Wheel Light Option Gone Synapse4

Question

I was recently “upgraded” to Synapse 4 and now my lighting effects don’t work on my fans; specifically the wheel lighting option. It works fine on my Ornata keyboard (under Quick Effects) but it isn't even a selectable option anymore for my Razer Chroma ARGB Controller. Why was this removed? How do I get it back? It worked fine in Synapse 3. Why fix what isn’t broken. Tried to go back to Synapse 3 but you can't (great).  Tried to add the Chroma APP to do the Advanced light options and get wheel there but if you pick the Advanced light option the fans all go dark and nothing I pick there changes that. I can only use quick effects with the Razer controller. Really not happy about this. Everything I have is a Razer product and their own software update borked it all. Edit - if I pick an option from under Quick my fan lights work through the controller. Just wanted to add it works sometimes but only with those standard options and why is wheel not one for the Razer controller?

UPDATEI was able to find a way to revert back to Synapse 3 and everything works properly again. If you wish to go back to S3 then…https://www.razer.com/synapse-3-legacyDownload Synapse 3 (it is Version 3.10.730.71519)Install Synapse 3Login (when I did everything Synapse 4 broke worked properly again)Right Click System Tray Synapse Icon > Select SettingsSelect Software UpdatesTurn Automatically Update Razer Software OFF so it doesn't auto-update and load Synapse 4 on you again.Hopefully that solves it and it doesn't circumvent me turning updates off. Everything I want is handled by Synapse 3 properly. No need or desire for Synapse 4 especially seeing as it is borked beyond belief and they took features I used and like away.
