SupportAssist

In the last couple of weeks, it always gets stuck on Checking Updates at 0%. 

I have tried repair, reset, and uninstall. 

I can't get any of them to fix it. After running uninstall, and trying to re-install, I get the message that the current version is installed--and it is!  I have re-booted the computer after every attempt. 

I am running windows 11 home and I believe all drivers are the latest, except as others have found, the Realtek audio drivers don't work well under windows 11.

Hi wdaren:

What is your Dell comupter model and what is the edition (Home or Pro), version and build number of your Win 11 OS shown at Settings | System | About | Windows Specifications? What is your current BIOS version? If you aren't sure, open a Run dialog box (Windows+R keys), enter msinfo32 to open your System Information panel, and look for the “BIOS Version/Date” field?

What version of SupportAssist is shown at Control Panel | Programs | Programs and Features? If I launch SupportAssist then Options (gear icon) | About reports I have the latest v3.11.4.29 but a few users have reported that a new v3 12.1.180 was pushed out to their computer this past week.

SupportAssist v3_11_4 Options About v3_11_4 Current as of 27 Aug 2022.png

Please read my 01-Sep-2022 post in Playkid's SupportAssist Not Updating and let us know if:

  • Control Panel | Programs | Programs and Features shows that Microsoft .NET Runtime v5.0.17 is installed on your system
  • Start | Windows Administrative Tools | Services shows that the Dell Client Management Service as well as Dell TechHub (a new service that should have been added by the SupportAssist v3.11.4.29 installer) both have a Status of "Running".
