Keyboard and mouse won't change to other colors anymore? Can't remove Front plate to clean dust?

The problem started when I used a program called HID Hide to play a certain title that released with horrible controller support, the only way to play it on release was to hide the gaming keyboard and mouse so that it would detect my PS4 controller, it worked, I uninstalled HID Hide but before I did I made sure to unhide both devices then uninstalled HID Hide, now the colors stay blue and doesn't change to any other color, I can change the desktops color but not the keyboard and mouse they stay blue, so I uninstalled Predator Sense and reinstalled it, still didn't work, desktop changes all colors and the other two does not

I know how to take the front plate of this PC off but the releases aren't letting me push them back after I squeeze them together and I don't want to break the pins holding the front plate on what am I doing wrong could someone show me a video perhaps?

yeah, i use them combined also with device sync, but the arc program controls all the settings and colors heh, glad it worked for ya, get the owner's manual for your model 3000, i do think it there, it shows ya how to remove the front panel, and i always thought it was like mine, unless yours is an older 3000.

you are aware, the mouse and keyboard have their own program called predator arc, they are not in predator sense, and what pc are we talking about? i don't like to assume anything, but my newer 5000 series, has a single screw on the bottom, and after taking that out, the front panel comes right off for easy cleaning.

The Predator Arc works and did the job thank you for that however device sync used to allow me to change global colors simultaneously and it stopped but thanks for the Predator Arc suggestion I've never had to use it until now, my Pc is a P03-620 series I have to go inside the case and squeeze and push like several pins out to get the front plate to remove unfortunately, I have to also remove the LED's connected to it and anything else just to remove the front plate, I just don't want to break them, it will have my pc looking crazy LOL also the Bluetooth on this model is buggy idk if it's because I upgraded to Windows 11 or that the hardware is cheap for Bluetooth
