You can always disable SupportAssist so it doesn't load at boot. That will put an end to the nagging, until they find a solution for this kind of issue...
I am trying to install: Intel-Management-Engine-Components-Installer_33K9H_WIN_2052.15.0.2069_A01_01.EXE I am not the first person to have problems installing IMECI, though others have had the issue with laptops rather than a desktop (XPS8940). I have tried all the suggestions listed elsewhere so wonder if anyone has any other ideas. I have tried updating through supportassist and through downloading the update from the Dell site. I have tried uninstalling the device (telling the device manager to delete the driver) and reinstalling. I have used the Microsoft uninstall software program as suggested. I have carried out reboots in between each stage. All without effect: Supportassist continues to tell me that the driver needs updating and when I check in the device manager the old driver is still listed. The only oddity that I have found is that the device is listed as “Intel(R) Management Engine Interface #1”. I have not seen the “#1” mentioned anywhere else in the descriptions. Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am out of ideas at the moment. Joules
