Simple to Install and Use
on March 14, 2018
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
This review is for the SimpliSafe - Protect Home Security System – White. There are many versions you can buy. The basic part of the system will be the same i.e. the keypad and the base unit. If you want to look into the pricing and purchasing options, you can go to their website at https://simplisafe.com/ and a very nice interactive system will help you choose what you may want for your home.
The system I got had the base and keypad and 4 door-entry devices and one motion detector. I could add other devices like glass breaks or smoke detectors to my system. The pricing for various items is about 20% or so of the price for competitors’ devices so SimpliSafe turns out to be very cost effective. I did research and only SimpliSafe devices will work with their base unit but since the SimpliSafe prices are better that is fine with me.
This system does not take technical skill to install, it is super easy. They provided a step-by-step guide and I had the entire system programmed in less than 10 minutes. I have had other systems: CPI and ADT and currently have ADT and they seem overly complicated versus SimpliSafe. Simplisafe provides a method to tape the devices securely in position by doors, windows or walls so installation is very fast and no complications.
The devices worked flawlessly over my entire house range. SimpliSafe has made the usage of the system likewise simple; you have the 3 needed modes, OFF, AWAY and HOME and there is a button for each. The ‘smarts’ are built into the system – I love it. If you want the system to have the monitoring, you will need to connect it to your WiFi or it can use cell towers to report alarms to their monitors who will call police or fire. You need to connect it to your WiFi in any event to check for and download upgrades.
Now SimpliSafe does not lock you into a contract. In fact you don’t need to have a monthly service, you can set up the system and if you get an intruder there will be a loud siren if the passcode is not entered in time. The system will show you messages to help you understand any alarm activity including if the power went out (there is a built-in back-up battery to run the base unit for 24 hours and all devices including the keypad run off batteries.
The monthly service rates if you want ‘monitoring’ are about 20-30% of what the other services cost. I did read that if you want to cancel the service it is instant – the other services make you wait 90 days after you send them a written notice of cancellation.
I plan to cancel my other service and utilize Simplisafe. I also will expand my system. Another use I spoke to my wife about is to have a second base unit and keypad and a couple entry devices, that I can take on vacations where we stay in cabins and I can set it up in 5 minutes so when we leave the cabin we will have an alarm system.
I recommend SimpliSafe, they got it right I feel and their system has a quality feel and is well designed.

Excellent Sound Quality and Added Functions
on March 12, 2018
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
This unit is very solid construction with quality materials and designed very well. I like the ease of pairing it with my Desktop. I also paired it with a Sling AirTV box and cell phone everything is simple to do. The speaker is great for enhancing your PC speaker situation – beautiful sound, lots of bass. Sound can be very full and deep like you might hear in a theater during the murder scene nice – it does as they say create a 3-D feeling sound.
One cool feature is the lights, you get flashes, strobes and it is not overdone, I liked it playing with the lights while I did other work on the computer. It also has a nice audio-in jack for devices you can’t pair it with. It has a 24 hour charge and this was verified per my own testing.
There is a feature that younger folks and/or party folks would enjoy where you can chain up to 100 of these together using Bluetooth. Nice feature if you consider the tremendous sound and flashing lights that would be produced for a party or reunion. It is waterproof and can be submerged without hurting its electronics or materials – though I didn’t try this.
Interesting app called Sony Music Center can be installed which I did. I did not opt for buying songs but I did utilize the app to easily pair the speaker with my Android phone. Music played by YouTube was much clearer and more Bass than even my Jensen Moto-Mod produced (and the Moto-Mod is pretty nice sound).
Lastly there is a really well done Help Guide you can refer to online. The basic set up instructions came with it. But you will want to go out to http://rd1.sony.net/help/speaker/srs-xb31/v1/h_zz/ and check out the all the functions and instructions. One example is you can use this speaker with the Sony Music Center app for connection to SIRI and Android voice assist units – pretty neat.
Overall I would highly recommend this unit for its sound quality, lights and its added functionality.

Deluxe Capabilities and Sound
on March 9, 2018
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
These earbuds are a deluxe version. They are super soft foam earbuds that have what they call “Cush Fins” that catch just right in your ear to keep the ear buds in but with really nice comfort. Several sizes of bud inserts are provided so you can get the size just right for your ears. Also the cable can be adjusted to the correct length for each person – so JLAB has figured out how to ensure you can where the earbuds all day and they are comfortable and don’t get in your way.
The normal Bluetooth connectivity is provided and it is easy to connect with a cell phone or with a computer or even a TV. I really liked the extra technology of noise cancellation in ear buds. The cancellation worked as well as my headphones – amazing. The sound is also outstanding – nice bass and treble as well as midrange coverage. JLAB includes an adapter that can connect to any 3.5mm jack so you can watch movies on planes or connect to the headphone jack on a PC for example – and you don’t need to be charged.
I connected to a phone and a PC and the controls were intuitive and so easy to use just by sense of feel. I also connected to a Smart TV in the bedroom so that I could watch TV and only I would hear the audio. The Bluetooth connectivity of course had no problem with the extra distance from the TV (about 15 feet). I would recommend these earbuds, they are very well designed, sound great and have the extra comfort and versatility that make them of higher value than the standard level of buds.

Future of Entertainment Systems
on February 21, 2018
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
The Sling AirTV is an outstanding product and I have thoroughly enjoyed just getting used to how well it is designed and the quality of the product. The system I got included the control box, an AirTV USB thumb drive and the remote. Each item is very solid. In fact they include an extra USB extension cable as this cable may be useful for your setup to facilitate adding a USB thumb drive to the control box to enable the future recording of local channels feature. I tested the thumb drive and it is recognized and you can configure it easily for internal storage. You are best advised to create a SlingTV account and my package included a $50 certificate toward the cost. The system works best of course if you have an active account. There are various levels of membership but the simplest is Orange at $19.99 per month. You would have to pay just $5 more per month for DVR capability. I found the installation of the product simple; I tested it on an HDTV, a computer monitor and also on an old analog TV (it did not work on the old TV as I expected even though I tried with an HDMI to RCA jack converter cable). Once you are enrolled, you can connect SlingTV to any PC Laptop, Desktop, or use the cell phone app. I have to tip my cap to SlingTV: you have a package that integrates use on all these platforms with the ability to include local ‘free-over-the-air’ channels. If you did not want to pay for a SlingTV account, you could simply use this product as an over-air converter box and you have a great channel guide feature which is not on the old-style converter boxes (which I also tried for comparison). The over the air channels were crystal clear video and audio, you do need a good over-the-air TV antenna of course. One feature that was annoying was an audible announcement of every button you pressed, good thing you can just configure this voice off. Another feature I liked is that you can pair the device with any Bluetooth speaker which in my case was necessary as I had a 32 inch monitor which had no speakers but did have an HDMI input. Initially the audio was a little off, but then everything worked fine once I turned the SlingTV box off then on – that may have just been me. You will love the ability to create you own custom list of MyTV channels which gives you easy access to your favorite channels no matter where they are sourced from. The provided ‘install and use guide’ is very brief but you can easily discover how to do things because the device is intuitive and well thought out. I did have to call support because my promotional key (for the $50 did not work. Support was excellent and even after fixing the problem they made sure I could go back and log into my account and view channels on the monitor (by the way the problem was a temporary glitch where Chrome would not work right with SlingTV but IE did; later all browsers worked but the support person fixed me up fine. Finally, someone is putting out a product that pulls all the sources together without having to switch your source connection. I would highly recommend this product for it’s design and quality and also because it is a factor of 10 times less that a cable contract but with more capability. Wonderful. I love it.

Bulb and Hue App Work Great
on December 20, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
These bulbs are fantastic. First of all they are very high quality, not cheap construction. They are LED and inside the bulb is WiFi circuitry. As is normal with devices that are distributed in your network, you do need to purchase a special HUB to communicate to the devices. At first this might seem unnecessary for example if you have other smart HUBs, and want to just connect via those HUBs to the Hue Philips smart bulbs, but you cannot without the additional Hue HUB. This is true for Samsung Smart Home and also for Alexa type devices. You will need to purchase the Hue HUB, but my feedback is that you are better off anyway as you will see that you have unique options and setup within the Hue HUB/App that will indeed work better with the Hue smart bulbs. You can connect Alexa once you have the Hue Hub as well as the bulbs and use voice control. So buy the HUB and download the Hue Philips app to your phone. The HUB is not expensive. This Hue App will make it very simple to set up and use your bulbs. Now you can alter the colors if you have color LED Hue bulbs or change the kind of white light with other bulbs. This is great for getting the right light for what you are doing like reading or brighter for assembling electronics or whatever. The HUE app is very well done and professional, easy to use and never fails. The app also has some canned lighting setups for a particular ambience you may like - so that's another benefit of the Hue App.
One piece of feedback is important and I did not know this till I tried it. If you configure a bedroom light for example into your smart lighting setup, you might think that you will need the cell phone to turn the light on and the cell phone may be off charging or otherwise not available. Not to worry, flip the light switch off then back on, and the bulb will light - that's smart design by Philips even though it sounds simple. However, when you shut the bulb power down and back on, any special lighting color for that bulb that you had set is removed and you’ll have to set up your colors and brightness levels again. I definitely recommend the Philips bulbs and HUB, it is another correct step in automating your home.

Beautiful Sound and Great Voice Recognition
on December 11, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
The Harmon Kardon Invoke is similar to many products that allow you to use voice control to handle Smart Home devices from locks, to thermostats and many others. It also can interface with items I already have such as Smart Things. It is simple to set up and pair with your phone or a computer – I did both without any problems. The sound from the speaker is fantastic. You can also make phone calls via Skype. You can ask for songs like I did to play something for example like harmonica music and Invoke will find something and play it for free on iHeartRadio etc. Invoke will also find individual songs. If you need a quick fact, ask Invoke and it will look it up and tell you the answer – nice when doing crossword puzzles when I get stuck. I was able to connect it to use it via voice to change temperatures on my Honeywell thermostat. The possibilities are endless. It is priced similar to other devices but I found it’s construction more solid than others as well as the ability to recognize what I say is excellent even when the dehumidifier is running near it. I do recommend this product.

Comfortable and Rugged Sport Watch
on December 9, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
My first feedback which may not be as important to some people is that this watch is super comfortable. I often forget I'm wearing it unless I need to check the time or start a workout. I actually set it up both on my phone and my PC. I did focus on using the application on my PC and it is very clear and useful. The charger is a one of a kind which I didn't like but it does charge and connect the watch to your PC USB port and the application automatically senses the watch and uploads your workout data. The watch has a very accurate heart rate monitor, I tried to check my heart rate by holding my wrist and with the watch and it was very close. The watch is rugged and band design fits the watch flawlessly.
The watch does have GPS to track your workout or you can skip using the GPS in case you are indoors on a treadmill which I also did. The big buttons and simple interface make the watch more useful. It does have many features to track recovery time and many other factors in your workout. I did wear it in the shower and it did not cause any problems. I would highly recommend this watch for people who want more than steps or stairs climbed but want a full array of workout tracking. Finally the screen is viewable at any angle I was very pleased with the clarity also.

Thorough and Well Designed Security
on December 5, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
I installed Bitdefender easily and it immediately seemed very user friendly. You can select an ‘Autopilot’ mode and that will take care of most interactions you need with the tool. I did notice that like most, you have a quick scan and an in-depth scan. I do have Norton on some PC ‘s and McAfee on one and now Bitdefender on another. It was apparent that McAfee was slower and Bitdefender was the fastest of the three just based on doing different work and looking at the Task Manager for clues on CPU utilization – I know that is not absolutely scientific but Bitdefender did pass at least an eye test to be faster and bog your computer down less. I did research and in fact the ranking that I most frequently saw was Bitdefender first, Kaspersky, Norton and McAfee last – so that made sense. I did find that McAfee, Norton and Bitdefender did find the same problems and cleaned them up. I liked that Bitdefender also found out if you had down-level software programs and also let me know if I had Windows updates waiting. Some people will wonder if Bitdefender cleans up Rootkits and it does not, but it tells you it does not. However, you can get a free tool from Bitdefender to clean them up (if they are known) called Bitdefender Rootkit remover – think of comparable programs like Norton Power Eraser. You also have a complete suite of programs like Rescue Environment (Bitdefender Rescue Mode allows you to remove any viruses from your computer as well as scan all storage drives outside your operating system), Ransomware protection and so forth. It is the most complete security software I have used.
Another feature I liked was that Bitdefender has its own browser toolbar to act as a traffic cop for suspect sites. The Bitdefender toolbar is called Bitdefender Traffic Light and it adds a layer of security to your browsing experience – I liked it a lot, and you can add it in addition to Bitdefender or actually you can add it even if you don’t have Bitdefender installed.
The price is very user friendly as well. Take a look at more details here: https://www.bitdefender.com/media/html/2018/cl35off/?pid=35off&cid=aff|c|ir I was impressed with this program and would recommend it. I had heard of it, but never used it before. Check out the complete Bitdefender toolbox and I think you will also be impressed. I do recommend this program, specifically the Bitdefender Total Security version.

Excellent Intuitive Document Processing
on December 4, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
This program is outstanding. You will realize the power of Adobe Acrobat DC once you begin using it. An excellent way to start is to use the provided tutorials and built in ‘Help’ facilities; and also you can rely on YouTube videos for help. I have always been aware of PDF files and the free ‘reader’ and the fact you can’t edit them unless you have the editor that costs. But the cost is justified based on the abilities you will now have. Acrobat DC does allow you to create, export and sign PDFs anywhere. You will want to take advantage of the free Adobe Creative Cloud for storage.
The design of the program is very smart, for example when you edit text the program will match the fonts automatically including colors and styles. You can organize pages and easily rotate pages as needed or drag and drop to re-order content.
You can track and manage files and also get e-signatures to record that a document got a sign-off if needed – more of a business function, but it’s in there. You can convert Word and Excel files into PDFs. Operations are very intuitive especially if you are used to other tools like Adobe Photoshop Elements or MS Word. Tutorials you’d want to view are at: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/tutorials.html#fundamentals
I recommend this program if you have been frustrated with getting PDFs that you want to alter or if you basically need the ability to create and edit PDFs. It is well worth the effort to view the excellent tutorials provided by Adobe or others to become expert yourself.

Powerful & State of the Art
on December 2, 2017
Posted by: RalphHenry
from Youngsville, NC
This blender has a simple powerful design. The motor is loud but if you use a blender to crush ice and really mix items it will be noisy anyway. The base sits very firmly on the counter so the blender stays solidly in place at all speeds. One of the most elegant features of this brute is the touch panel. You do get 8 speed ranges and a pulse area, but you also get several buttons to do things from light mixing to ice cream to hot soup. When you choose a speed a counter appears to tell you how many seconds have elapsed and if you want to stop you hit a lit up red 'X'. When you choose an icon like ice cream, it will go through a programmed cycle of speeds low then high to do the correct mixing - same thing for each icon, the blender will change speeds on its own to complete the desired type of blending. It will also count down the cycle on the displayed timer so you know when it will stop. A very important point is that the gear on the top of the base and the gear it meshes with on the bottom of the carafe are both strong metal not cheap plastic. In addition the gear has many beveled teeth. This means it is easy to mesh, has great interconnection and won't break. My wife and I made ice cream using the Blendtec recipes. In this case the recipes are incorrect. If you read feedback most people find the results are a thin milkshake instead of soft serve ice cream. A correct recipe for example would be 14 oz frozen strawberries, 3/4 cup half-and-half and 5 oz of sweetened condensed milk - the blender will turn this into ready to serve ice cream in under a minute. I was very pleased with this blender, it is a big step over the 'normal' blenders.

4 out of 5Great Blu-Ray DVD Player for the money
By JulieAS
After buying this product, I am both pleased yet a little disappointed! I needed another player to replace my 5 year old Sony 3-D player (also bought at BB) because it was no longer compatible with YouTube. Since my TV is an LG, I decided to buy an LG player.
The LG BP550 is smaller than my older Sony (another reason I chose it) and has fewer apps but I really didn't care about that as long as YouTube worked and that it also had Netflix and HuluPlus apps. Hooking it up and installing it was quick and easy and completing the system update was also a breeze! Already on sale, I saw it was also available as an Open-Box item so I thought I could save even more buying it at that option...NOT!
Advertised as 'Open-Box Excellent Condition' I ordered it on May 13th and it arrived on the 15th - without the remote! Maybe I shouldn't have assumed that an item labeled as "Returned, used as display model in store, or opened due to packaging damage but remains in like-new condition" meant or means that all accessories, cables, manuals, remotes, etc. are included.
Fortunately, my TV remote was able to do some of the basic stuff for installing and some playback features but that's it. So I make a call to BB and learn that the 4-yr Protection Plan I paid for would not cover this missing remote and was then advised to call LG for a 'free' replacement.
Customer service at LG then directed me to call their authorized parts dealer for my time zone. Of course, they were closed on Saturday and Sunday!
I called the parts dealer today (18th) and was told to contact the retailer since I'd "recently purchased the item and it should be returnable/replaceable under warranty". I explained that I had been informed that it was not and that I was told to call them by both BB and LG!
Subsequently, I was given the part number and price for a replacement remote!
Well it looks as if buying Open-Box didn't save me much, if anything, after all since the replacement remote has to be paid for out of my pocket!
I may be better off returning this player and buying a NEW one instead!
I may be better off returning this player and buying a NEW one instead!
However, I must say that I do like the player for what features I have been able to access while using my TV remote! I look forward to obtaining the full benefits and features when using the actual remote control for the BP550!

Remote Replacement
May 28, 2015
It's not ideal but if you are missing a remote and/or lose or break it, you can easily download a smartphone app to run it. You could also program a multi device remote like the Harmony 650 which I did. So nowadays a missing remote is not a show stopper but I agree it should have not been missing.

2 out of 5Great box - poor fonts
By Jasonrn
I purchased this with great excitement. I mostly do everyday things, with an evergrowing photo collection. I bought Adobe creative cloud and was ready to go. Fired it up and was shocked at how bad the text looks. I have tried many different settings. I don't know if it is a scaling thing? I love everything else about the unit. Photos look great. I dont game.
The text issue is varies. Some apps, it looks fine... others - terrible. Also, some apps don't scale well at all on the 4K screen.
May return the unit and get a laptop I can plug a second monitor in for my photo work.

Fix for fonts didn't install
November 3, 2015
The expert pointed to a download and it did not install. I'm glad since I think you just need to go to settings and find the 'cleartype text' setting and run through it to make fonts great. Also I see many of the apps will fix drivers and so forth so there is a learning curve now to see how to run these machines.

Also has 3D display capability which is good for future needs for me. Sound is nice with Jensen speakers. Touch screen is great. WIFI is super and has both 2.4 and 5 GHz ranges with Wireless AC.

Tips For Better Text on AIO 700
November 4, 2015
I've played with the font's and you may also want to scale text or make it bold for example if you use Windows Live (you can do that within Display Settings). The other tip is that the text is very clear but small so you may find that enlarging text by hitting Ctrl and + (together) once or twice will make some things easier to read. You hit Ctrl and - together to reduce. I didn't use those commands as often on other machines, but it is beautiful to use at times on this machine. By the way videos are wonderful if you use something like Amazon Prime video etc WOW

Lenovo Fix for AIO 700 24ISH
November 5, 2015
Jason, I did think ClearType helped a little but the scaling and putting 'bold' on helped more. I did see the fix that Lenovo posted. First I flashed the BIOS which they also posted as of 9/10/15. However when I tried their special fix for the font scaling it is an .rar file and I had to load WinZip (free version for now) but it did unpack it. However I never saw it run successfully as it always returned an error code. I am going to call Lenovo on that but the text looks pretty good so maybe it actually ran. I'll post an update on that. By the way the support at Lenovo is abysmal.

By Brandon
It worked for a few hours right out of the box. Then I noticed the screen flashing and the graphics cards crashing. After a reset it freezes after 5 minutes of use. Not sure if it's the pc itself or driver issues with Windows 10, either way it's not worth the trouble. If they can fix these issues then it is absolutely worth the price.

Try Driver Updates & Flash BIOS
November 5, 2015
If you still have it and if it will stay up long enough, I'd say go to Lenovo's web site and download the newest BIOS, it's easy to update BIOS now. Then go into Device Manager and update both Display drivers. If you bought an open box, I'd also try to reload the whole machine to the factory settings (or BestBuy should do that for you). But if you go to the apps, the app called Lenovo Rescue System will do it for you pretty easily. Then do the stuff I mentioned above.

Checked on Font Scaling Fix
November 5, 2015
I couldn't get the download from Lenovo's website to install. I downloaded and unpacked the fix, but it returned an error code when I ran it. I spent 40 minutes with Lenovo 1st and 2nd level support. They pretty much had no info on this fix. They didn't open a problem ticket 8005969635. Also their website said you should post a request online to have them call you back, but their process was broken in that area also. Full disclosure: even without this fix, the screen looks awesome to me.

Successful Adjustments for FONTS
November 5, 2015
Lots of people had problems with the fonts on this 4K hi-def screen. Lenovo support was useless but Geek Squad fixed me right up via remote connection. It might be something others know, but judging by the reviews most people including me just didn't really understand. There are lots of modifications to DISPLAY parameters but what most people should do if they are using this screen for apps like Windows Live is to change the screen resolution to 1920x1080 and change the scaling to 125%. Now everything is beautiful. If you do want to watch a movie in high def, then put it back to 3840x2160 and set scaling to 200%. What is confusing is that there is a choice for 2560x1600 but this is not the same ratio as the screen size so you get bars on each side which you probably don't want - I should have seen this but the Geek Squad enlightened me. Now as to the patch from Lenovo for font scaling, you probably don't need it nor would it do much I am sure. So kudos to the Geek Squad and thanks. It is an awesome machine and in fact even the lower resolution is more than any other PC I have ever had.

Thanks for Posting Info on Font Patch from Lenovo
November 6, 2015
JasoninNJ, thanks for posting your comment that installing the Lenovo patch to help font scaling toasted the machine. I won't try again to install it. As I mentioned I don't think it is needed. There will be more ultra HD computer screens and I'm guessing they will add automated switching to show videos in HD but do the rest of your PC work with the lower resolution which is excellent when viewing text.

Text Display Improvement
November 16, 2015
After playing with various settings I have some hopefully helpful feedback. First of all don't use the 3840x2160 unless you are streaming video, it makes text bad. Also don't use 2560x1600 since it is not a multiple of the 3840x2160 i.e. you'll get bars on both sides of the screen. Do use the 1920x1080 which is also hi-def and fits this screen dimensions properly. Now if you want text a little bigger then go to 'set custom scaling level' and use 110% or 115%; this makes nice readable text. Now here's a quirk I see lots of people having and not just on this PC or brand for Windows 10. You may see occasional video card errors and once in a while the machine may not IPL (just power off and try again it will come up). I think the problem is the video card doesn't get back fast enough to the CPU, and the video card crashes but does recover. Not a problem unless you are playing PC high powered games. So I don't recommend this machine for games, but video streaming and apps like Corel Photoshop are great. Now what you can do to minimize or eliminate the video card crashes (remember it happens on lots of machines with Windows 10, so there will be a fix soon I think). Anyway go to Control Panel and search for 'visual effects', then click on adjust the appearance and performance of Windows. Then select 'Custom' and click the box next to 'smooth edges of screen fonts'. If you optimize for 'best appearance' entirely or for let 'windows choose'... that's when the video card may not keep up I think. If you optimize for 'best'performance' the text looks horrible. Anyway the 'custom' settings work for me to give me nice text and no crashes. This is a stretch but I think the engineers knew there could be a problem, that's why they tried to put in the super high powered video cards, but not good enough for now, I do think this will get fixed by Windows 10 OS soon. This machine for it's price is tremendous and I think worth this minor glitch.

Good News to Add
December 8, 2015
I wanted to update my review to indicate that a frequent display driver error that said "...Intel Video adapter stopped working but recovered...", has stopped occurring after about 1 week ago when a pretty big Windows 10 update came out. It was never a killer for me since I don't play games but when I googled it, I did see that it was fairly common on many PC's - that's good since it appears Microsoft fixed it. Note there are two video adapters in this machine but the Nvidia one was not failing.

The M500s uses the Logitech Options Software. It is on the site, you may have just missed it for some reason. When you go to Logitech.com/options, click on Support, then Downloads. Now click on downloads in the top menu (I know this seems screwy) but when you hit downloads on this page you will then click on Logitech Options again, then click to download it. It is easy to make miss this. This link will take you directly to the page to download the Logitech Options for Windows 10: https://support.logi.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025297893
