RST service not running on Windows10

Hi,

I recently upgraded to Windows10 Pro 64bit and I noticed that the RST service is not running (icon has a yellow "!" mark) and my computer was slightly slower than before. I'm not very good in these stuff but I feel something's wrong when a driver is not working. I tried restarting the service manually, ran it in compatibility mode, and it all failed. I tried the Intel Update Utility but it did not detect any new drivers. I also tried to install the latest 14.5.0.1081 driver (SetupRST.exe) manually from Intel's download site but it showed a failure message and says "This platform is not supported"

I really need help with this, thanks!

Hello TetraEngine;

This very weird problem; please go to programs installed and uninstall the RST drivers.

Then please download the latest drivers and setup from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25165/Intel-Rapid-Storage-Technology-Intel-RST-RAID-Driver https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/25165/Intel-Rapid-Storage-Technology-Intel-RST-RAID-Driver

Also please make sure you have the latest drivers for the motherboard and graphics for the system.

Was a solution found for this problem? I am having the same issue. I was running Window 10 with Intel RST just fine, but something (latest Windows patches?) seems to have broke it. I tried to repair and that didn't work. I tried to remove the software, then reinstall, however that fails with this "... platform is not supported." message. I have attached my debug log. It mentions a Win32 exception and 'Error in device matching'.

Well, I ran SSU and discovered a drive which looked odd. Turns out it was disabled because Windows 10 thought it was a duplicate of another disk. I then discovered the my motherboard SATA settings were reset (probably by me, messing around) and no longer listed the RAID. I believe this is the root cause for my particular issue: human error.

I am a bit scared now that if I try to recreate my RAID1 it will wipe all the data on the drives. I'll have to find out more information about this before I do that.

Thanks. You've at least pointed me in the right direction to get me the information I needed to determine why my system was acting up.

Thanks for checking, Esteban. I have, honestly, been too scared to try yet. I don't yet have additional storage to back up my files and don't want to risk putting the RAID back together only to have the system format everything out of existence. Right now I'm taking the risk of running without RAID (which is just as dangerous, I know). I hope to be able to save off all my files soon and then recreate the RAID in my BIOS.
