I just bought my first Corsair product, I got the K95 Platinum XT and love this thing, but the iCue software does a number on my laptops battery even when I'm out and about and don't have the keyboard connected. or until I need a new set and try some other brand. I'm just going to have to lose that functionality until Corsair sorts this out. Unfortunately, the option to Save to Device is not available for the keyboard, or at least not my case (a K55). The Corsair services stay running and still use a bit more CPU than you'd expect from a keyboard and mouse (I can't speak for other devices) but a lot less than iCUE. You can uncheck Start on system startup in the settings menu. This will allow you to kill iCUE while retaining the mouse functionality. > Click the memory card button which saves to device > Click the hamburger menu to the right of Profiles What's held me back is I use functionality like sniper mode on my mouse and some of those extra keys and macros on the keyboard. I don't need my system to look like something from Pink Fluffy Unicorns. Besides, I'm an old guy and I don't need half of that childish rainbow eye-candy. This sort of thing has been going on for years and I'm sick of it and gotten to a point where I want to just uninstall and say goodbye to some of my mouse and keyboard functionality. I'm now getting 3.5 to 5% in the background and 7.5 to 10% when running the interface on a new i7-7700. The high CPU is even worse for me with the latest update to v3.20.80. I know I can use bat files, but the extra delay for cmd.exe is painful when compared to doing the same thing on my Logitech G13 that actually supports command-line-arguments on executed applications.I'd like to share my partial solution to this problem:.

I need this for controlling DisplayFusion trough command-line interface, to free up hotkey-mappings for other programs and games. If I on the other hand put "C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe C:\test\TestOk.txt" it just fails silently. If I put "C:\WINDOWS\system32\notepad.exe" in "Launch application settings" all is OK.

This is the main reason I bought a "K95 RGB".īut the iCue software lacks one basic feature, when you map a key to "Launch Application" it will not accept arguments to the program being run. I play some games that needs lots of "Alt-SomeKey" shortcuts and many programs wants the same shortcuts as default, so I'm running out of available keys to assign to unless I'm to remember lots of multi qualifier hotkeys. Hi, my Windows is suffering from hotkey-assignment-overload.
