There are dozens of peripheral software programs these days, and for good reason. As peripheral customization reaches new heights, standard Windows mouse options are no match.
Mouse manufacturers have therefore developed a series of proprietary solutions to personalize their products. Logitech G-Hub is the way to go if you want to get the most out of your Logitech devices.

Logitech G Hubs is relatively similar to Logitech Gaming Software in that it is a customization tool and standalone portal for Logitech peripherals. However, G Hub is a ground-up overhaul designed to provide more versatile profile creation options.
Features and Benefits of Using Logitech G Hub Software
Overall, G Hub is a much sleeker and more intuitive version of LGS, with many of the same features (profile creation, macros/commands/keys, RGB lighting control and sync, DPI sensitivity, automatic game detection , etc. Additionally, it is the only program that works with the 2019 line of Logitech devices.
New features include the ability to upload and share custom gaming profiles with the Logitech community, integration into OBS, third-party streaming apps and Discord (i.e. assigning buttons with actions tangible in the software), and the ability to create and save multiple identical game profiles and change them seamlessly.

Troubleshooting – Logitech G Hub
Logitech G-Hub Center won't open, what should I do?
First, try restarting your PC and relaunching G Hub. If that doesn't work, then you will need to uninstall and reinstall G Hub. Make sure to download the latest version if you haven't already.
If you also have LGS installed, then uninstall both programs and reinstall G Hub first. If possible, avoid reinstalling LGS as both programs use a similar API which may conflict and cause a bug in G Hub when opened.

Here are some possible fixes:
- Check that the device is compatible with G Hub, as only a few older and pre-2019 devices are.
- Check that the USB cable is plugged in correctly.
- Download and install the latest version of G Hub from the Logitech website.
