    Hi, posted this on the logitech forums already but no response...

    Working on windows 8.1, but reinstalled LGS and it seemed to be working fine with everything.

    Never used hotkeys for sc2 (on a mouse) so no idea if it would've worked before 8.1 but I don't think that's the problem.

    Anyway, problem is, hotkeys reassigned to the mouse side buttons (1, 2, 3 , 4 ,5 etc) for controlling groups of units, do not work. They work for other programs, the SC2 profile I made is working (all the other reassigned buttons work, volume, mute, etc). And the function "5" is working when I reassign it for typing for example.

    What am I doing wrong?

    Windows 8.1 and Logitech's software are mutually exclusive. You can't use both at the same time. Had the same problems with my G602 and 8.1. On top of other problems, I simply reverted back to Windows 8. In OS X Mavericks, my mouse isn't detected by Logitech's software at all. I have to use a 3rd-party driver to get full functionality.

    Really? I'm using it right now and all the functions work for every program except reassigning keyboard keys to the mouse ONLY in sc2...

    EDIT: realized the problem but still have no fix. starcraftII.exe is the program I told LGS to detect, but it actually doesn't work. The hotkeys seemed to be working cause it was using default. Anyone know the file so I can hotkeys just for sc2?
