How to flash the firmware and factory reset the Keychron M3 mouse

Note:
(1) If everything is working with your mouse, please don’t flash the firmware. There is a chance it can damage your mouse.
(2) This guide is for Keychron M3 users only. Please flash the firmware on your Windows PC. (We are working on making it accessible for Mac systems.)
(3) If you have multiple Keychron mice, please flash each one by one. Do not plug all the mice into the computer at the same time.

The firmware update includes two parts:
(1) Flash the firmware for the Type-A/Type-C 2.4 GHz Receiver;
(2) Flash the firmware for the M3 Mouse.

Please follow the instructions to flash the Receiver's firmware first.

Flash the firmware for the Type-A/Type-C 2.4 GHz Receiver

Step 1: Download and open the update tool (Keychron Firmware Updater).

Step 2: Plug the Receiver (Type-A or Type-C) into your Windows PC.

Then click on the 'Get Version' button to check your current receiver firmware version.

Step 3: Please download the correct firmware for your receiver.

Click on the 'Browse' button, select the firmware you have just downloaded, and then click on the 'Update' button to start flashing the firmware.
