When the Logitech G Pro Wireless is not working, it generally has to do with connectivity issues. For instance, the USB port to which the receiver has been connected could be malfunctioning or the mouse is simply kept too far from the receiver.
A recent firmware update or issues with outdated or corrupt drivers can also disrupt its functionality. Additionally, the Windows Fast Startup feature can sometimes cause problems with external devices.
Let’s see how you can fix it
What do I do if Logitech G Pro Wireless is not working?
Start by disconnecting and re-connecting the receiver and see if it helps. You can also try using a different USB receiver and make sure the surface underneath the mouse isn’t causing issues with its functionality.
If none of these work, keep reading:
1. Update the mouse driver
Alternatively, you can use a reliable third-party app. We recommendPC Helpsoft Driver Updatera dedicated tool that will automatically scan for the latest version, and install it for the drivers on your computer, thus keeping them all up-to-date and eliminating such errors.

In some cases, the G Pro Wireless not working issue started after a firmware update. If that’s the case, the device manufacturer would have released a patch for it in the subsequent updates. So,download the Logitech G HUP appand update the firmware through it.
Though firmware updates are critical, you should not install every one of them since these may introduce instability. It’s recommended that you only download firmware updates if there’s an issue with that particular device and that too from the official manufacturer.
3. Run Logitech Unifying Software

5. Disable Fast Startup
Fast startup is a feature that helps quickly boot Windows by keeping certain files active. But, this often leads to issues with the connected devices if their respective drivers don’t receive the command that the system has been turned on.
So, you can try disabling fast startup and check if it fixes the Logitech G Pro Wireless not working issue. In case this doesn’t work, re-enable fast startup and head to the last method.
6. Perform a system restore
If none of the methods listed here have worked, you can tryperforming a system restore. It’s highly effective against most underlying causes, whether it has to do with misconfigured settings, or conflicting apps, among other issues.
When you perform a system restore, the computer is taken back into time to a state when the error didn’t exist. Here, just make sure to choose a restore point created before you first encountered the issue. Otherwise, the whole exercise would prove futile.
These are all the ways you can fix issues with Logitech G Pro Wireless not working on the computer. And once you have it up and running, make sure to not commit the same mistake again that caused the error this time.
