Intel power gadget on windows doesn't start

[Neyri]

Hello,

I try to use Intel Power Gadget 3.5 on a Windows computer with a Intel® Core™ i9-10900K CPU. The installation seems to work fine but when starting the exe, nothing happens (no window shows up). I've also tried to query it using PowerLog3 but it returns an error. @Seung-Woo_K_Intel and @joeolivas, I don't know what could be the issue, do you have any insights ?

Attached are the output of the CPU-Z command, and a screenshot of the output of the powerlog3 query.

Thank you

Hi @Neyri 

Thanks for reaching out. You are hitting a known issue in Power Gadget, and there will be a new release coming very soon that should resolve the issue on the newer CPUs.

Thanks!
