"ArmourySWAgent.exe" Window Running In the Background

[JonTeoh]

Hi, I am currently using a ROG Laptop G531GW. My current Armoury Crate Version is 4.2.5.0

Just recently, Armoury Crate pushed out an update of "ASUS Framework Services - Version: 2.1.1.3".

After updating, a "ArmourySWAgent (32bit).exe" window is running in the background after boot up and does not go away. It can be seen when using Alt-Tab, and can also be seen running in task manager.





This is really annoying to see this in the background. I am getting frustrated as your updates keep solving one issue but in turn creates another. ASUS, can you please fix this?

Not only upon startup, but every time you open the Armoury Crate as well.

Very very annoying!

On top of that, the "Device" tab in Armoury now appears A LOT slower than before the update. I only have one device, ROG Strix Go 2.4 Wireless Headset.

Yes, same happen in G533.

A workaround is to simply press "Win key" + "Tab" and click on "New Desktop" and then drag this ArmourySwAgent windows to the new desktop that you have just created it.



This is temporarily solution until ASUS fixes it.

Same issue here on a B550-F after installing the new update. RGB lighting is also now not loading the profile/proper LED color upon reboot.

Sadly that doesn't work for me because the window doesn't even show up when Alt-Tab-ing. It is only on the desktop. I can maximize, minimize or close it but I cannot drag it to a second desktop. There is also no icon in the left upper corner for me as is in all the pictures I have seen of it so far.

Same here. Everything seems to function ok, except for the minimized window/process hanging around.
