I had a popup (I assume from EZ Update) saying a new version of GRID was available and clicked to install it (hoping the flaws from GRID beta were fixed).
The install stalled at somewhere between 10-15% and never finished even after leaving it for an hour. I had to reboot and when I after I did so the GRID install popped up again with no option to refuse it or close it. Now the install sits at zero percent and never moves. I've had to use task manager to kill it. I've had to do a couple more reboots since and every time the GRID install pops up and does nothing, needing to be killed with Task manager each time.
I've tried to locate what is triggering this with no success. I couldn't find anything using Autoruns. So I assume EZ Update is just launching it every time I reboot.
So two questions;
How can I get it to actually install?
or
How can I get it to stop trying to install on every reboot?
edit: More information: The program that actually runs is "AsusDownLoadLicense.exe" and it seems to be in c:\windows\system32. Looking in that folder I can see a few more files that are likely related; syncas.dll, AsusDownloadAgent.exe, wpbbin.exe and AsusUpdateCheck.exe
I've also located a folder c:\program files (x86)\Asus\AsusGridInstallPackage which looks (obviously) like it contains the setup files for GRID. However, the dates on that are back in 2018 so I suspect they're leftovers from the GRID beta.
None of which is telling me what is actually triggering the install 😞
