## Using a gamepad connected to the PC instead of the streaming device
Normally, Moonlight sends controller input from the streaming client which gets sent to the game by GFE. If you want to connect a controller to your PC instead of the streaming device, GFE can cause some problems because the emulated controller still appears to games as controller 1. Luckily there is a workaround for this. You'll need to rename the DLL that Nvidia is using to send controller input so it won't be used anymore. You may have to do the renaming again if GFE does an update, but it should allow you to use your controller normally on games that only support 1 controller.
* On GeForce Experience 3.0 and later, rename rxgamepadinput.dll to rxgamepadinput.dll.old in C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStreamSrv and C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStreamSrv.
* On older version of GeForce Experience (2.x), rename rxinput.dll to rxinput.dll.old in C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStreamSrv and C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\NvStreamSrv.
## Adding custom programs that are not automatically found
You can stream any almost any game or app by adding the EXE file to GFE manually (if it's not found by the automatic app scan). Open GeForce Experience, click the **Settings (gear) button**, click **SHIELD** on the sidebar, then click the **Add button** on the right. Browse to the app or file you want to add and click OK. You can rename the app using the **Edit button**.
