Form and log submitted.
No lighting service-related info in the log, please record and replicate again, thanks. You may upload to your existing Google Form.
Do none of the device pages work? Did you see any error codes or just a blank page?
Do you mean you clicked the Profiles button to select a saved profile, but none showed up?

Devices Tab shows 6 Aura Sync Compatible devices, yet I cannot sync any of them that I normally have synced because the Aura Sync tab does not detect ANY of my Aura Sync Compatible devices. Also, the Device Tab does not show any options for adjusting settings for any of my 6 ASUS devices and my Scenario Profiles tab shows no options for my saved Scenario profile.

I have done a full uninstall of Armoury Crate using the Armoury Crate uninstall tool and full install using the most recent Armoury Crate install tool.

Log attached in a separate form received. Please provide 2 logs using AC Lite Log Tool and ACLogTool


When Armoury Crate is opened, the only tabs that show are 'Tools', 'News', 'Update Center' and 'Settings'. The remaining tabs show up about 30 seconds after opening Armoury Crate.

When I open a device page, it shows 'loading...' for a few minutes and then 'Page Error' We are sorry. There is an error with the device page. The application is going to reload the device page now. (2005). After clicking the 'Ok' button the same multiple minute cycle of the word 'loading...' followed by the same error message occurs. All device pages have the Error 2005 and will occasionally show no information with the standard Armoury Crate background and no 'loading...' message.

The Scenario Profile page shows only one toggle box under 'App Configuration', 'System Configuration' and 'Connected Device Configuration' headers disappear once the Profile loads. There were at least 3 toggle options under each of the headers that disappear before the V5.3.4.0 update. Sonic Studio 3 status was one of the toggle options under System Configuration, and I do not recall the other options.

The Aura Sync page now shows all of my Aura Sync compatible devices (after 5 more restarts of my computer). Also, the Aura Sync page displays 'No Internet Connection' occasionally, and will also occasionally not let me unsync an Aura Sync compatible device.

I was looking through Task Manager on my computer, as I noticed inconsistent CPU usage, and I found that 'ARMOURY CRATE User Session Helper' process is running for about 2-4 seconds and then crashing repeatedly. There are occasional times where 'ARMOURY CRATE User Session Helper' process status will say 'Suspended' just before the process disappearing from the Processes list in Task Manager. I have uploaded a photo of the 'Suspended' state just before it crashes in my original post (Post #11).

I have also submitted another log file via the Google Forms a few days ago.

Please provide 2 logs - one from each the AC Lite Log Tool and another from ACLogTool

Download AC Lite Log Tool here: https://www.asus.com/supportonly/armoury crate/helpdesk_download/

Also provide a log using the ACLogTool, download here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_RI4qSlrmcLRI_TGkE4HBUXbAaQzvom_?usp=share_link
1. Unzip the attached file ACLogTool.zip, and double click to launch ACLogTool.exe
2. Check “Enable Log� checkbox (uncheck and recheck it if it’s already checked when you launch the .exe)
3. Restart your system
4. Reproduce the issue (Launch Armoury Crate and wait until the error occurred)
5. Launch ACLogTool.exe, and click the “Collect Log� button
6. The folder will automatically pop up, please provide the .logE file inside the folder to us (attach to Form or PM me the cloud link)
7. Remember to uncheck “Enable Log� to stop recording the dump (the dump file will fill up your C: if you forget to disable it)

Hello

Until this morning, my armoury crate was working fine. It detects my ROG STRYX FLARE keyboard and my RAMS
This evening, all stopped... it detects none of both. Tried uninstall, reinstalling armoury crate still nothing
It detects the keyboard on devices, but when I click it, says Framework busy all the time
And Aura sync tab shows no devices at all
Uninstall tool also doesn't seem to clean completely for some reason

Thanks

Got an update for AUS HAL Central today, it detects my Stryx Flare Keyboard again, but not the RAM sticks which was detected few weeks ago.
But when choosing the Keyboard on "Device" tab, it is still doing "The System is busy. Please wait for ASUS Framework Service to Respond"

Same here, after two hours still.

Form with valid log received, case is processing. Is your system overclocked?

I bought a ROG Maximus Z690 Extreme one year ago, which has a lot of RGB on it. I also have 2 G-Skill RAM modules with RGB and a led strip. Next to it an Asus Chakram Core mouse with RGB. When all is set up it works ok, all rgb syncs nicely.
That is until i shut down my pc and turn it on next day. Most of the time either 1 of the RAM RGB will hang or blink in 1 corner or simply not turn on, or the mouse is not recognized and doesn't sync anymore.
To fix it i have to reboot at least 4 times to get it to recognize everything and sync properly again. The RAM will only reset properly if i shut off the pc, but then most of the times my mouse is not recognized, the mouse will only be recognized after a restart.
It is highly frustrating that after 1 year this software is still not stable enough to make this work properly.
I found that it is a little more stable if i change the lightingservice to start delayed instead of direct.

I read in one of the posts before this one that it should keep this settings even during reboot??? That never happened as far as i know. It ALWAYS boots with the default rainbows.
Oh, and i posted this before and it is still not solved: I can turn off "In-Game lighting effects", but that setting always turns back on.

Update: I just uninstalled and reinstalled AC twice, and guess what... Now i can no longer update ROG Fan Controller and Chakram, so i am not able to control my fans or my mouse!!!! So much for that tip.... Btw, i made a separate post for this error 12 (#60). I hope someone can help me with this.
96343
To make matters even weirder, the RAM which was failing all the time now seems to be the most stable RGB component. The motherboard now has problems loading RGB after cold boot. I seems to work after a restart.
UPDATE 24-11-2022: Somehow this is solved, the HAL has been updated (no idea how). But i am back to my original problem, the RGB on my RAM modules and mouse is really unstable. 9 out of 10 times it does not work properly after cold boot and i need to restart several times to get it right.

I can not imagine this is how it should be with a motherboard of 900 euros.

Form received without a log. Note that you can commence recording for a log and stop (generate) after you have rebooted. Please attach a log to your existing form to proceed, thanks.

I always get this error on shut down or restart:
---------------------------
null window: NVIDIA Web Helper.exe - Application Error
---------------------------
The instruction at 0x000000006308BD60 referenced memory at 0x000000006308BD60. The memory could not be written.


Click on OK to terminate the program
---------------------------
OK
---------------------------

This is a clean windows install with stock bios settings. Windows was updated fully first. Then I installed the chipset drivers from AMD. Nvidia drivers and Geforce Experience from Nvidia. No other programs, software or apps were installed. If I uninstall Armoury Crate using the uninstall tool the problem goes away. If I uninstall Geforce Experience the problem also goes away. The problem lies with armoury crate and Geforce Experience not talking to one another correctly. Since the problem happens at shutdowns or restarts a log is not possible. This is a custom built desktop with mostly Asus ROG parts. Strix 2080Super Advanced, Strix X570-e AMD Motherboard, Strix LC II 360 ARGB, Fusion II 500 Headset, Strix Flare Keyboard, Rog Spatha Mouse

Error 12 resolved. Refer to previous issue #56.

After having issues with the lighting i uninstalled AC and installed it again. I did this about 6 times and I still am unable to update the HAL for my fan controller and my chakram core. I keep getting a code 12 error.

My windows event log shows me the following:
96344
96345
96346
96347
The logfile verify.log in C:\Program Files\ASUS\Aac_Mouse shows this:
[2022-11-18 11:40:50]

Which makes sense, since that file really does not exist. Only verify.log exists in that directory.
I can't find errors or logs for the fan controller, but it won't install either...

UPDATE 24-11-2022: Somehow, all magically, this problem is solved... The HAL has been updated. But now I am back to my previous error post #56... My RGB is really unstable, specially on the RAM modules...

I had been running Armoury Crate for a while, but I tried updating it and the installation failed.

I've tried Using the Uninstaller Tool and disabling AV but am still getting the 601 error when I try to reinstall it.
I have raised the following request, but they pointed me here. Case No: U2210000424-0004 K7MCKC014535FZJ


I've completed the form and attached a screenshot of the error and the log file
