BrianB Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Well, I got around to uninstalling Synergy 1.8 and installing Synergy 2.0. Windows 10 desktop PC it seemed to work fine - I'm assuming the green window is an indicator that things are working. My Windows 7 laptop sitting next to it, connected to the same router, same IP I could not get it to light up. I ran services.msc as admin and tried restarting it several times, uninstalled/reinstalled, rebooted etc. and no go for the Windows 7 laptop. Will have to reinstall the old for now since I need it for tomorrow and will try again some other time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
