    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.
