Hi. I can't update FanXpert SDK bacause all i got is download, install then update button again with Red triangle. All of this after fresh Windows 11 install. I try and try again but nothing helps. Any suggestion ? And of course now i can't open the FanXpert device page because it is show the update but i can't update.

SOLUTION FOR ERROR CODE 238 FANXPERT ARMOURY CRATE by LinkinForcer
1. Enter the folder C:\Program Files\ASUS\RLSDownload\FanXpert\... until you find the sdkSetup.exe file -> run it -> the installation will ask for a reset, ok -> Reset!
2. After booting Windows go to the same previous location and find the setup.exe file -> run it -> a brief window appears quickly and is gone!
3. Go back to the C:\Program Files\ASUS\RLSDownload\ folder and delete the <FanXpert> folder with everything inside it, done!
4. Open the AC -> go to the bottom left Settings icon -> go to the Update Center tab -> and click on the first top right button called “Search for Updates”, after that the AC will be looking for updates for a while and when finished FanXpert will disappear -> it's a greater joy to see it, and the best is yet to come -> you enter the menu -> Fan Xpert and FAN XPERT 4 opens as it always worked.

NOTE: "If for some reason this does not work. Make sure that armoury crate is open both times you run the sdksetuo and the setup after the restart. If that still doesn't work after checking for updates it should download the FanXpert folder again. Repeat the steps and it should work then. I just did a clean install and it did not work the first time around when I had armoury crate closed. Second time it worked with armoury crate open." (by LinkinForcer)

Worked for me.
Thanks for helping fixing it!

I have to reinstall my AC frequently, I have so many ROG devices and slowly 1 or 2 stop to work in AC. Usually within 1-2 days. Whenever I need something set, I reinstall again.

IF you reinstall, you will see that this SDK install error is back again.

Well that, we are living a nightmare with all this! We need installers marked with version numbers and stating whether it's stable or in beta for download and installs over the internet! In the other post we already have more than 25 thousand views and if Asus hasn't done anything until now, that's the end!

I've tried 2/3 times, because I did something wrong maybe... but when I did in the same letter way... it works!
