UAC prompt at startup since Windows 10 FCU (Led Service and GPU Fan Helper)

[MaXeLL]

Hello,

since I updated my Windows 10 installation to the new Fall Creators Update (build 16299.15), everytime after i log into my account, I receive these two UAC prompts:





ledcontrolservice.exe and GpuFanHelper.exe, the first one is from this package:

AURA RGB Lighting Control for Graphic card & ROG-XG-STATION-2 (needed to control heatsink leds for a GTX1080 Strix O8G VGA)

The second one is from AI Suite 3 package for my Asus Maximus VIII Extreme motherboard.

I have to press everytime "Si/Yes" to make them disappear, then I can use my computer without any issues, but you know, it's very frustrating.

Obviously I tried to reinstall the two softwares, but it didn't resolve.

What I have to do?

Well until fixed, you can reboot your machine with the ALT+F4 option instead of the traditional way.

Hi ASUS,

Any update on the matter? would like to be able to reboot in the traditional way and avoid the several annoying prompts of ledcontrolservice.exe.

Thanks.

GpuFanHelper.exe and ledcontrolservice.exe ... login a user admin account, run Task Manager as admin, modify these two processes to "Administrator" privilege, logout and login (or restart), enjoy. You may need to do this twice to get changes to persist on subsequent login/boot sessions.

ledcontrolservice.exe is not critical anyhow, you can end process in the Task Manager, then either delete ledcontrolservice.exe or rename it to something like ledcontrolservicebackup.exe. Or you can simply remove it from the HKLM_ and HKCU_Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\RunOnce registry keys and restart (twice).

ASUS should adapt their software to new KBs introduced by MS, just like they already resolved the GpuFanHelper.exe, they can easily resolve the ledcontrolservice.exe issue. It just seems like they prefer to ignore it, and by that - ignore their customers.

What exactly do you need to do , I started task manager as admin , ticking run as administrator had no effect or is it something else I need to do , can you elaborate ?
