I'm not sure if it's a bug or a feature, but I noticed that IDSA has found a new update (4577) while arc control didn't (allow beta updates was on, 4576 installed). When I disabled the beta updates, it immediately found the newer driver. If it's a bug, then this is just a report, if it's intended for beta channel to ONLY have beta drivers available, then I have suggestion to change it.

Unfortunately, I already have the latest update, so I can't record it, I can only tell you the steps.
- Some time ago I enabled beta updates, then I updated to 4576 from 4575 when it was found
- Even though I often check manually for new drivers, none were found
- IDSA reported a new driver so I went to check in the arc control, but it found nothing
- After disabling the beta updates and searching again, the 4577 driver was found and installed

Okay, so now both arc control and IDSA stopped reacting to any updates, they just think that pc has the newest drivers no matter if i search for beta or normal ones, the update system is completely broken and the only way to get new drivers is to download them from site

Hello Remlin379,
We appreciate your patience in waiting for a response. We would like to inform you that there have been multiple driver updates which include some improvements for the Arc Control. We want to recommend you test with driver version 31.0.101.4824 and check if the Arc Control is capable of reporting the new driver 31.0.101.4826.
You can also install the driver 31.0.101.4826, installing the latest Arc Control version 1.73.5335; revert to a previous driver using a custom installation, to uncheck the Arc Control installation package, and then test once more.
Test with the Intel DSA to see if the tool can properly notify you of these driver updates.
Best regards,
Jean O.

Hello Remlin379,
We are checking in on your thread as we have not heard from you in some days, so we wanted to check if you have been able to test if, after updating the Arc Control software, it notifies you of the latest driver updates. Let us know your progress on it.
Best regards,

I won't be rolling back my drivers to test out the updates because you made the process as annoying as it could be, but rather than a problam for me, it was an information to you to fix your distribution channel. You can close this thread, it's not like the updates can get any more annoying.

It's a terrible app that failed at the basic function of contacting the update servers. An impressive fail. I was relying on "Intel Driver & Support Assistant" to keep my aware of updated drivers for my A770.

Big mistake. IDSA is plagued with errors and cannot be trusted. You would do better just to check the download page every couple of days yourself.

I just checked, IDSA detected a new driver and there's one on the website, and yet, Arc control detects nothing. No matter if I check the WHQL only or not, it simply thinks it has the newest driver. From what I remember, last time Arc control received the update a day later, but I think it's a bit weird for a primary control application to be the last one to receive the driver update

I've found this happened to me if a driver was installed over the top of another driver without using ddu.
Try ddu in safe mode.
Then install the newest driver via website. After that it should be able to search for the latest driver

The damage is done. Rolling back Windows updates and DDU in safe mode with older Intel Arc drivers did not restore my card to fully functional.
