Create and scan for profiles with Logitech Gaming Software

Logitech Gaming Software (LGS) includes support for approximately six hundred games as of release 8.91. When you run the software for the first time, it should scan and automatically set up game profiles for you. If you install more games later, you can rescan for supported games and have profiles imported for them. You use profiles to customize pointer, lighting, or G-key/function key command assignments for every individual game and application. If you prefer, you can also just use one profile for all your games and applications.

There are two ways to set up profiles for your games or applications:

• Scan for new games
• Create new profiles

Scan For New Games

Logitech Gaming Software’s game profiles are created using registry entries from either Steam, uPlay, Battle.net, or Origin. Certain game profiles are associated with multiple publishers’ registry entries, but the majority are linked to the Steam registry entry, excluding the games that are available exclusively on Battle.net or Origin. See a complete list of games here (/article/List-of-Logitech-Gaming-Softwaredefault- starting-profiles).

1. Open Logitech Gaming Software (LGS).
2. Navigate to the Home window for your mouse, keyboard, or headset.
3. Select Customize buttons, Customize Function keys, or Customize G-keys depending on the device.
4. In the Profiles pane, click Scan For New Games.
5. Once the profiler has completed its scan, click OK to add the profiles to your list.

NOTE: A profile for the selected game should appear in the Profiles pane.

If you own a game that is not automatically detected by the Scan for New Games feature, you can make a few minor adjustments to set up the profile. For more information, please see Scan For New Games does not detect game in Logitech Gaming Software (/article/Scan-For-New-Games-does-notdetect-game-in-Logitech-Gaming-Software).

Create new profiles

If the Scan For New Games list does not contain the game you want, LGS offers the ability to create your own profile. Here’s how:

TIP: LGS can store profiles for any program executable (.exe) file. Use this to customize command assignments for productivity programs.

1. Open Logitech Gaming Software (LGS).
2. Navigate to the Home window for your mouse, keyboard, or headset.
3. Select Customize buttons, Customize Function keys, or Customize G-keys depending on the device.
4. In the Profile pane, click Create new profile (“+”). The New Profile window appears.
5. Type distinct names for your profile in the Name and Description.
6. Click “+” and use the Windows Explorer window that appears to navigate to and open your executable (.exe) file. NOTE: You can assign multiple executable files to the same LGS profile.
7. Select the checkbox to Lock profile while the game is running to prevent other profiles from becoming active while your game or application is running.
8. If you prefer to use another profile’s lighting, command assignment, or pointer settings as a starting point, select the checkbox to Copy from an existing profile. Use the drop-down menu to select a profile to copy settings from.
9. Click OK to save changes and add the new profile. NOTE: A new profile for the game or application should appear in the Profiles pane.
