Does your bot have full access rights?

[Robot(TimeZone = TimeZones.UTC, AccessRights = AccessRights.FullAccess)]
public class YourBot : Robot
{

thanks alot, i changed the accessright to fullaccess and that problem solved but unfortunately i get new erro:

09/03/2023 15:36:36.527 | CBot instance [Sample Hotkey Trading, AUDUSD, h1] crashed with error "Crashed in OnStart with SharpDXException: HRESULT: [0x80040154], Module: [SharpDX.DirectInput], ApiCode: [DIERR_DEVICENOTREG/DeviceNotRegistered], Message: Class not registered "

error refers to this part of code:

 protected override void OnStart()
        {

            
            directInput = new DirectInput();
            var joystickGuid = Guid.Empty;
            foreach (var deviceInstance in directInput.GetDevices(DeviceType.Gamepad, DeviceEnumerationFlags.AllDevices))
            {
                joystickGuid = deviceInstance.InstanceGuid;
            }

            joystick = new Joystick(directInput, joystickGuid);/////////////////////<<<<<<<<<<here is the error
            joystick.Properties.BufferSize = 128;
            joystick. Acquire();

}

Is your "joystickGuid" variable still empty after that for loop? I have not used this library before, but that's what I would check first.

A quick search found this, if you look here, they are searching for DeviceType.Joystick if there is no result for DeviceType.Gamepad

thank you very much for your guide.

the problem solved and i can read the joystick keys in the cbot but one last question, i use onTick to trigger the key press which is not suitable, i want to get trigger as soon as user press any key on the joystick, how can i solve this problem?

I'm not familiar with the library - are there any events that you can consume for a key press? If not, you could always query it on a timer.
