Cortex Interfering with Games & Will Not Exit

Razer Cortex, a required install for the Tartarus V2 to work, has recently begun to break games by killing services they call. This has caused crashes to desktop, freezes, and forced restarts. My keypad is now a paperweight for all the good it does me. My Tartarus is out of warranty, but Razer continues to "update" its required software to the point that my device is now non-functional. Does Razer believe that since my device is out of warranty they can break its functionality without any consequence?

Yes, I would like assistance with the fact that your mandatory Cortex software does not comply with instructions, terminates important processes, and does not function. Let's leave the total non-functionality of your Synapse software out of this for now. As a result, the $80 keypad I bought from your company is now a paperweight. Is there a Windows FOSS-based alternative to your mandatory broken software?
