ASUS Ai Suite III Not Opening After Windows Update(Intel vulnerability patch)

Hi Guys

My Mainboard: ASUS Z97-K (Up To Date Bios 2902 ) And OS: Windows 10 X64 FCU 1709 Buid:16299.192)

After Update OS ( KB4056892 ) , My AI Suite 3 will not open. No errors pop up or anything. It just won't open.
 
I'd recommend you ween yourself off of any motherboard utility, as most of the stuff you can do right in the UEFI:

They usually cause more headaches than help.
I agree with that. Completely.

You can "uninstall" the ASUS Suite software, but it will still leave some remnant programs which load at boot-time. They do not "do anything" -- as much to say they don't use any clock-cycles. They just use a tiny bit more of your memory -- unnecessarily. The only way to get rid of them requires use of an ASUS utility. I would run a search at the ROG web-pages.

My Sabertooth Z170 board is listed in my sig. The Suite version bundled with the board was really elegant, and assisted me with tuning my fans and other features, but I wish I hadn't installed it for the troubles I mentioned here already.

And the advantage of ASUS boards which I cannot guarantee exist for those of other board-makers: you can set up the fans and "fan-curves" in BIOS. So you don't need the Suite software. Even the monitoring feature is totally unnecessary. You're better off using HWInfo64 or HWMonitor.

I don't think there are many serious overclockers who rely on board-makers' windows programs, either. I don't.
