1. MyASUS app keep bothering me wants me to update something everytime I boot my laptop
2. I need myASUS app so I can set my battery max health/lifespan mode, upon uninstalling it reverts back to asus default battery plan which increases wear level of my battery as shown in hwinfo, laptop is barely 3 months old, it is already 4.3%. Laptop orange light indicates charhing when plugged into wall, laptop consumes charge when turned off also when plugged in. Lights indicates that
3. When I use myasus app, max lifespan mode protects battery health as far as I see in status lights by not charging everytime. Uninstalling myasus app reverts that, which damages battery
4. Armory Crate doesnt work properly even when installed cleanly, Manual fan curve cannot be set and/or it conflict with windows power plans. I don'want to remove my custom made power plans just to make it work asus software. I want to use both in same time.
5. Armory Crate did suddenly increases everything during manual fan curve status, both voltage and temps rises in seconds. Same in BIOS as well, cannot take a look into my BIOS settings because laptop cooks itself to the death when I inside of the BIOS.
6. Armoury Crate "slient" power plan does the same, both voltage,temps magically doubles in seconds so there is no time to set things right cuz laptop literally nearly fries itself if I dont switch back to "windows" template which corrects the errors I mentioned then everything went back to normal in seconds
7. This is a asus zep g15 rog ga503rm, fans starts spinning at 60c, both gpu and cpu, I guess thats normal, because there is no way to control ny fans on this cursed laptop. Dont want to use fancontrol as it modifies control settings
8. I need myasus so I can contro battery but updates keep makes things worse I dont even know what or which update is these, I do NOT want to update anything. I turned off essential updates from myasus app settings, did not do any difference.

Is this laptop cursed somehow? Why I'm having these strange problems after paying like a fortune? Can anyone help?
 
Okay so I turned off driver updates and delayed the feature updates and reinstalled the myasus app from ms store, I think that did a somekind clean install because I also did clean cache command via powershell. Thank god gpedit.msc! It seems there is a self repair feature as well in myasus app, I did ran a fan check and my room echoed with 6500RPM but results says 0 problems so thats good.

UPDATE: It also no longer asks me to download update, I think I downloaded updated version in package,
 
only if that problem would persist:

Right click on start menu> Task Manager>Autostart and unclick everything, Yes EVERYTHING (including "myAsus".

you don't need "myAsus" at all. by doing above you are only disabling this program(not uninstalling).

Are you actually using that battery at all or is your laptop almost always plugged in?
otherwise you would suffer with "myAsus" (bloatware) and after 3 years your battery would be maybe 10% better off. so not worth the hassle and pain using this battery care.

Thanks alot, can you also point to the correct direction: which space laptop ssd stays in the laptop? Is it right under the keyboard or around the touchpad? So far I discovered the CPU is right under the screen at middle. I need to learn ssd space where is it located so I can put proper cooling with my cooling pad under the laptop.

as for myasus thing, I ran checks with the software to see my laptop running okay or not, it seems okay ssd,fan,battery everything is okay so far.

Only thing is bothering me now is the SSD ASIC controller gets quite hot, its around 55c-60c when idle, and around 68c-70c when gaming, I guess cooling pad can help with that a little, it is the only choice I have right now as I cannot get into repair shop at the moment nor buy a cooling.
 
Cooling pads are entirely useless, they reduce 1-5'C if you are lucky.

"55c-60c when idle, and around 68c-70c when gamin" -entirely normal

my best advise is: if you never use the battery(your laptop is plugged all the time) you don't need any myAsus neither any other battery app so you can uninstall all Asus bloatware and leave clean windows (remove all apps from autostart).
By uninstalling all bloatware you will also reduce useless updates.
 
I downloaded WD official tool to monitor my laptops SSD health, because it is a WD brand. I did extended SMART test it came out without issues and tool shows only two sensors inside the SSD, one of the 58c, the other 43c. HWinfo shows 3 sensors, one of them ASIC controller reaching to 70c almost most of the time. That ASIC controller sensor isnt there on WD software.

Should I trust WD software or HWinfo?
