I'm so glad I stumbled across your channel Chris, getting rid of this bloatware is my new top priority.
Recently encountered an issue where my Razer software refuses to run, and does not uninstall either; coincidentally my Discord application also seems to experience the same problem at the same time! Last time I just went ahead and clean reset my whole computer since I couldn't seem to find a fix. It has happened again and I am done with Razer's software as I am sure it is the culprit.
If you happen to have a fix for me I'd love to hear it but regardless I will be taking the advice you provided here to heart!
Thanks
But I don't want RGB software controller, I want macro functionality controlling buttons and applications that launches for Razer products
If you have solutions I will be very appreciate it Chris
Great advice. All this time, I've just used Task Manager to disable it as a startup app but I neglected to check for other processes the install put in the system -- turns out all I was disabling was the GUI from loading and the processes were all still there in the background. Those sneaky bastards!
How did you disable everything else?
finally! waited for this so much since the nvcleaninstall video thank you
Hello Christ, first and foremost, Happy New Year! Well, as always I am learning something new from you, thank you so much for your dedication.
Very cool video Chris ! lot of things I did not know you can do. Thanks for the video and happy new year !
Great luminosity in your cam... dark, but crisp and smooth ... Great to watch in complete darkroom
Thanks, Chris.
This is a much needed guide.
I literally had to put up with the default rgb for the kraken headset because their drivers drove me crazy. thank you so much for shedding some light on this
I only use the software for my mouse but wondered if I could just remove it after I configured the dpi to 1600 and hz to 1000? Does it need the software to run or have a saved config for the mouse or does it just save the config onto the mouse and then you only need the software if you want to change something?
What about the macroing, and rebinding of buttons? I have a razer naga, with the swappable thumb pads, I have several of those numbered buttons bound to differ keys and macros
Thanks a lot Chris! I had no idea openRGB existed. Glad I can finally control my keyboard RGB without utilizing unnecessary resources.
Love your stuff. Learning so much from you. Thanks!
As someone who installed Razer’s driver just yesterday on a reimage of my PC, this video speaks to me on a personal level.
The master at it again
On a Razer note. How do you change the DPI if your not using the software?
What about controlling DPI and other gaming settings??
Thanks for this Chris I've wanted to do exactly this for a while now
was waiting for a video like this for a long time! thankss
I use Razer Synapse to control the button layout scheme and DPI settings for my mouse as well. Is there a better software that can do this? Thanks!
you have single handily fix my audio lag as a music producer ..ty good sir
What if you want to get more control over your mouse without synapse? I have a rezer headset and mouse and i need to change some settings such as dpi and hrz or switch from spatial to stereo based on what activity im doing. With openrgb i can control only the useless leds but i cant find a way to control my devices further whitout the razer bloatware. Are there any alternatives?
im not looking for the rgb but is there a way were i can make it faster im using the razer hunstmin mini with reds switches and also you can use ctrl f4 ect for rgb or for smaller keyboard fn ctrl
but is there a way where i can use razer makros without the software?
The part of the script that disabled driver auto-install, this doesn't seem razer specific. Does it disable ALL driver auto-installs?
Hello. My huge problem is that Synapse does not see my Razer Naga Trinity mouse. I can't even change her profiles because of this. But at the same time, all macros continue to work! How can I make this damn program see my mouse again?? Or! Is there any other software compatible with Razer products for creating macros?
what about macro alternative? i imagine that the cynosa built-in "on the fly" macro support would be an exclusive or proprietary kind of deal.
ive glanced at auto-hotkey but not enough incentive at the time to learn it or look at its scope of capabilities.....want macro to auto refresh buffs in game so every 12 seconds hit a key....
is this saying razer cortex bad? or what cortex provides isnt worth what it takes?.......
less trappy question. what are the benifits of cortex if any?
ty for all your work you have taught me alot =)
Great video. How about per game dpi changer? Are there any open source cool software for this specific purpose?
Hey chris, I used your command script to do all this with razer synapse but I recently got a hyperpolling wireless dongle and for some reason it is not showing in synapse. How would I undo your command script if I wanted to install the hyperpolling wireless dongle update to synapse?
I've had a Razer mouse for a few years. I'm glad to be running Linux now as my daily, as dealing with the Synapse bloat on top of all the Windows shenanigans was a PITA! OpenRGB is a great project, I just hope they can figure out RGB on more AMD GPUs.
rofl too bad linux can't support everything and has more problems to deal with unless you're just browsing the web and checking your email.
Yeah but it must be a pain in the ass configuring everything
@@user-xv9mq Yeah, that's why the Steamdeck runs Linux - to get those games from the 80s running. But the copium must be real, how else would you excuse giving all control of your hardware over to Microsoft and all your data too and to third party collectors as well. And then when the social credit system you helped implement is here, you will be all "I didn't know" and of course "I was just following orders".
That being said. Linux is for children.
@@user-xv9mq Yeah, if you want to play games like children do. I'm grown up, I run OpenBSD.
@@user-xv9mq Microsoft (among others) thanks you for your data. Have fun in the social credit system. Better not say anything against wokeness!
Always select CUSTOM option when installing programs, it's the golden ticket out of the bloatware prison. Uncheck everything but the core software you need, sometimes you have to click Decline once or twice but you avoid a lot of unnecessary evil.
Question how will i use 8000hz with my mouse and keyboard.. I thought i had to have tbe software installed to use it???
Hi!
I have a mouse Razer DeathAdder V3 Pro and I'd like to get ride of that bloatware, but if I'll do that I don't see when the battery drops to 40% (the moment when I'll plug it in for recharging). Do you guys know a method to overcome this?
I am having issues but with HP, how can I do this but without a script so I can choose the HP folder?
my friend bought new razer mouse, sad... anyways he uses macro gamer tool in razer software, is ther FOSS equivalent ?
im happy i switched to linux mint btw.
I don't have any razer hardware but there are so many installers in the "C:\Windows\Installer" directory. Should I remove it to clean disk space if I want to?
Does my Razer THX For Kraken V3 work without their software? And If it does how do I know?
So I know I can manual change DPI on the mouse but what if I wanted a custom DPI ? How do I change that without using there software ?
How do you get Razer devices to actually run at full volume? It seems like you have to have it to get any volume
I don't care about RGB, I use a Razer one handed keyboard and a Naga mouse, however, for gaming. I haven't found an alternative to controlling the keybinds for the Razer Tartarus and Naga.
Razer software is a personal nemis that made me regret buying their hardware that is otherwise really nice. Thank you SO MUCH MAN. How have they been allowed to keep this going? Seriously its almost like they made the software to gimp your system.
yep.... I gave all mine away, because I couldn't stand the software, anymore
I tried to dl open rgb but no matter what browser I use it says virus scan failed an wont let me dl it . any ideas ty
Hey Chris, what do you think about Asus' "Armoury Crate" - is this another tool that bloats our systems with services or do you think it is a great way to keep the system drivers up to date?
I would love to be able to get rid of the ASUS software on my laptop as well. It is definitely bloatware.
@@FinalManaTrigger I mean in the past i was used to check on updates two times a year on their website. And it was ok for me. I have pretty fast internet (for german circumstances lol) but Armoury Crate is slow af. Maybe there is a tiny programm like NVcleaninstall which can replace it.
i need use razer synapse 3.0 for control mi mouse and keyboard profiles , macros, but i don't need blootware you can make something to block unnecesarry process of synapse????
Openrgb does not detect my razer huntsman mini and i have searched for many fixes which didn't end up working.
how about control the DPI of my razer naga ?
I've fallen down the rgb rabbit hole. Fans, keyboard, gpu and ram. I decided that I wanted everything tied together to get best use of SignalRGB, but needed a controller for my fans. The Razor Chroma fit the bill, but I had no idea about all the stuff that comes with it. I would have checked it out if I was really happy with the way Signal is coming along.
I use Synapse to show me my Viper pro v2 battery life and to set dpi. What could I use instead?
If I only installed the first option (for mouse) is that okay?
A little off topic. How about a printer that i fully intend to use locally, but the software constantly asks me to create an online account. Weird.
The only issue I have with this is when installing windows, once it boots into windows and I have a Razer keyboard pluged in, it will prompt me to install their crap. Is there a way to stop this when installing windows? Other than NOT use a razer device when I'm installing windows.
So is it best to just uninstall and reinstall when updates are required and then uninstall again?
thats actually great I had no idea about openrgb. thanks for sharing
Finally! Thank you, Chris
Thank you thank you thank you. Not having alternatives was driving me crazy. I just wanted to display a static color
it'a all good but how do i make macro and bind key for different game etc... the only thing thatis good about razer!?
its safe to keep razer surround sound? i bought a 7.1 razer kraken
I have a huge problem with my Razer laptop on Linux. There is no sound in pulse audio or pipe wire from the speakers. Headphones work just fine, but are not always convenient. This is a very large problem, because I rely on sound only, because I am blind. Does anyone have a fix for this?
great video! but the only reason i actually use razer synapse is to set the dpi and polling rate of my mouse, i always turn off the lighting. is there any opensource software that can do that on windows 10?
Hey Chris, help me out, I am unable to instal; DirectX runtime on custom win 11 ISO (Gamer OS),
is there a way to run DirectX runtime
has the Nov2022 release fixed the stability issues? openrgb crashes on me more than runs.
Unfortunately i need the macros from synapse.
I just denied the check for updates on my firewall, so i will get stuck with this version of synapse and thats it.
Also remove the gameservice dependencies , so another process removed.
what about the dpi and macros and performance stuff ? how to control them after deleting all the razer software ??
cannot get open rgb to install...tried signal rgb but was getting issues while streaming netflix
is there a replacement for synapse fan control for cooling?
If you don't install their software how do you use synapse? Is there open source for changing DPI? Macros? If you don't use that stuff then why would you buy Razer in the first place?
Bought this Razer Kiyo Pro Cam and I was shocked that it installed this Razer Bloatware, pretty annoying but I’m not sure if the Can will work without it?
Isn't there software to control the mapping of the buttons of a mouse that works as well as the software from manufacturer?
No, in this case third party software does not work as well as software from the actual makers of the product. It's not MS, where others can write better software than the actual MS hardware engineers.
is it possible to change x and y for mouse after updeit?
Can u reassign mouse keys and change dpi without the synaps app?
I knew they were bad but not that bad. I would love to hear some cool server 2019 type of videos for cool security settings or configuration. Great video as always. mouhahahah:)
what about changing keymapping? i use a tartarus and i NEED to have the ability to change key mapping but now synapse is causing my games to have insane fucking stutters even after i tried their "fix"
I use SignalRGB which works for my Razer Trinity. I want to uninstall synapse but does anyone know of a remapping software that can work with the trinity for use with the 12 buttons?
Perfect! Could you please create a dedicated playlist with all videos to set up windows as fast and bloat free as possible? By the way, did the same to my essential phone as you did with your google pixel. Thanks so much!!!
You don need video ! you need Winutil from CTT (Chris Titus Tech) best debloat script for Win10
@@Thundra74 is there one for Win 11?
@@synen The script works for both Win10 and Win11
So, is Steelseries software in the same vein and should it be removed, too?
I don't like messing with permissions, it's too tedious and isn't portable (it doesn't work on FAT like flash-drives, and not all commands copy them between volumes). I try to adjust permissions as infrequently as possible. What I usually end up doing is to delete the target folder and create an empty dummy file with that same name then set the read-only, hidden, and system attributes. That works for _most_ things (like stopping Unity games from making an Analytics folder with thousands of files).
Wasn't there an exploit where you could plug in a newer razer peripheral. The installer would open and some way you could gain system level privileges?
In cases if I use Razer mouse then what I have to do? I'm a big fans of Razer V2 mouse
Can you provide a short url for that, like with the win utility? It will be highly appreciated. Thank you ☺️
Hello and thank you for all your videos. I had the issue with my Razer keyboard and pretty much did the same as what you featured.
The problem is that I lost the only feature I was interested in which is macros and I haven't found any solution so far. I wish you a very happy new year and once again thank you for the contents of your channel.
Try AutoHotKey. It takes a little bit of setup and the UI isn't as fancy as Razer's, but it's super powerful and is used widely.
look into QMK keyboards so you don't depend on some crappy proprietary -mal- software suite
@@Zeluph Thank for your answer. I will try it.
How do i revert the changes i can't open my razer software anymore
Is there any software that can change DPI for Razer Mouse?
Ability to disable automatic manufacturers installation you mentioned at 2:50, is the script available in your windows debloating tool on github?
Going to add it on the Next update.
If you don't mind, can you do a video on how to prevent windows from replacing my radeon drivers? please. None of the methods available online works. Thanks.
Thanks for teaching me this!
What about macros and keybinds how would we control that?
Just got around to watching the video. So you show how to do RGB settings. What about bindings and DPI settings? Macro's etc?
Is there an extensoin/ open source software for mouse/keyboard macros?
I have a razer blade stealth 2019 and I try sooo hardo to get it running with linux with the right drivers for the gpu and at least the rgb keyboard to work and is a nightmare...
Bro, I thought I deleted it and I had a bad feeling so i checked this video and it was still installed kinda just deleted everything that was in the folder.
I used to love using the Razer Orbweaver / Nostromer products (the software wasn't as bad back then).. Once I moved to Linux those controllers became kind of useless since they require the Razer software to change any keybinds. It wouldn't be as bad if those settings would be stored on the device itself, but they insist you use their software and so I stopped using their products.
Please show us how to block HP apps too. I can't block hp system analytics, it updates itself once in a while and starts the processes back.
What if I want to use mouse button macros? I don't care about the RGB.
Now what if you use synapse for the button configuration and stuff like that for the more
What if i what to use the sunapse 3 MACRO app?
I love their peripherals.. remember i built a new pc with a Ryzen 9 5900x and the new 7900 xtx. With razers bloatware installed i was idling around 40c+ and when i uninstalled it my idle temp went down to around 30c. this is unacceptable and a shame on their part. OpenRGB is awesome, still need to find a good lightweight macro program and I will be all set.
!!! I have a BIG problem!!! Anyone else have the same issue & found a fix?? !!!
The headache's I'm having with Razer products & I'm sure many others are the same but people who use Razer's software to change settings on the hardware it self???. The only reason I installed Synapse (The only piece of software I install when I'm prompted to install 500 other pieces of useless software) is to change my mouse DPI, Lift off distance, Power off time after inactivity ect.
The biggest issue of all is I have the Razer Death adder V3, Great mouse but as soon as I close Synapse (Through Task Manager) none of my settings save to the mouse. I've tried tones of research & tried every way possible to not have it pointlessly running in the back round constantly whilst gaming but none of my settings save to the mouse??, It goes back to the out of the box settings. (DPI button with colour coordinated dpi settings, Red - 400dpi Green 800-Dpi ect.).
So frustrating that YOU NEED to have there software open & running just to be able to use the product YOU purchased with YOUR own money to make sure its 110% functioning properly. Find it amusing that in the software settings under the "Auto Launch Synapse when windows starts" section it says "Note: Disabling Razer Synapse may affect your device's functionality." Key words there "May affect"... Bullsh*t more like "DOES affect it". Spend $250.00AU on a mouse that i cant use proeperly unless i run synapse. Any one found a soloution??
I use the software for mouse macro's. What would you suggest for that.
Same here, or more that I use diff sens on Y and X movement.
You're not wrong actually, I bought a razer viper ultimate earlier this year in a sale, and the software I flat out refused to install its horrible.
Wow. I literally just got a razer mouse for my birthday and I was so surprised about the bloat that came with it.
