Hallo,

my Synapse 3 does not find ANY of my games.
I even can not add any games manually!



Is there any way to convince the Software to do it?

Try first to repair it via windows add/remove panel if this dont help try to remove all razer softwere from pc then delete appdata and programfiles "razer" folder and reboot pc next when windows boot download new installer and trry one more time.
Thank you for your awnser, but that did NOT work. Still no list of games.
it resolved it by itself....

I installed APEX on my system and suddenly nearly all my games appeared in Chroma and Synapse 3.
Dont ask me way?!?

Sometimes just best to re-install the Windows OS.
Which fixed my issue

Reinstalling all my apps and OS for a bugged software ? No sir..I'll better put al this Razer gear in "dumpster mode" and buy something much,much reliable...

Options and opinions are always valid. I'll stick with RAZER

:smile_: I've a ticket to their support team regarding this issue.. If I don't get a soluțion in a reasonable period of time, I'll start returning all the Razer stuff back to merchands... Don't like to waste my time... :smile_::smile_::smile_:
I have the very same problem now.
I already tried re-installing the Synapse software and before that I manually cleared all previoous filed including the registry.
Nothing seems to help.

Still no answer for me but anyway, welcome to the club... Maybe these days we'll have a solution, but I doubt this.. This issue was raised from december 2018...so...
It only oocured for me yesterday.
Before that it working as it shoud.
I'm suspecting that it has something to do with the latest Window 10 update to build 1903.

Can you try to download windows creation tool from microsoft website and make a update ? This will not delete or erase any data/apps installed just reinstall system files.

If reinstall of 1903 dont help you can also try to go back to 1809 and see if on previous build you have the same issue

Hi.
As I said, I've had the Synapse3 installed on 1809, worked a couple of days then stopped detecting games. Today I'd updated to 1903, still the same games detection issue...

Costin
PS : reinstalling Synapse3 didn't solve the problem...

Hi... All games I have are on Steam... At a certain moment Synapse3 detected all of them besides Pubg then stopped detecting ANY of them.. As I said my Windows 10 is up to date, but Synapse3 still don't detects my games...

Ok can you tell me if steam or game reinstall also dont fix it. When the issue start you remember what update or softwere was installed ? any info can help to find the couse of the issue.

Well I'd followed your advice and uninstalled Steam then reinstalled it..Same behavior, but an improvement :confused_:..Now the brilliant Synapse 3 sees the "Microsoft solitaire collection" as the only game on this pc..o_O.. Really, Razer ? I'm getting bored about this useless software...Why Razer sales devices based only on this bugged software ? This issue was reported since december last year...I think I'll shutdown the "Razer chapter" of my life and buy something else more reliable...Dumpster mode activated...Bye
I just contacted chat live support with that issue.
They wanted to have some log files from me which IU provided.
Waiting for a response right now.

Sorry for the delay in my answer, but I'm from Europe and I'd seen your message this morning....
Funny story ...
There was an Nvidia graphics driver update avaiable today.
Since I installed that some of my games did show up in the profiles and I was able to link those.
However not all of my game and manually adding them still doesn't work.

Hi..Try delete this folder..C:\\ProgramData\\Razer\\GameManager\\ServiceSettings.xml then restart pc....It worked for me and now my games appears in the "linked games" window so I can link them to any profile...
