"Sorry, something went wrong while trying to scan." Problem just started after working correctly for many months (years?). The program "Intel Driver and Support Assistant" does not appear even after reinstallation.

I tried all recommendations made to other inquirers -- ie uninstall then reinstall with latest version after reboot.

The message "Sorry, something went wrong..." occurs whenever the "Intel Driver and Support Assistant" is first run. But Intel Driver and Support Assistant tool will not run properly after its first use upon fresh installation. I have attached the screen shot showing the result when I tried to run it now. Then I rebooted and ran it again showing results on page 2 of attached Word Doc.

I have always used the Firefox browser. It is default.

I am not attempting to install a specific driver. I am running thge "Intel Driver and Support Assistant" to check for possible new drivers. The program runs automatically every week (or every time I reboot the system whichever comes first)

[MHuds6]

Note: In my previous message, the screen showing a reference to "iCloud" popped-up when I launched the Intel Driver and Support Assistant. The Intel program was running behind that window but I didn't see it until I sent the above message waws written. The Intel Driver and Support Assistant DID NOT complete successfully but responded with the "Sorry, something went wrong..." message which I found behind the "iCloud" message.

Hello WannerG_Intel,

I am also following your troubleshooting instructions since I have the same problem. I've installed and uninstalled the versions with no success the versions you told us before, so I am also including my log files for your review. Thanks

[MHuds6]

I'm ready to give up! I installed the huge Microsoft Windows 10 update yesterday and ran the System File Checker (SFC) showing no system errors. My WiFi is working, my graphics are working, so why should I care. Seems that Intel made a change and now their Driver and Support Assistant will not work. Perhaps they will notify us when we can reinstall it knowing it will work again.

Hello MHuds6,

The log files attached are not Intel® DSA log files. Are you retrieving the log files from the C:\ProgramData\Intel\DSA folder?
