[SOLVED] After you uninstall Intel XTU, ROG Gaming Center won't work anymore

The problem
When you uninstall Intel XTU, it will remove also XTU3SERVICE and ROG Gaming Center's fan/overclock control + CPU/GPU MHz counters won't work anymore. Trying to reinstall ROG Gaming Center from "C:\eSupport\eDriver\Software\Win32App\ASUS\ROG Gaming Center" won't fix it.

Solution
after you uninstall Intel XTU, run the following commands from an admin prompt to re-register XTU3SERVICE again, and reboot:

sc create XTU3SERVICE displayname= "Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility Service" binpath= "C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Intel(R) Extreme Tuning Utility\XtuService.exe" type= own start= delayed-auto

sc description XTU3SERVICE "The XTU Service allows client access to overclocking functionality"
