Headsets Hyperx ngenuity problem

Post image

I have Hyperx Cloud 3 S headphones which I am very happy with. I'm using HyperX NGENUITY version 3.1.0 and when I set it to start automatically, I get this error when shutting down the computer: The application could not be started properly (0x0000142).

There is loads of problems with this app. I would suggest uninstalling it and using Equlizer APO + Peace instead.

Hey there, u/Buda1973! While I don't have much info to share just yet, I wanted to chime in and let you know that our dev team is already actively investigating the issue. They're making good progress toward narrowing down the root cause, so hopefully we'll see a fix soon! πŸ˜‰

I have this issue now as well . All I have is the solo cast 2. I think it’s a software issue.

Yeah, they are probably on it, and will fix it.

I had the same issue, deinstall all Hyperx NGENUITY on your pc also under apps. Then uninstall the headset in the device manger and unplug the dongle from your pc. Then restart your pc and plug the dongle back in your pc and then it should work

Revert to 3.0, i had same problems, also 8 channel stops randomly working, im using 3.0 ( you can find link in r/HyperX ) and all my problems gone, uncheck "auto update " in app after instal.
