k95 rgb platinum G Keys direct in Windows and Windows Search not working?

[Geward]

Hi guys,

I just unboxed my new K95 RGB Platinum and I already love this thing.

I tried to set the G-Keys up in OBS. I had a Keyboard with similar Macrokeys before. But I cant assign actions like start/recording to these G-Keys which kinda sucks, because they wouldnt interfere with any other keys. Is there a workaround for this?

And secondly I cant type in the windows search with this keyboard. However everywhere else it works which is kinda unusal I guess. When I start typing in there with my old keyboard it works. Could it be a problem that the keyboard is plugged into my powered USB Hub?

Thank you for your help!

Ok the Windows Search thing is working now. I did nothing, but im still glad it works again :)

You need to assign the G-keys to a keystroke or action. e.g. If OBS has a hotkey to start recording, Assign the G-key to that hotkey.
