I was playing around with the Unifying utility on my Mac after I found a orphaned Unifying receiver that I figured I should pair with an orphaned Unifying-compatible mouse (a Logitech M310). They didn't work together so I knew they weren't an original pair. I've bought so many of these over the years but never really played around with the pairing/unpairing software. I did have MacOS 10.15 Catalina, and the said it was compatible with up to 10.13, but I downloaded it anyways and it worked anyways and paired these. The Unifying utility noted that it was previously paired with an M325, which could have been one that I tossed a long time ago after a few too many drops.
But my kid normally uses an M325c that I got a couple of years ago. I wasn't sure if it was Unifying compatible as my kid managed to use it to the point where the label rubbed off. But the receiver that it came with wasn't Unifying (not sure why). I managed to pair it with one of the Unifying receivers just to see if it worked, but then I couldn't get it to work with the original receiver.
I saw some video that suggests using the Logitech Connection Utility, but that's apparently only available for Windows. Now I suppose I could use the one working PC in our house to do it - once my kid stops using it. If it doesn't work, I have one marginal mouse (doesn't work consistently) with a Unifying receiver that I could just pair with the M325c.
However, once one pairs a mouse with a Unifying receiver, is it supposed to stop working with the original receiver - non-Unifying or Unifying? It just seems kind of strange that it stopped working. Also - it seems that if a non-Unifying receiver is lost, the mouse/keyboard could probably be paired with a new one if there's one lying around.
I also have a Logitech mouse/keyboard that came paired to the same non-Unifying receiver. But they didn't work with the Unifying software, and I suppose that was a good thing because it would be a pain to pair it back to the original receiver.
