Synapse 3 not loading profiles automatically plus .exe location not changeable

G'day everyone. I seem to have found a problem with automatic loading profiles on certain games. The game in this case is Empyrion: Galactic Survival though there are a couple of other games that show the same behaviour. I believe I know partly whats going on but not all of it, so I thought I would ask on here to see if anyone has a workaround for the issue, or at the very least, make Razer Staff aware the problem.



Now I have a few profiles set up for different games (For example; Ring of Elysium or RoE) and generally the work well with the Razer hardware (A Ornata Chroma keyboard and a Naga Trinity mouse) to the point that if I load up RoE, the keyboard and mouse will load up their profiles for that game as well as the Studio Lighting profile while the game is running.

However, this is not the case with Empyrion and a few other select games. If I load up Empyrion, the profiles will not load for it (The last profile used, which is usually my Default Windows profile stays loaded).

I have looked into the issue a little and it seems that Synapse 3 is taking Empyrions Launcher exe as the game exe which is not

I have looked into the issue a little and it seems that Synapse 3 is taking Empyrions Launcher exe as the game exe which is not the actual games exe. It only launches the Easy Anti-cheat and the games main exe (Empyrionclient exe).

Normally this wouldn't be a problem as I can go into the Edit Game dialogue and set the games exe's location to the correct folder and exe. However I found that when the Save button is clicked to save the changes, it doesn't actually save them. If the Edit Game dialogue is reopened it is again pointing to the Empyrion Launcher exe.



So my question is; Does anyone know a workaround for this? If I game point the profile to the right exe I believe the problem of the profile not loading when the game is launched would be solved. Cheers in advance
