This tiny Go-based tray app prevents the Razer BlackShark V2 Pro wireless headset from disconnecting due to microphone inactivity.

This is a workaround as Razer hasn't been able to fix their Sh*t

It does this by launching ffmpeg in the background to continuously open the mic input — keeping it "alive" and preventing idle timeouts or power-saving disconnections.

Another workaround is to Disable Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power in device manager. (it didn't work for me) Link here

1. Install ffmpeg
2. Download the executable and run it.
3. (Optional Autostart) Shortcut RazerMicKeepAlive.exe to %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup folder

• Tray icon with clean Quit button
• Launches ffmpeg to keep mic active silently
• Fully self-contained Go app (no GUI window)
• Lighter than running OBS, Discord, etc..

• Go (1.20+)
• ffmpeg (add to PATH)

Run in terminal:

ffmpeg -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy

Look for your mic, e.g.:

"Microphone (Razer BlackShark V2 Pro 2.4)"

Copy that exact string.

git clone https://github.com/ndanilo8/razer-mic-keepalive.git
cd razer-mic-keepalive
go mod init razer-mic-keepalive
go get github.com/getlantern/systray

Then edit main.go with the string above:

micName := `Your Device Name Here`

go mod tidy
go build -ldflags="-H=windowsgui" -o RazerMicKeepAlive.exe main.go

-H=windowsgui ensures no terminal window pops up when you launch it.

Just double-click RazerMicKeepAlive.exe. It will:

• Start ffmpeg in background
• Show a system tray icon
• Keep your mic open and stable
• Prevent Random Razor Disconnects

To stop it: Right-click tray icon → Quit

• Press Win + R, type shell:startup
• Place a shortcut to RazerMicKeepAlive.exe there

MIT — do whatever you want.
