I had profiles set up for my razer mouse and tararus for a few games but had to manually hit the set up key to change the profiles for each device. Tonight I learned you can link profiles to a game exe so they all load when you boot up the game...GREAT!!! Did it for Helldivers 2..BOOM...works.Tried setting it up for Call of Duty HQ to play Black Ops 6 and seems it only links to the game launcher...so when the game launches, it switches profiles like it should but once the game itself boots, i lose the link and profile/color goes to default profile.Tried manually linking the COD.EXE file in the XboxGames folder but ends up telling me “You don’t have permission to open this file”….very dissappointing. Works fine if link it to cod.exe from the Blizzard launcher. So obviously Xbox has a permission set on it….anyway around this?

Like usual...i found a solution after I posted asking for help lol. If anyone else is having this problem, I used UWPHook to add the game to my Steam library. Will show up in the list of games under the LINKED GAMES tab in Synapse...set your devices/profiles and bewm...good to go….launch from Steam.No issues launching from XGP either but of course the profile/colors wont work launching from there...have to launch from Steam.

Any way around Xbox PC Game Pass blocking cod.exe game linking to Synapse?
