To make use of all functionalities of your Logitech keyboard, you need the accompanying Logitech software. Without the latest version of this software, your keyboard might not even function properly.

Click on 'Downloads'

- You'll now see all keyboards within this category. Find your keyboard and click 'More'.
- You've now arrived at the support page of your keyboard. Click 'Downloads' for an overview of the latest apps and software, such as SetPoint, Unifying Software, and Logitech Options.
Step 2: download the software
- Choose the software you want to update and click 'Download now'. You'll see the progress of the download at the bottom of the screen. Note: I'm using the Logitech Options software in this example.
- Click the .exe file when it has finished downloading. A pop-up appears: 'Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?'. Click 'Yes'.

Do you already have the software?
Do you already have the software installed on your computer or laptop? In that case, it's important to check if there's an update available. Open the software. I'm using Logitech Options as an example here. Click 'More' and then click 'Software'. If the box next to 'Automatically check for updates' is checked, your software is up to date. Is the box not checked? Read the following steps to update the software.
Step 4: update software
- Click the button 'Check for updates' under 'Software'. If there's an update available, a notification will appear at the bottom of the screen.
- If you click on this, a pop-up appears asking ''Do you want to allow this app to make changes to your device?'. Click 'Yes.
Now continue at step 3.1 and follow the steps for installation of the software.
