The GameGlass Hub contains an installer for a hardware level keyboard and mouse driver. This driver allows full compatibility for all games without the need to run GameGlass in administrator mode for certain titles with the same permission level or for titles that block keypress emulators such as Helldivers 2.
During installation of the Hub, a UAC prompt will pop up to allow installation of the GameGlass driver. This is not required for GameGlass to function as software emulation is the default fallback, but utilizing the driver is highly recommended for the aforementioned use-cases.
Once installed you can toggle the keyboard and/or mouse driver on or off from the Hub settings menu:
Keyboard driver: If certain/all keypresses aren't being received by a game try toggling this driver off to check if compatibility improves.
Mouse Driver: If you are using multiple monitors with the mouse move action you may want to disable the mouse driver from here as the hardware driver only supports your primary monitor.
How to block the GameGlass driver from being installed
In certain cases the GameGlass driver may cause conflicts with third-party services such as remote Shadow PCs where drivers interfere with usb HID forwarding for example. To prevent the GameGlass driver from being installed on the system in any way and to also prevent updates from triggering a new install attempt:
1. Open Windows Powershell or a command prompt of your choice.
2. Change the directory to where the GameGlass.exe is found. If it is in the downloads folder then you can use this command in Powershell for example:
cd $HOME\Downloads
3. Install GameGlass with /nodriver flag:
.\GameGlass.exe /nodriver
That's it! Installation should proceed normally without the driver install prompt now and in the future.
In case you want to use the driver at any point reinstall GameGlass using:
.\GameGlass.exe /enabledriver
