so i recently got a new Logitech G502 and i downloaded LGS online it worked fine i changed some settings then it randomly wouldn't open anymore and my mouse macros stopped working.
I have tried a reinstall for it and in task manager Lcore.exe is running.
 
Solution
"I have tried a reinstall for it and in task manager Lcore.exe is running."

Open Task Manager, click on Lcore.exe to highlight it, then click "End process".
Wait a few seconds then try uninstalling the LGS software again.

Then download & re-install it.

Hi I recently had a similar issue - after a system restart (unlrelated to logitech peripherala) LGS wouldn't open - No matter what I tried - uninstalled and re-installed various versions of LGS and still it wouldn't open - lcore.exe was never in processes list etc.
UNTIL, I tried version 8.53.154, during the installation it asked me to disconnect my G930 head phones, once that install had finished I kept my g930 headphones unplugged and installed version 8.81.15 and VOILA - it installed and is now open, plugged in the g930 and they were detected and LGS is still working.

All other versions except 8.53.154 never prompt to disconnnect any peripherals, I would try unplug any you have except maybe mouse as you need this to carry out install or keyboard etc.

I have been working at this issue for hours trying every possible solution mentioned on the Internet. Nothing seems to be working. I have a g910 a g502 and a g930. The Logitech gaming software was working just fine until tonight. I did install a new graphics card 970 ftw and updated the drivers. I believe that triggered the issue originally. But now no matter what I do of what version of the Logitech gaming software I install it simply will not open. I have tried uninstalling the nvidia drivers, installing countless versions of C++ and there is nothing. Lcore will not launch at all.

Machine specs are
Mobo: MSI z170 titanium edition
Processor: Intel i7 6700K

RAM: 16gb Gskill rip jaws DDR4 2400

Card: 970 FTW EVGA

WINDOWS 10 Home

I'm having this exact problem after updating today, but your fix didn't work for me. It's rather frustrating.
