Command Center is set ot turn out the lights after 30 minutes inactivity. By reaching the time Windows UAC is prompting. What can I do to stop this, because lights never turn out?

Reportedly, that happens with old buggy versions. Try a clean-install of this AWCC version (v.4.0.51.0)

Installed Version is 4.0.51.0...

Clean install of Windows Creator and ACC were made in April 2017.

Well, to tell you the truth ... if that was the only thing not working, I would just not use that feature. Let the lights go off with the machine or it's sleep.

 

You can try a clean-install of this version. It says it's for the x51-R3, but if it installs it should work because I don't think AlienFX is actually different between the 2 models.

I understand.

 

Clean-Install (complete uninstall, reboot, install new proper recommended version, reboot, test)

should fix that or at least, that is what I would try first to fix it.
