Question How do i make my mouse presets act like they used to with Logitech G Hub, but with a new non-Logitech mouse ?

Hi, my os -WINDOWS 10.

I recently bought Hyperx Pulsefire Core gaming mouse. Before that I was using a Logitech g302 wired mouse. With logitech G hub software , whenever i used to minimize games and do any general windows stuff like browsing, using other apps etc my mouse button preset would automatically change to default but whenever i swap to the game window the mouse buttons preset would automatically swap back to specific to that game and it worked even when i would run multiple games concurrently and whenever i bring up a game window(when other games running in background) my mouse button preset would change into for that specific game.

But currently with hyperx ngenuity software , mouse buttons presets don't work like Logitech G hub anymore. Now if i run a game my mouse buttons preset do change for that specific game, but when i minimize the game my mouse preset doesn't automatically change into deafault one anymore and it stays like that even when i'm browsing or doing any other windows stuff. wont automatically change back to default one.

This is very frustrating as i need to do multitasking concurrently with gaming. How do i make my mouse presets act like it used to with logitech G hub but with my new hyperx pulsefire core mouse?

G hub must have sdk for the games you were playing to be able to match the preset values for buttons.
sdk used to let games change settings on the hardware - https://www.spiceworks.com/tech/devops/articles/what-is-sdk/

meanwhile,

There are no plans for SDK, it's the only pc peripherals company that doesn't have an SDK, if it had an SDK it would be awesome but we can't have everything

Perhaps you should have looked into that before buying a new mouse

Now if i run a game my mouse buttons preset do change for that specific game, but when i minimize the game my mouse preset doesn't automatically change into deafault one anymore and it stays like that even when i'm browsing or doing any other windows stuff. Even if i completely quit the game still my mouse preset would stay as it was for that specific game and wont automatically change back to default one.

that sounds like a bug. You would think it could at least swap back to default theme after you end a game.

is it possible to control my current hyperx mouse using a third party software and make it act like my logitech mouse?

its funny that my search didn't include name of your mouse and yet all the results do.

Only one I can find is https://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/xmousebuttoncontrol.htm but it may not do what you want. There aren't many 3rd party mouse controllers, most mice either use the standard Windows drivers or have their own tools.

Off top of my head, mice with sdk:
Razer
Steelseries
Logitech (obvious)
Corsair
Asus

I think most brands do have them...
there are likely more, I would search brand name before buying. Sux when you don't know what it is you need though

If that feature is important to you, might need another mouse.

My last 2 mice were Steelseries, they make good hardware, tend to last forever. I only swapped to logitech for a change last month. Hadn't used a logitech mouse in about 20 years. Or so... hard to be exact.
