# KC Control: Keychron M6 profile switching over a recovered HID protocol

> KC Control implements Keychron M6 profile switching over a reconstructed HID command exchange. A Windows tray app watches the foreground program and selects an onboard mouse profile; its protocol reference documents report IDs, framing and commands derived from the Launcher web bundle and a live device capture.
