I recently started getting this exception and no amount of unstalling and reinstalling fixes the problem.
<DSAExceptionEvent xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="https://www.intel.com"><OS><Description>Windows 10 Pro</Description><Version>6.3</Version><Build>19042</Build><Release>2009</Release><EpmId>88002</EpmId></OS><DSAVersion>20.11.50.9</DSAVersion><Module>DSAServiceCore.dll</Module><ClassName>DSAServiceCore.Controllers.Session.SessionController</ClassName><MethodName>OnStart</MethodName><ExceptionType>JsonReaderException</ExceptionType><Message>Invalid character after parsing property name.

Any suggestions?

Hi Maria

Hi Maria
The answers
- Can you please confirm if the Intel* DSA was working fine before?
It worked fine up to December 2020 - Which specific drivers are you trying to download?
It was always running in the background, as designed, cheking that the drivers for my hardware is up to date - What browser are you using and its version?
Tried with Firefox 84.0.2 , Chrome 88.0.4324.96 and Edge - Besides the endless scanning, do you receive any error message?
Nothing apart from all the application errors appearing in Windows Event Viewer
Regards
George

Hello GMB,
Thank you for sharing your files. Our Dev team has reviewed them and this is a known issue that will be addressed in our upcoming driver release at the end of January. The Intel expectation is to have this new version launched next January 28th, then you should be able to successfully re-scan after that update.
Best regards,
