Keyboard bricked after use - [VID/PID TBD] #51

scienceonvhs commented 1 year ago

i installed it and messed around a little bit and it wasnt quite doing what it was supposed to so im like i guess i'll just uninstall it but i have now been sat here trying to get this software or any other rk software to detect my keyboard (which has not happened once) and it does not type or anything at all. i plug it in, the lights come on i can even change the lighting on it i can reset the keyboard with fn + space and yet i cant do anything else on my keyboard. ive been trying to update drivers, reset my keyboard, restarting my computer multiple times, fucking ANYTHING that any reddit thread or article or video has said and NOTHING has fixed it. nothing will detect my keyboard and my keyboard will no longer type, all of this happening after installing this software. i dont know what the fuck else i can do but buy an entirely new keyboard to replace it. fuck this bullshit

This is not official software. I tested this primarily only on my keyboard. RK provides no documentation, there is absolutely nothing on the web about this. There is a disclaimer which makes it clear.

Sorry for your loss, that was never my intention. Please tell your keyboard vid pid and model name so that I can disable it for now.

these things happen when tinkering with your board, @rnayabed it might be a good idea to let people accept a big warning/disclaimer when opening the software.

Yes. I will add it.
