PJP’s JoyIDs is a lightweight utility that helps you manage the order (IDs) of game controllers recognized by Windows. By letting you promote the desired gamepad or joystick to the first position, it ensures older titles that only read “Controller 1” pick the right device. The interface focuses on clarity and speed, making it easy to view connected controllers and swap their IDs for smoother gameplay and fewer input conflicts.

Key features:

Displays connected game controllers and their current IDs
Reorders or swaps joystick IDs to set your preferred primary device
Useful for legacy games that only detect the first controller
Simple, no-frills workflow suited to quick troubleshooting and setup
