Thanks. The app is free to try for 30 days.
However, I can already see open issues that mention requiring the proprietary software from Logi to be installed in order for all the buttons and wheels to work.
Having said that, I will use it for a while before forming a concrete opinion.
I started boycotting Logitech when they started automatically downloading and installing Logitech Download Assistant through Windows update as soon as you connect a Logitech device to your computer.
That is unforgivable to me, when connecting a device, the only thing that should be downloaded and installed is the driver, nothing more, if you need the extra functionallity you should need to get it manually.
I would have no issues with it if Windows asked to download anything other than the INF driver file and respected a "No", both M$ and Logitech are at fault here.
Dell does the same thing with some of their office keyboards. If you plug it in, you get zero-click PUP and it's not trivial to delete.
Dell is shit for doing this, MS is shit for allowing it in the first place
Yes. This was literally the concern I raised back when MS introduced this automatic zero-click bullshit and I was told I was paranoid; Microsoft would never let that happen! Now we're here.
You can still download the previous major version, which is free.
I am fine with paying for the software as long as it provides the functionality.
$10, supports a independent dev. Seems worth it.
