![]() The list of newly added ASUS services is even longer: AI Noise Cancelation Audio Software SDK.The list of programs is taken from Control Panel and is probably not complete: Here’s a list of what gets installed together with Armoury Crate. This can’t be good for performance and battery life. There are also tons of services that run in the background, all the time. Look how many programs are installed together with Armoury Crate. Too many installed programs and running services – this is the worst offender, by far. Tons of useless stuff that bloat the app even more. Also, why is there a News section in the Armoury Crate app? Then there’s the featured section: game deals, community wallpapers, Anime Matrix animations, and recommended apps. You have a user center, with your ASUS registered profile, your devices, bonus points, registered events, and a few other things. Optimized – laptop uses Standard mode when connected to the wall, and Eco Mode when battery-powered.Eco Mode – the laptop always uses the iGPU.Standard – laptop switches GPUs automatically, but the video is routed through the weaker iGPU.If you also have a MUX switch you’ll see a few other options. Anyway, if you have two GPUs inside your laptop (integrated on CPU and dedicated chip) this is where you control how they work. GPU mode – this Armoury Crate section is labeled GPU Power Saving, but honestly it doesn’t make much sense to be called like this. It’s not clear to me if the Windows plans are completely ignored when using ASUS’s plans, or if just some settings are overwritten. Nothing to complain about here.īesides these three ASUS-specific performance profiles there’s the option to customize one or more Manual profiles, and you can even revert to Windows’s power plans. Also, your choice is remembered for both plugged-in and on-battery states. There’s even a dedicated keyboard shortcut that switches between Silent, Performance (default), and Turbo. You can move the panels around and turn them On or Off. On the right side of the interface, you’ll see a bunch of panels, including CPU stats (frequency, usage, temperature, voltage), GPU stats (chip frequency, usage, temperature, memory frequency, voltage, maximum TGP value, and GPU power saving mode currently active), Memory and Storage plus quite a few others. Performance profiles – on a laptop, it’s pretty amazing that you get the option to control CPU power limits, GPU max temperature target & overclocking, fan profiles, MUX switch configuration, and display panel overdrive. The most complete currently available is this one, which includes the Aura Cleaner tool and multiple versions of Aura Sync.While I wish Armoury Crate was a much better piece of software, I do reckon it does a few things well. There are users sharing older versions in Google Drive. For others, that is not available anymore, and old links just give a 404. (*) It seems for some devices, Asus Support still keeps older versions of Aura specific for that device (hidden after a "show all"). If it crashes, start again trying another version. If there is a subfolder "LightingService", get in and install first "AuraServiceSetup.exe". Before extracting, open the ZIP properties and check the check box "Unblock".Choose the Aura version you are going to install, and download the ZIP.Run CCleaner (or similar registry cleaner program) to clean registry of left Aura-related entries.If there is any Aura-related folders in Program Files or Program Files (x86), delete them manually.$params = "/uninstall", "/passive", "/norestart" Get-ChildItem "D:\Downloads\Lighting_Control_1.07.71\LightingService\aac" -Filter *.exe | Set-ExecutionPolicy -ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted This will uninstall the "Program Files\ASUS*" programs if any: Run the following script from PowerShell as administrator (you may save it as a.Run the Asus Aura Cleaner tool (if available see (*) below).After that, for some users one of the new versions -1.06XX, 1.07XX- worked, but for others (like me) they needed to user an older Aura -0.0.XX-, typically one for your specific device, if available (*). It is necessary to do a proper cleaning of previous versions of Aura before trying another. The error "AuraService is currently unavailable" is affecting many users trying to fix it. Aura Sync crashes when graphics tablet is plugged inĪsus Aura Sync is a very buggy software, and new versions did not fix it.
