thanks, tried that but didnt work. pretty sure the switch is malfunctioning mechanically since if you even breathe on it you can see it trigger (literally breathe on it, i have it set to change colors whenever a key is pressed) thankfully it is disabled now so i am happy.
i first bought a k95 cherry red that came out of the box and loved it but it came with a D switch that did not work, and my replacement ended up as a speed switch since they did not make the one i wanted anymore. have always hated this thing ever since. Definitely never ended up with what i wanted or what i even purchased. anyway, thanks again.
