Unable to start XTU because the drivers are not present (i7-6850k)

[Jurgen00000]

After updating from XTU 7.0.1.4 to 7.5.3.3, I'm getting the following message when trying to start it:

"Unable to start Intel Extreme Tuning Utility because the drivers are not present. Install the latest version Intel Extreme Utility from https://www.intel.com"

I've already tried these steps, but they don't fix the issue:

Thanks.

I've installed older versions and found the following:

-Version 7.4.1.3 works.

-Version 7.5.2.3 doesn't work, shows the same error.

Hello Jurgen00000

In regards to this behavior, we would like to inform you our team is working on a fix for this issue and this should be implemented in the newer versions of Intel® Extreme Tuning Utility (Intel® XTU) (e.g. XTU 7.6.x.x).

We don't have an ETA for the exact release date nor the exact version so we recommend visiting Intel Downloadcenter and keep checking for the latest version of Intel XTU available.
