load the menu.
#### Install Location
File explorer: `%localappdata%\arctis-monitor` double click `arctis-monitor`.
#### Force
To force load a refresh of headphones press the ⇧ Shift key at the same time you click, and then right click to
see any changes.
### macOS
To get the debug menu you have to press the ⌥ Option key at the same time you click the menu.
#### Force
To force load a refresh of headphones press the ⇧ Shift key.
## Development
### Dependency
The logic to find the headphones is abstracted to this repo / npm package [arctis-usb-finder](https://github.com/richrace/arctis-usb-finder).
You can checkout that package if you want to edit it, and change the npm dependency to the directory you've cloned it
to e.g. `"arctis-usb-finder": "file:../arctis-usb-finder"`. If you make a change, as it's written in TypeScript you must
build it first and restart this application to refresh the code.
### This electron app
Clone this repo
Run
```
npm install
```
and then
```
npm start
```
As it's written in TypeScript you will need to kill and restart start after each change.
