Arc control bug

I update the driver to 4575 today,but after I restarted my pc,I can't open the main menu of the control.

The same with quit,I have to shut down Arc Control service in task manager that I can reopen the control,but I can't adjust any settings.

I have tried to use DDU to reinstall the driver but it doesn‘t solve this issue.

Is this a bug?Or maybe something is wrong with my pc?

I think there is a memory leak. I have nothing loaded in Windows but the drivers. The memory usage is incredibly high and keeps overbearingly going upward and the CPU usage is very high keeping in mind this is a Core i7-12700H. The CPU temperature is 89 degrees and the fans are spinning hard. I have never been in such a predicament regarding the fan speed and high temperatures heretofore. As of writing this the RAM used by Intel Arc Control has surpassed 25 Gigabytes and is going upward with pell-mell speeds.

I reverted back to driver version 31.0.101.4676 after uninstalling version 31.0.101.4824 with DDU from Safe Mode. The RAM and CPU usage are perfectly normal now and the CPU temperature has been immediately brought down along with the speed of the fans. So my previous post definitely unveils a major problem with the latest version of the driver - 31.0.101.4824.
