[SOLVED] Cannot delete Gigabyte Command Center

[Geoff Leven]

So I stupidly installed this crappy Gigabyte Command Center software and now for the life of me I cannot delete it permanently. Every time I boot up my PC this process starts itself (this is even on a brand new install of W11). There are 2 .exe files located in:

"C:\Windows\System32"
GigabyteDownloadAssistant.exe
GigabyteUpdateService.exe

I can stop the processes in the task manager and then delete the 2 .exe files but as soon as I restart the PC the .exe files are back again. First I thought they might have been coming back via OneDrive, which I don't use at all but might have been set up by default during the previous W11 install and I did see some gigabyte files in my OneDrive profile - don't know how they got there I never use OneDrive. But I deleted everything from OneDrive but this Gigabyte CC is still manifesting. It's driving me nuts. Any Ideas?

those two is just part of the software.
did you uninstall everything from Gigabyte ?

I fixed it. Of all places there is a BIOS setting that I can turn off. Unbelievable that Gigabyte has a hidden setting like this, Has really put me off ever getting Gigabyte again.
