Troubleshooting FAQs

How do I clean my Razer Keyboard?

The overall finish can be cleaned with wipes generally used for cleaning your computer monitor or sunglasses. Ensure that the surface is free of large dust particles or debris before wiping the surface with any product. Wiping debris into the surface can lead to minor scratches on the surface of the unit.

If you wish to clean under the key caps, Razer suggests holding the unit upside down and/or using compressed air from a can. We do not recommend removing the keycaps from your mechanical switches.

We suggest unplugging the device from your computer before cleaning.

Note:  Under no circumstances should you ever submerge the keyboard in any type of liquid. Submerging the keyboard in any liquid will void the warranty on your keyboard.

How do I remove the key from my Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro?

N-key rollover?

Can I use On-the-Fly Macro Recording without installing the drivers? Do I

have to keep the application running by keeping the system tray icon open?

On-the-Fly Macro Recording only works when the driver is installed and running in the background. The system tray icon should show up in the Windows Taskbar. If you start the recording without the drivers or the system tray application, the LED for the On-the-Fly Macro Recording on the Razer Cynosa Chroma Pro will blink three times and go off instead of remaining lit.

Install the driver and allow the system tray application to run in order to make use of this recorder.

What are profiles?

Profiles are templates that are used to define a keyboard’s settings for different games or applications. These customization options can be saved into profiles via the driver menu. This allows the user to fully customize the keys to suit each different game and application. Gamers could require different sets of macros, for example, for different games. Users can then conveniently switch between various saved profiles, saving them from the hassle of reprogramming the keys each time they launch a game.
