Driver assistant download stuck at 0%

[venturozzaccio]

HI,

I started experiencing problems downloading drivers via IDSA some months ago. Both Edge and Chrome couldn't get the download to start. I was able to download the driver once with Firefox.

Today I cannot get even Firefox to start the download (I attach the screenshot). 

I have kaspersky with firewall permission for IDSA, I even disable it without success. I also try reinstall the IDSA, removing the folders, rebooting the system and using incognito mode without success.

Any help? Thanls

Chrome: 89.0.4389.114 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Firefox: 87.0 (64 bit)

Edge: Version 89.0.774.75 (Official build) (64-bit)

I uninstall once with Windows apps, then using the IDSA installer, then I also tried removing folders and registry entries with CCleaner and reinstalling again.

Hello venturozzaccio

The first step to resolve this is to completely disable Kaspersky since it has shown issues with the Intel® DSA. Just by disabling it, the problem should be resolved. For more information, please check  Intel® Driver & Support Assistant (Intel® DSA) is Stuck at 0% when Trying to Download new Updated Drivers https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000058791/software/software-applications.html

If you already tested those steps and they didn't work, make sure the Intel® DSA accesses localhost on ports 28385-28389. It also connects to www.intel.com, downloadcenter.intel.com, and downloadmirror.intel.com, all on port 443 (HTTPS).

Hi,

I tried disabling Kaspersky but that didn't help.

Before unistalling it, I tried updating Kaspersky (unfortunatly it doesn't update automatically) and this fixed the issue. I guess the last update of Kaspersky Internet Security had a bug preventing DSA downloading the files.

Thanks for the assistance.
