I don't get it. How can not installing an update (AKA "not making changes") make something stop working?

If a firmware update is independent of a software update, the problem may occur. Generally between the time that the firmware is updated automatically and the time that the software is manually updated. In the case of Logitech, the firmware controls the actual devices and the software (Logitech Options) is the windows application that allows its users to communicate with the devices. So, if the two (software and firmware) get out of sync, difficulties can arise.
What is worse in this case is that the Win 7 user is unaware of the firmware update and does not know of the need to update the application software. Logitech should have been aware of the still-large number of Win 7 installations. Further, they should have been aware that Windows Updates is no longer applicable to Win 7. Their firmware design should have included a notification that a software update was required.

Ah, gotcha.
It's yet another windows update problem.
Why am I surprised?

I have been using Logitech keyboards and mice for at least 20 years, but never ever experienced any automatic firmware update. Maybe I never checked off that I wanted any such service, or maybe none of all the Logitech pieces that I have owned over the years have had any firmware update.
Or possibly that there has been a lot, but they have been so quiet that I never knew of them.

For the last years, Microsoft supported Win 7. I think the problem with failing to save settings was Logitech self-inflicted. I don't know how they did it. I just know what I said in the original post.

Must be nice, a planet whose magnetic field you can actually see.
I wonder whether it's water that rusts there, though.

I only know about this from watching "Forged In Fire" - the loss of attraction to a magnet in steel can be used to detect when it has reached the quenching point.

Given "its dayside temperatures exceeding 2400C", I don't think water has much of a chance of even existing there.

If you believe anything at all that astronomers tell you, I'd like to have a chat with you about bridges.

Astronomers, not astrologers.

Would it be acceptable to nominate someone else than yourself?

Provided the nomination form is accompanied by enough bitcoin, no problem!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Using highly sophisticated analysis tools (aka the network tab of my browsers dev tools) I can assure that the FAQ is correct in stating that it's not phoning anything home as it runs.

When someone becomes interested in an old educational show for kids would that be a Blue Petabyte?
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

It's all a mistake, he probably meant Pétomane[^]

I was thinking more along the lines of Peta Wilson.
