Logitech Control Center Connection Utility is a macOS helper used to reconnect certain older Logitech wireless mice and receivers.
What is Logitech Control Center Connection Utility?
Logitech Control Center Connection Utility is a macOS utility for pairing or reconnecting certain older Logitech wireless mice with their USB receivers. It is part of the Logitech Control Center software family for Mac, which Logitech used to provide customization and device support for compatible mice and keyboards. On Macs, users typically encounter this utility in Utilities when troubleshooting a lost wireless connection rather than as an everyday settings app. Its main job is to guide the reconnection process on screen so supported hardware can start working again. This tool is associated with legacy Logitech devices and older Logitech Control Center workflows, while newer supported devices are generally managed through Logi Options or Logi Options+ instead.
Key features
- Reconnect a compatible Logitech wireless mouse to its USB receiver
- Guide the pairing process with on-screen setup steps
- Help restore input functionality after a receiver or device loses connection

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This utility is legitimate Logitech software for older wireless-device setup and troubleshooting. It may need access to connected USB input hardware so it can pair a supported mouse and receiver, which is normal for its purpose. It is not generally something you need to run all the time, and removing it can take away reconnection tools for older Logitech devices that still depend on Logitech Control Center.
Recommendation: Keep it if you still use an older Logitech mouse or keyboard that depends on Logitech Control Center, especially if you may need to reconnect a receiver. If you no longer use compatible legacy Logitech hardware, you can remove it along with Logitech Control Center. For newer Logitech devices, use the current Logitech management software that supports your model.
