Intel Arc Control

Feedback:  (Hopefully not repeating someone elses post) 

• Why does it show in Task Manager; Startup as _80D36AFAC234634A8C1929.exe?
• Why does it NOT show on the Task bar or Task Tray?
  • Can the overlay be turned off so this can show as an application when not in a game?

I smell arrogance.   I do like the Performance tab, truthfully, finally!!!!.   

Just to keep complaining.  Why does intel.com restrict passwords to 15 characters?

Geez.

The file showed under Task Manager; Startup and used the icon for the Intel Arc Control app.   It was not there before installing the Intel Arc Control/Driver app.

Hello Peter 1231,  

I'm covering LuisGustav_A_Intel today. Thanks for your patience.
We have been unable to reproduce the issue but we have some steps to try to clear this situation.

• We are suspecting that when we install the latest driver 31.0.101.3491 on a system with Arc and iGFX so it must probably be a glitch with the installer or even Windows Installer.
• uninstall Arc Control (from Apps & Features) and the Gfx drivers from Device Manager and then do a clean installation of 31.0.101.3491. (link below)

Clean Installation of Intel® Graphics Drivers in Windows guide*
Don't miss step 4 . for Uninstall and Install the Graphics Driver steps and pay close attention and check the box for this step.

Please let us know if the issue persists. Feel free to share screenshots or videos about the situation. 

Best regards,
