Hi, is there an already compiled exe for download somewhere? I tried to compile it here on Win 7 x64 (with placed the "logi_nethidppio.dll" in the "embeddeddlls" folder) and I get:

Program.cs(1,32): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'components' does not exist in the namespace 'LogitechBatteryIndicator' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Program.cs(2,32): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'controller' does not exist in the namespace 'LogitechBatteryIndicator' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

I dont want to distribute an exe with this dll for legal reasons but i can try and help troubleshoot. Did you make the folder and put the dll in the right spot? the embeddeddlls folder should be in the root folder of this repository and logi_nethidppio.dll should be inside that folder.

Actually the errors you posted dont seem related to the dll. If i remove the dll i get much different errors. The errors you posted seem to be general dotnet errors. Are you sure you have dotnet 8.0 or higher installed?

I also noticed the dll for the onboard memory manager version 2.6.1749 changed and its not possible to download older versions so i updated the code. It should work with a dll from version 2.6.1749 but i wasn't able to verify this as i dont use logitech anymore

Thanks a lot for the help! Yes, it's in the same folder as "components" and "controllers".

I'm on Win 7 and .NET 8 is not compatible with it; that's probably the reason for the errors.

Hmm in that case you can maybe try replacing the dotnet 8 specific code so it works for you. But I can't really help you sorry :/

I have no idea which parts of the code I need to replace, but I'll see if I can compile it in a Windows 11 VM or something.
Thank you very much.

if you compile it with dotnet 8 it also needs dotnet 8 runtime i think. So it wouldnt work on w7 if you can't get dotnet 8
