Bricked my Corsair Scimitar

So I have just recently got an upgrade to my mouse and keyboard to the Corsair Scimitar and K95 RGB. But lucky me I decided to updated the firmware to the mouse in their own software and cause a malfunction error, not allowing me to edit the mouse DPI, colour, numpad. Their utility software was already causing problems where it would just freeze up causing any DPI switching, and G/macro key to become null. so how do I unfuck myself, just spent nearly 300 for this to get problems that shouldn't exist.

How did you update the firmware?

In the settings tab in their Corsair Utility Engine.

Some folks on Reddit fixed the problem by installing the new version of CUE

Just found a BOIS to revert to and got it working again, not sure about the software freezing up still i'll have to get back to that because it does it a random times. I have the latest version of CUE from their website, 2.8.70
