Dead wheel after update for Deathadder Elite

I saw a Razer update and after it was finished, my wheel no longer works. The odd thing is that it spins free...no resistance.

Wondering if it was coincidental that the mouse wheel just happened to die when the update occurred or if the software update caused both the wheel to stop working and to spin free like this.

Anyone else having this issue after today's update?

The mouse is only four months old so I wouldn't think it would die already.

Update...

It's just a bad wheel. Not sure why with the limited, fairly tame, use I gave it that it died so quickly, but that's what it is. I went and felt the wheels of other Razer Deathadder mice today and they all have tactile feedback as the wheel is scrolled. So, I ended up buying another mouse. Hopefully I can get a replacement for the one that went bad. Still waiting to hear back from support on that.
