Intel Storage Icon not working on windows 10

[VisciousFishes]

I have tried and tried, but try as I might I am unable to use the RST icon in my task manager.

The service is running used the most up to date RST drivers. I am used to seeing the disc with the tick in the task bar on my previous installation but this installation is not allowing me to use the service correctly. I did finally get the icon up and running but a reset to confirm the installation results in no RST icon on the screen.

I have tried multiple "fixes" that haven't worked including turning the service from delayed automatic start to automatic start. Bios is set to AHCI/

Asus ROG strix Z390-F - i9 9900k
RAM and discs etc seems irrelevant unless asked for.
Windows build 1903 Pro x64. (Fresh install last week)

Many thanks in advance.

Fixes attempted are as follows

I have tried a few other fixes but they ultimately end up the same way - not fixed.

Again, many thanks for reading.

Pretty sure I didn't need to do that in my last intel system. I will check it out later as I afk right now.

Just uninstall all that Intel junk bloatware, all u need is intel chipset INF and Intel management services.

I was after something a little more, well, less biased against intel. Guess I am in the wrong place.

i have installed intel RST many years ago on my old intel dh55tc mobo. it ran fine. then one day the icon for it was gone.

i also installed recently on my sibling's cheap desktop PC (small office), intel pentium g5400 + asus mobo and the rst run fine.

if you have a fast internet, all important files are backed up somewhere else, just fresh install windows 10 b1903 and install all drivers one at a time and reboot as needed.

But also make sure you are installing the latest drivers/software for each. Outdated stuff might refuse to work properly under a newer os build such as 1903

I have been using both the support DVD that came with mobo and the website installers. This build (1903) has changed quite a bit. E.g.- my bluray writer needed a reg edit and reinstall as the drive was assumed to be a CD-rom not BD-RW. I have even gone through the Intel site and the Asus site using the most recent installation programs.

Suffice to say I am still rebuilding libraries and sorting thru the whole "2 download libraries". There are ownership issues as they are mapped according to my old system. All drives from that system migrated but the library drives haven't been revamped.

However, a side note, I was having issues with my DAW recording software (not a steam product) which was caused by Acronis True Image software. The exec needed to be white listed from my "Ransome ware protection". Took me and the support team days of back and forth with a remote access support to narrow it down to that one function of another piece of software. It literally knocked minutes off Studio One's start up time. (I won't bore you with details but at first look he said "something definitely not right here")

Here's something ironic though - before yesterday I was unable to remove the drives via safe removal. Now, three of my four sata drives can be safely removed.

Being a new system I think there are .net framework and c++ redistributables that haven't been downloaded. I saw some being installed with video editing software installs earlier and I just had another one update thru win update. I believe right now, that it could be linked to some .net framework version missing. (Although that has not been an error reported.)

P.s. I did not mean to be rude to you earlier. I am sorry if i came across as rude. I appreciate you were only trying to help.

Edit: spelling mistakes.

he is correct maybe 1903 is just acting buggy its still almost in beta mode hope you fix your problem, i think i over heard that when we update windows sometimes certain apps dont read it and get bugged out could be wrong but i know OS on consoles often do this so im sure windows and other OS could potentially glitch on updates

The motherboard disc is useless and outdated. Get all latest drivers from the motherboard makers site. But those are only listed with updates for the life of the board, so usually only 2-3 years. After that you get the drivers from the chipset makers site, such as getting intel stuff directly off the intel site, etc.

Update to the latest bios as well as this can often be required for the latest drivers and software made for the board to work plus it generally addresses some issues that have been patched over time, such as various compatiblities, security holes, even sometimes general performance.

Yes, fast internet (adsl 108Mbps) and an install DVD now (bought second licence for new machine cos I need another licence).

This is a brand new install of windows. A week old at best and done from disc with latest windows build (see comment made to BadMother).

I also use Acronis for backing up as well as WD backup, both of which are done to an external drive. I do understand your start again approach, but I want to avoid the nuclear option. All important files are stored on auxiliary drives. My boot ssd just holds most important instrument, plugin and editing software.

always get a side hdd for your important files never use the main boot as a place to store stuff man, stay organized with a side drive

Same goes for a Win10 disc, it's useless. Make a bootable usb flash drive with the very latest Win 10 64bit iso so you would have the very latest os build/version should you need it's files for repair or for doing a clean install.

[UTFapolloMarine]

did you do a quick scan via windows for potential virus man? try that and see if it finds a few threats maybe is the problem? or an exception via firewall?

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Full scan with Windows Defender and MalwareBytes couldn't hurt.

But overall if you've been running Win10 since it was upgraded from Win7 or 8, it's time to just clean install Win10 64bit 1903, which should have been done long ago

Bios was updated (internet flash) to the latest bios on first set up. It's not that old a board (Z390-F) but as it supports 8th gen and 9th gen it may be older than I realise. (Apparently the board was released around Q3/4 of 2018)
However, the rst drivers are from the Intel website. At this point I think I have all support software from the web page. I could be wrong and it has been known to happen.
