Intel® Driver & Support Assistant - Sorry, something went wrong while trying to scan.

Andushii — Fri, 19 Dec 2025 18:10:45 GMT

Hi everyone,

I’m getting the “Sorry, something went wrong while trying to scan” error in Intel Driver & Support Assistant. I already removed it using the DSA uninstaller tool and reinstalled the latest version, but the scan still fails. Any ideas on what else to try?

I hope you are doing well and thanks for getting back! Please try the following recommendation:

Go to Browser Settings (Chrome)

Navigate to Site Settings
Scroll down to Permissions
Select Additional Permissions
Scroll to the last option, Local Network Access
Add intel.com under Customized Behaviors
Once the domain is added under “Customized Behaviors,” click on the three dots next to it and select “Allow.”
