Quick Fixes: Logitech Gaming Software doesn’t work in Windows 10 [2018 update]
- Try to disable (not uninstalling) Windows Defender and any antivirus or anti-malware on your system and run Logitech Gaming Software. Some of LGS processes may be seen as harmful even if they aren’t. 2. In case this does not work for you, there is another quick fix to try: Try to launch LGS installer directly from LGS folder. You can find this folder in /user/user/AppData/ or simply search for it with Windows search feature.
- The last solution, but ONLY for advanced users, is: – Fix the exact time before launching LGS installer and launch it – In case LGS restarts your system, open Event Viewer – Search right before and after the time LGS restarted your system to see what causes the conflict You can also try to uninstall and delete all data about LGS (we recommend a dedicated tool for that) and enter Safe mode, download it on Desktop and installing it again, that may work as well, but it really depends on your Windows version and system compatibility. Let us know in the comments if some of these solutions worked for you. Update – a big thank you to all of our readers who left comments with possible solutions, so just head below and have a look, just in case you might find a working fix for you.
