  1. Uninstall Intel Driver and Support Assistant via Control Panel (if it is still installed).
  2. Delete all old log files from C:\ProgramData\Intel\DSA.
  3. Restart the system.
  4. Go to Download Center and do a fresh install of IDSA. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/24345/Intel-Driver-Support-Assistant

Hello HHans8 Thank you for posting in the Intel Community. Have you tried to uninstall of Intel® driver and support assistance Intel DSA with the Intel® Driver & Support Assistant Uninstaller? Reference/download link https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28181/Intel-Driver-Support-Assistant-Uninstaller. Once you have uninstall Intel® DSA try to install the Intel® DSA lasted version (https://downloadcenter.intel.com/product/128824/Intel-Driver-Support-Assistant-Intel-DSA-). Hope this helps.
