it shows Windows only , i tried downloading and adding more power option / profiles through microsoft but they are not showing up in the ppower and management section of the contol panal . I don't know how but the previous restore point and the restore point option both are missing . afte through scan using Antimalware i'm sure my PC is not affected by malware . but restoration option is automatically turned off and the restore point that i manualy create are also missing .

so for now i tried re installing the armoury crate software but it did'nt solve anything still same battery draining issu . the idel usage or base clock is around 3200mhz which is making the Cpu run really hot and on battery it's utilizing 2900-3000mhz 

what should i do ? how can i go back to the old version of the Armoury crate ?

[OrionDhruv]

How can i roll back to the older version of the armoury crate ?
My idel tems on Armourry crate 3.6.0 was 48-49C at max @1600 mhz But now today i upgraded my armoury crate by accident and now after restart i noticed my temps were 79-85 @3829mhz at idle my background activiy was nill memory consumption was 30% @16Gb and the cpu was not at load , why is this happening ? My devic is Rog Strix G15 G513QM ryzen 9 5900hx & 3060 (130W). what should i do ? my batterry is alo draining faster . before my battery lasted 4:30 - 5 hrs now it's not even 2 hrs .   : (

I checked with ASUS tech support and was told that there's no support for rolling back older version of Armourry crate. I guess your best bet is to find an Armourry crate 3.6.0 installer download, do a full uninstall of the updated Armourry crate on your system, and then install Armourry crate 3.6.0. You can go to ASUS support site and look for Drivers & software download. Armourry crate is under "Software and Utility" in the download section. The Armourry crate download over there should be the original version of it that came with your system.

I bought my mouse after this update, so I cannot confirm if this update broke it.

ROG Harpe Ace Aim Lab Edition
Angle Snapping is temperamental on Win11, it seems to sometimes works. I suspect anticheat in games, as it would SOMETIMES stop working when I open Valorant and then work after closing it SOMETIMES. It also needs an intensity slider as it's barely noticeable when in effect. 

This was on a fresh Win11 install, Armoury Crate has been installed multiple times as troubleshooting. As of writing, it's now working after running the uninstall tool.

Hello, today my lighting service randomly disappeared when the system went to sleep. Its missing from the services window (checked with cmd to see if it was just visual), the registry in "Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\", and the folder inside "C:\Program Files (x86)\".

Is are there any log files which can help find out what caused this? I'll wait for a reply before reinstalling so I don't accidentally delete them.

Device is a 2021 ROG Strix G17 G713QR-ES96Q
Canada variant with 3070, 1440p 165 Hz IPS, 5900HX, In Grey/Black chassis 🙂

Screenshots below:

Update and temporary fix!

Found the files on another laptop and put them in program files (x86)

Exported the registry key from another laptop and added to this one

manually added the service from cmd with "sc.exe create LightingService binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\LightingService\LightingService.exe""

Edited the registry entry path to have quotes around it so the spaces in "Program Files (x86)" dont cause any issue

Ran "sc.exe start lightingservice" in cmd

Keyboard changed colour!

Only thing which isnt fixed is it doesnt show in services

Since I did not get any kind of response to my post a week ago, I'll try here. 

"Thanks Asus for fudging up my computer…

I noticed that my custom picture on the CPU Cooler was gone, so I went in to Armoury Crate to change it…

Well that started of a whole series of things.

My fans started to speed up and die, speed up and die like they are stuck in a loop. The RGBs follow the same pattern and in my headphones i hear the sound like I am repetedly plugging/unplugging something in my PC.

I first started with using the uninstall tool and re-installing everything to do with armoury crate. That seemed to fix the looping issue.

But since that, I have gotten all kinds of **bleep** happening. High temps, constant lagg-spikes when gaming, several bluescreens. 

I have even resorted to reinstalling Windows… And things are still the same.

Now what? My entire PC build cost me ~5500$ and now I can’t seem to enjoy it because of your **bleep**ty update?!

I hope to see a quick answer to this matter. Because that is what will determine if any Asus thing will ever get in this house again…"

I built the computer in december and everything has been working fine up to the latest update of armoury.
And since you don't provide any options to downgrade or install any previous versions... I can't seem to solve this...

ASUS will be out of this house...

This morning, while watching YouTube on my PC I noticed my ROG AURA wasn't synchronized.

I opened AC to unselect all - select all in the AURA section, but the page didn't load, and I got the message I wasn't connected to the internet ha ha ha

Great analysis by the AC software

[Crasje]

The ASUS AURA SYNC lighting service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 5 time(s).

Any suggestion what to do?
