Razer Synapse 3 not detecting my keyboard | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
FIXED by uninstalling Riot Vanguard!!



Hi I just got a Razer Blackwidow Tournament Edition Chroma V2 (yellow switch) keyboard and I tried to connect it to synapse 3 but the program does not detect my keyboard on my main PC(Windows 11) at all. (It was detected on my laptop with Windows 10)



I have tried a few ways to solve

1. restarted pc

2. reinstalled synapse 3

3. repaired synapse 3

4. tried a different USB port

5. uninstalled the keyboard from the drivers

6. check if this keyboard is compatible with synapse 3. (since it worked on my laptop ig it is compatible anyway)



Is there any other way you would recommend me to try it?



I am not sure if it is related but the visualizer works.

Same here with BlackWidow V3, DeathAdder V2





I am annoyed.
First just problems with Roccat, then just problems with Logitech and then I wanted to give Razer a chance and this is where the same shit starts.

I found a solution that might help you too. If you have Riot games on the computer, uninstall Valorant and especially Riot Vangaurd and after that things should be recognized. I also have Windows 11
