Synapse shutting down when opened | Razer Insider
Skip to main content
Hi all,



I've just downloaded Synapse to my Win10 blade 15. I've noticed that whenever I open it, things appear to be OK, until I try to click into something. For instance, doing the following things cause it to shut down:





  • Clicking on "System"

  • Clicking on my Razer Blade from the main dashboard



I've tried uninstalling Synapse and re-installing but the issue still persists.



Any suggestions greatly appreciated as I can't adjust my fan speed etc at the moment.
Just to add some further info on things I have tried:



  • Uninstall/reinstall Synapse



  • Removing windows updates



  • Re-adding windows updates



  • I ran a diagnostic in Cortex which shows some errors with Synapse



  • Resetting everything in Synapse settings



Here are a few links I've referred to in the process:



From the diagnostic event log - I've just searched for "Synapse" and pasted any info on the errors:
