Logitech seems to suck at software. Why do you need an online account to remap your mouse buttons?
Same for the harmony 1100 which is a universal remote but can’t ever be programmed again since logitech killed their online server. It had the secret sauce for generating the binary blob to send the device to program it and nobody could figure out how this mess actually works to reimplement it. It seems like the blob wasn’t just parameters but also all sorts of scripts that changed with the config.
Needless to say I steer clear of Logitech anything now. It’s joined my blacklist along with Samsung and LG.

- vladvasiliu 28d agoThey ask you to create one if you want to save your settings or something. You don't have to go through with it. But the software does suck big time. The other day it didn't start on my machine because reasons. Had to remove it and reinstall it. Which had to remove my configuration, but whatever. Then, installation somehow went to 101%. But hey, at least it worked.
