To download Redragon mouse software, you need to visit the official Redragon website and locate the software package for your specific mouse model. This software unlocks full customization of DPI, button assignments, macros, and lighting effects, but it is only available for Windows and requires a wired or 2.4G connection to function.
Before you download redragon mouse software: what to know
The configuration software is generally Windows-only, so Mac users will not be able to install or run it. The software files are often in a compressed .rar format, meaning you will need a third-party tool like WinRAR to extract them. Additionally, the software is only accessible in wired mode or 2.4G mode for some mice, Bluetooth mode will not allow the software to detect your device.
Step 1: Go to the official Redragon download page
Open your browser and navigate to the official Redragon website. The correct pages are redragon.com/pages/software-download or redragonshop.com/pages/software. Avoid third-party sites to ensure you get the authentic, up-to-date software. Once there, look for the “Downloads” or “Support” section in the main menu.
Step 2: Find your mouse model in the downloads list
Software downloads are typically listed by product model (e.g., M711, M908). Locate your specific mouse in the list, check the label on the underside of your mouse or its original packaging if you are unsure. Click on the entry for your model to access its dedicated download page.
Step 3: Download and extract the .rar file
- Click the download button or link for your mouse model’s software. Save the file to a location you can easily find, such as your Downloads folder.
- Once the download completes, locate the
.rarfile. You will need a third-party software like WinRAR (or a similar program) to unzip the.rarfile. - Right-click the file and choose “Extract Here” or use WinRAR’s extraction tool to unpack the contents into a new folder.
Step 4: Run setup.exe to install
- Open the extracted folder and locate the
setup.exefile. - Double-click
setup.exeto launch the installation wizard. Follow the on-screen prompts, agree to any terms, choose a destination folder if desired, and wait for the process to complete.
Step 5: Launch the software and customize your mouse
- After installation, open the software from your desktop shortcut or programs list. Connect your mouse via USB cable or 2.4G wireless receiver (if applicable).
- The software interface lets you adjust DPI levels, program buttons, set up macros, and configure lighting. For example, the M908 Impact software supports 5 adjustable DPI levels (500/1000/2000/3000/6200 DPI) and 7 buttons plus 12 MMO programmable side buttons.
- Save your settings, most software has an “Apply” or “Save” button to write changes to the mouse’s onboard memory.
Troubleshooting: mouse not detected or software won't open
If the software reports “no mouse detected,” ensure the mouse is plugged into a known-working USB port, preferably directly on the computer. Check Windows Device Manager to confirm the system recognizes the mouse. Running the installer and the software as an administrator can help ensure it has the necessary permissions. Some detection issues might be resolved by resetting or updating the mouse’s firmware, which can be found within the downloaded software package or on the Redragon support site. If you encounter problems with the Redragon software download, you can contact support@redragonshop.com.
What about Mac?
The configuration software is Windows-only. Mac users get plug-and-play basic function and onboard memory settings still apply, meaning any DPI, button, or lighting configurations you saved to the mouse’s internal memory while on a Windows PC will work when you plug the mouse into a Mac. The M908 Impact software is compatible with Windows 2000/ME/XP/03/VISTA/7/8/10 systems for programmable use and Mac OS for normal use, but you cannot install or run the configuration tool on macOS itself.
