Description: Asus Optimization Startup Tool & AsusHotkeyExec.exe Windows alert at every boot-up
Model: X571
Frequency of Occurrence: Always
Reset OS: Yes

Hi there, after every reboot of Windows I am getting 2 alerts about programs making changes to my computer: #1: ASUS Optimization Startup Task #2: AsusHotkeyExec.exe It seems that it does not even matter if I click yes or no, the system and the hotkeys are working fine either way. But how do I get rid of those two alerts every time? Using Windows 10 Pro, fresh clean install with all updates and latest drivers from asus.com

I uninstalled using Windows device manager and let it delete the drivers

then unpacked with TotalCommander,

re installed with Poweshell Administrator worked for me!!

Treiber mittels Gerätemanager deinstalliert (unter Reiter Systemgeräte \ ASUS System Control Interface) und den Haken bei Treiber löschen gesetzt.

Mit Total Commander entpackt.

Via Powershell mit Administratorfreigabe installiert.

Problem gelöst

Uninstalled the driver for "ASUS System Control Interface V2"
Rebooted machine
Unzipped the "AsusSystemControlInterfaceV2_2.2.20.0"
Started Powershell as Administrator
Executed Install.bat
Rebooted machine
Problem persists - still getting the popups for "Asus optimization startup task" and "AsusHotkeyExec"
What next?

OK, missed the important part about not using the Windows built-in extract tool. Tried same procedure but unzipping with Win-RAR. Now it works as intended and the pop-ups are history.

Asus vivo book charging related query.
Can I continue to charge the laptop irrespective of its battery status??
Can I keep charging even when the battery is full charged %??
