Apart from the security issue, it's really annoying, too. Say you refuse to install the Razer device driver - after all the mouse will largely work fine without it thanks to HID. Every time you plug the mouse in, Windows re-runs the driver installer.
- maccard 5y agoHow often do you re plug in your mouse?
- garblegarble 5y agoPossibly multiple times a day if they're using a laptop dock

- ByteWelder 5y agoCorsair has something similar called "iCue". Even if you don't bother installing it, the default Windows driver pops up an advertisement for it: https://imgur.com/0fKRYLT https://imgur.com/0fKRYLT (as discussed at https://old.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/9ws0qi/corsair_now_forcing_desktop_popups_on_hardware/ https://old.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/9ws0qi/corsai...) Similarly, I've had Windows 10 spam me about a paid subscription for Dolby Atmos. This is just one of several reasons that I don't use Windows anymore.
- jareklupinski 5y agoI just got a Razer Kiyo webcam, excellent stuff, but I had to open regedit to get it to stop asking me if I want to install additional software every time I plugged it in or rebooted. It works fine without it, but whoever programmed this thing has never heard of a "No, and Don't Ask Me Again" Button. In regedit, F3 for razerinstaller and add a DWORD key "Start" with value "4" . Yea that's how far they went XD
