I just got one of these, and the Windows key is not functional - even after trying a couple of other switches in the socket. There's no damage to the PCB that I can see. The other issue is the LED for that key is permanently on, and stuck at a single (odd) color. I tried updating the firmware, but there isn't anything new for this unit. The OEM software works fine, but does not have any effect on the malfunctioning LED.
Any suggestions?
Just bought this keyboard and immediately the spacebar doesn't work. I do not have the drivers installed as windows defender flags it, could this be the issue?
Nice silicone base and very easy hotswap and the south facing leds are just the cherry on top this keyboard is amazing would recommend to newer keyboard enthusiasts.
Watch out for this company... They don't seem to care that the software has a trojan in it. Windows won't even let me install the software because of it, and rightfully so. It's a shame because the keyboard itself is actually really nice for the price. I won't install the shady software until they come up with a solution and I would advise you not to as well. The issue from Windows defender is: Trojan:Win32/Tnega!ml, so I would be careful not to use the software from the site. I've been talking with flesports and they claim that they all "use the driver and that it's safe" but I don't feel reassured by that fact.
Hopefully they come up with a solution...
They recently updated the software and resolved the issue. It may have been a false positive but I didn't want to risk keylogging. Glad they listened to the complaints because it's a fantastic board for the price.
infodriveWindows not allowing installations and flagging is not always "virus" unless it says, i heard somewhere that they have to pay windows for it to get licensed and allowed
vichokupoxxFor now, I wouldn't install it since windows claims there's a trojan inside. If you're willing to risk the biscuit, you can get it here: http://www.flesports.com/down/
"estimated ship date December 17th"
Today being October 4th, you can buy for the same cost at AliExpress and have it here by November 6th, over a month before it even leaves Drop's warehouse.
They even have it in more colors. (Red and blue)
Every day I find a new way to wonder how drop is still in business.
