Thank you for the update, please share more information with us:

  • Did you get the same issue with Windows 21H1?
  • When did this start?
  • Does this happen with HP drivers too?
  • Do you use the official Intel® GCC version or the BETA version?

* No, the issue is persistent when ever I enable virtual machine platform 

* I learned about virtual machine platform this year and i aslo know this feature is supported by my machine.

* I tried my HP drivers also the driver suggested by intel for my processor.

* Gcc version or beta  i did not understood but i use stable version of graphic driver not beta.

Hello @level7crew


The Intel®️ Graphics Control Panel (Intel®️ GCP) application has been discontinued from the Microsoft* Store as of March 16, 2021. Because of this, the support is limited for cases like yours. Is there a specific function that you need from this software?

An alternative, since the issue was not present in the previous Windows build, is that you can try to rollback Windows version or verify the compatibility of the tool with the latest Windows build, in both cases the best is to contact Microsoft.

Microsoft asked to contact intel. Anyway Thanks David. I think my processor is very old which is leading to compatibility issues. I will buy a new machine.
