Hi @Saikiranbelana,

Thank you for posting in Intel community forum and hope all is well.
May I ask what are the OS of your host machine?

Just to double checked did you managed to install the opencl runtime driver? (may refer here for further steps)
Hope that clarify.

Best Wishes

Hi @Saikiranbelana,

Apologies for the delayed in response.
Based on the the installation and uninstallation of the driver seems not implemented with some privilege restriction.
My guess perhaps can try to check on your account access and if terminal are lunch with the right privilege.
Hope that help.

Note: If it is related to PCIe driver, would suggest to further check this session here.
