15 R3, AWCC, TactX, errors
Good day,
I recently replaced my HDD with a SSD on this out of warranty 2017 15 R3. I decided to do a clean install of everything as recommended by the Dell support site. That being said, everything seems to work correctly, but when I turn on the laptop, I get the error message from AWCC (Alienware Command Center) :
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
at AlienLabs.Keypad.Domain.Classes.ProfileManagerHolderClass.get_IndependentKeys()

As well as a different error when I actually open the Alienware TactX through the AWCC:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

I should add that the AlienFX, AlienFusion, and the AlienAdrenaline all appear to run appropriately.
I had found another guide recommending a BIOS update, followed by a power dump, and then uninstalling/reinstalling Command Center, but the results are the same.
Any ideas?
Thank you!
