Thank you so much! :)

Any chance of this getting onto Github or something? Would love to help out or at least let us keep it alive over time.

Very clever implementation for idle profiles and the likes! Thanks for all the hard work.

Hi there guys. Please help me to figure it out how to make my corsair keyboard rainbow effect when I afk and static green when i touch any key or mouse. Im trying to do with guide setting 1st profile with rainbow eff and linking to the profileEXE1 and setting 2nd profile with green to the TriggerEXE and as a default one in CUE. But this not working.. colors doesn't change when I afk for 1 min or even 10 (set 1 min in IDLE). Im pretty new with all the stuff and little brainless with this :D

I get the same error since Win10.

right after the windows start. I can click on continue or end. If i click on continue, the idlekey programm opens and i can click on enable and it works.

[alchn]

If I use IdleKey to switch to a 'blackout' profile, is there a way to also set the numlock to off (and turn it back on when the keyboard/mouse is moved and switch back to my normal profile)?

Because when the keyboard back-light is off I want all indicator light (numlock, caplock, scrolllock) to be off too.

[Elestriel]

Unfortunately, there's no way to control the Lock indicators.

i don't think u can switch off the numlock etc keys off, as they are essential indicators, think corsair mentioned they cannot be disabled/changed colors somewhere.

HTH.

I too am getting this error. I just hit continue and the program launches but it doesn't seem to be working. I went through the setup again and still no dice.

[ahnsolo]

Any way to have this activate on keyboard idle only not mouse idle?

as in I want the idle profile to activate when im not using my keyboard but still using mouse

[Jester92800]

I'd just like to echo what some others have said regarding windows 10-- When I load the program I get the following error message (previously posted in French, I believe, so for the English speakers, I repost it here)

The program then gives me an option to continue into the program, at which time the program boots normally. However, I am unable to force the profiles to switch automatically-- it doesn't seem able to run the transition properly.
