Armoury Crate Panel Overdrive function has stopped working. again!

[rush5803]

So this problem has returned, the refresh rate service wont start, and as a result the Panel Overdrive Function in the Armoury Crate is a fidget button, in other words it doesnt do anything.

This is the error in event viewer when we try to start the service manually:

Service cannot be started. System.ArgumentNullException: Value cannot be null.

ASUS PLEASE FIX YOUR SOFTWARE, i know it might have something to do with windows 11 itself, but its high time you adapt your software to the OS, and fix things up.

btw, my current device is zephyrus g15 (2021)

Igot the same issue with the G17 (2021)

so i have found a temporary solution, you can use it until asus comes up with an official one, this will fix the overshoot or inverse ghosting that you have on your display

so here are the steps you need to follow:

1. create a batch file with this content in it:

@Echo off
powershell -Command "$asusWmi = get-WmiObject -class AsusAtkWmi_WMNB -Namespace root\WMI -Impersonation Impersonate; $asusWmi.DEVS(0x00050019, 0)"

save it, than run as administrator

2. you can also schedule a task to run it every time on startup, cause the changes do reset on every startup

ps- remember to toggle on the run with highest previlages 

WARNING: RUN AT YOUR OWN RISK!

Wow, you should be the engineer of asus, because I can't turn off this option, which makes me sick to play snow map. After using your bat, I turned off od.
