Protected "MotioninJoy" ([Move=Allow only administrators] (indefinite))
MotioninJoy , or more appropriately, MalwareohJoy, is a proprietary set of drivers available for Microsoft Windows, for the Sony DualShock 3 (DS3) controller. Due to various problems, it is recommended to use [[SCP Driver Package]] instead.
==Features==
*Multiple controller types available to emulate (DS1, DS2, DS3, Xbox, custom)
==Cons==
*'''Malware''': Is known to load '''sh.com''', a Chinese schooling website, in your browser when you open the included application, DS3 Tool (required to use the controller).
*It overrides your USB and Bluetooth drivers (Such as the Logitech Unifying Receiver), and can render them useless until you remove MotioninJoy MalwareohJoy and uninstall its associated drivers.
*Must open DS3 Tool every time you plug your controller in.
*Must select a profile each time.
Firstly uninstall it through Control Panel.
Next , run the Command Prompt as an administrator and type this:
pnputil.exe -e
Find MotioninJoy MalwareohJoy in the list that comes up and type:
pnputil.exe -f -d oem#.inf
Replace the # with MotioninJoyMalwareohJoy's number. If you had problems with Bluetooth devices after installing MiJ MoJ you should now reinstall your original Bluetooth drivers.
Finally, delete C:\Windows\System32\drivers\MijXfilt.sys to get rid of the driver file.
'''NOTE: '''MiJ MoJ will still be in your registry even after this, it ''shouldn't'' cause any problems, but you may want to open regedit Regedit and delete anything tied to MotioninJoyMalwareohJoy.
==Un-Installation Instructions with an overridden Bluetooth driver==
This method is confirmed to work in Windows 7 64-bit with a Logitech Unifying Receiver.
Like in Method 1, uninstall the MotionInJoy MalwareohJoy application from Control Panel. Then navigate to Devices and Printers and find the device that does not work. In the case of the Logitech Unifying Receiver, the device will appear in the list under its specific or a general name, but will not function properly.
Right -click the device and select Properties. Select the Hardware Tab, then click the Properties button.
In the new window, click Change Settings, authenticate, then click the Driver tab. Click Uninstall.
'''IMPORTANT STEP:''' On the dialog that pops up, check the box that asks if you want to delete the device software as well. Click Okay.
Remove and reinsert your bluetooth Bluetooth hardware.
==Alternatives==
If you have problems with the above driver package or if (for some reason) you MUST use MiJMoJ:*[http://betterds3.ciebiera.net/ Better DS3] is an improved frontend for MiJ MoJ that doesn't have advertising or stupid malware. It's worse than the SCP Driver Package, but better than nothing. [[Category:Controllers]]
