I hate the terrible workarounds that some people suggest to get it working. Like quit the installer, shut off services, delete some folder then try again... I’ve tried them don’t get me wrong, but why should I need to do that on a fresh install?

 

[Jay85]

Just to rub it in.. i've never had this issue.. its always worked flawlessly

 

[JohnG7]

I use ESET Smart Security (with Defender still doing periodic background scans) and I never see anything about allowing any processes during install.

I wonder if you went bareback (drop all security features/firewall (unplug Ethernet first as you can use the offline installer 32bit and 64bit choices) and installed and rebooted (plugging in cable) it would it work then.

What do you mean offline installer? Doesn’t the installer just download the latest files online?

 

[JohnG7]

Not 100% sure but the universal installer "lghub_installe.exe" is only 35MB so it downloads the full 32bit or 64bit driver for you (depending on your OS).

The offline installer does not seem supported now (read on their Twitter), claims it needs a connection to do update during install.

How about grab an older version that worked for you and hope it lets it install as older version then updates, not updates during install.

I cannot install this piece of crap software

Did a reformat recently and cannot get past the install logo animation. It just sits there spinning and spinning.

Anyone had this issue? I’m running a light speed G502 and G915 TKL which I’ve had working previously.

A fresh install of Windows 10 with ZERO updates, ALL windows updates, no drivers installed, ALL drivers installed, new installer, old installer... nothing works. I’m totally stumped.

All the advice I’ve seen says to reinstall but that’s not worked. As far as I remember from the last known working install was that it should prompt for a windows firewall acceptance but it doesn’t. Forcing it through the firewall hasn’t fixed anything so

had the similar issue. download latest microsoft visual c++. If it wont help try previous one

Like I’ve said... I’ve already tried that.

Ive gone back and tried ones I know work (literally the last update) and ones a few months older. Nothing.

I shall try installing visual C++

Advise you use these as full up to date packs (amazing what programs and games can randomly crash due to these not being up to date).

- AIO Repack for latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Runtimes, without the original setup bloat payload.

- Built upon VBCRedist_AIO_x86_x64.exe by @ricktendo64

- The process is handled by a windows command script, which runs hidden in the background by default.

- Before installation, the script will check and remove existing non-compliant Visual C++ Runtimes, including the original EXE or MSI setups, or older MSI packages versions.

- The uninstallation option/script will remove any detected VC++ runtimes (except UCRT).

- Windows XP support is partial, the pack will install and detect latest runtimes versions, but it will not check and remove non-compliant versions.

- You can extract the installer file with 7-zip or WinRar to a short path, and run Installer.cmd as administrator

I've just built a new systemm fresh install of Windows 10 and installed it just fine.

I'm on version 2020.8.5950

Hardware; G502 mouse, G512 keyboard, G933 headset

Update. Installing C++ didn’t work.

I looked at the suggestions on Reddit had success installing with the 2020.01 exe but as soon as I updated the software it would get stuck in the same loop

Normally you’d say “so don’t update” but it doesn’t even recognise my keyboard on that old revision; so I have to.

Really lost for words now. Literally nothing had changed from the last time it just won’t let me use the app.

 

[JohnG7]

Would it install in safe mode with networking?

Dont worry the problem he is having is 1 in 1000 and all his hardware/software config.

"Most" people don't have issues.

 

[JohnG7]

^^ You should go and join Sora on the Nvidia forums.

 

[pp111]

It is worse IMO.

Really? I am surprised, I never had any issues with it. Oh well.

Have you got any USB items plugged into the computer that you can remove ?

Also do you have a PCI-E sound card ? or any other PCI-E card apart from a GPU ?

@EVH You tried running the latest .net runtime? I have had a ton of issues recently with .net updates nuking apps in server environments (Sharepoint I am looking at you) wouldn't be surprised at all if it is .net related. This is of course assuming that the app targets .net using c++/cli.

Gotta be worth a try if you haven't already.

 

[JohnG7]

Just updated right now (triggered by a reboot as was not there earlier), so give it another go.
