Armoury Crate the worst software ever?

Dramatic title but who cares, this software is absolutely dire, every other time there is an update is forgets i have RGB components in my computer, that includes the onbaord lighting of my Asus motherboard. it's like the original Star Trek movies where all the odd ones are fairly rubbish but the even ones are good, except you're forced to watch the odd ones and you can't skip them. I've been fairly loyal to Asus for around 2 decades but this is the final straw, i can't be bothered with the headache any-more of setting my red lighting with spinning effect only for the thing to default to rainbow puke the next day when i switch my computer on, i go into armoury crate to see it can't see any of RGB components. i've been here before, going through fixes, the only that remotely worked was to rollback but then you eventually get forced to update as it won't let you use Aura Creator or whatever. Sorry, i'm done with my rant.

Hi obi_tom,

I understand your frustration. I also had this issue with the Armoury Crate app. You can resolve the issue using these steps:

Steps to resolve the issue:

- Run PD Firmware Update Tool - find your motherboard "Drivers & Tools" tab via this link https://rog.asus.com/en/support/
- Run ME Update Tool - find your motherboard "Drivers & Tools" tab via this link https://rog.asus.com/en/support/
- Update the BIOS to the newest version - find your motherboard "BIOS & FIRMWARE" tab via this link https://rog.asus.com/en/support/
- Run the "Armoury_Crate_Uninstall_Tool 2.3.4.0" - on the "Drivers & Tools" tab on this link https://www.asus.com/supportonly/armoury%20crate/helpdesk_download/
- Do a computer restart
- Run "ArmouryCrateInstallTool 3.3.6.0" - on the "Drivers & Tools" tab on this link https://www.asus.com/supportonly/armoury%20crate/helpdesk_download/
- Update all ArmouryCrate features in the Armoury Crate app
- Do a computer restart

This solved the issue for me, hope it helps...
