit
Launch the app

Install:
Just copy the winmm.dll

Uninstall:
We do not tamper with the registry or temporary files.
Just delete the file and say goodbye to it.

Q&A:
Q: Is it possible that the saved data of the app will be corrupted?
A: It is implemented with the utmost care to prevent this from happening.
There is no foolproof guarantee.
If you are unsure, please back up your saved data before applying.

Q: Frankly, what do you use it for?
A: In an app that does not have a key configuration and can only be operated with the default settings
It is intended to enable key configurations.
So, if the app itself has a key config, you don't need to use it.

Q: Does any app that uses DxLib work?
A: I made it to work, but I haven't confirmed it.
If it doesn't work, please contact me and we will respond.

Q: I found other bugs, they don't work, or I have a request.
A: We will respond if possible as soon as we confirm.

Technical information (and irrelevant story):
The motivation for development was that ArcanumKnights did not support the key configuration.
I was actually thinking of including a key config, but I gave up because I didn't have enough time to work on it.
Although it says that it is only for DxLib, it does not strictly only work with DxLib.
However, there is only a hook in CoCreateInstance, the branch of Joy is determined to be 44, etc.
Since it is implemented according to the basic DxLib, it is rare for apps to work.
Even DxLib does not work when running in mode without DirectInput.
If you want to support it, you can replace the Joy-related part of the Win32 API with your own one with ChangeIAT.
I thought it also supported DirectInput8, but I don't know if it will work because there was no environment where DirectInput7 does not work.
When I uploaded it using my own library that was open to the public, I received a complaint that it was difficult to compile.
This time, I have archived the entire self-made library.
So, don't worry about some unnecessary features.
The reason for winmm.dll is that there was a risk of clashing with the same series of apps in d3d9.dll.
I also considered msacm32.dll, but when LoadLibrary is set to CoCreateInstance
I gave up because it was after I did GetProcAddress.
Since we wanted to make it a general-purpose application for DxLib, we did not do a fixed address search.
The project name of the DLL injection side is DisableDxLibJoy
This application is derived from an app called DisableDxLibJoy.
The compilation environment is Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 version 10.9.40219.1 SP1Rel.
