XPS 15-9570, SA installation not working

Running Windows 10 Home - Build 1903 18362.356

Support assist tried to update and hung.

Subsequent attempts were made to try to update but same problem existed.

Been through uninstalling and removing Support Assist from Software & Applications and its folders as detailed on other posts here.

Downloaded SA and tried fresh installation (run as administrator), the app hangs is unresponsive after it downloads the 2nd set of files.

Anyone got a clue how to resolve this?

* Connect the AC power adapter to the laptop
* Go here
* Download and install the latest versions for the files below in this order, restarting after each one =
BIOS 1130
Intel Chipset Device Software Driver 101175418066
Intel Management Engine Components 19141201255

SA should be download from here.

Did you try installing the SupportAssist Update Plugin, then SA?

Installed the BIOS 1130 - which I didn't have previously

The two sets of Intel drivers were already present, but I installed them again as requested.

Downloaded the SA from your link, executed it, does the same thing as before where it just hangs after the 2nd download process.

To rule out hardware, you should run the pre-Windows ePSA Diagnostics. If it passes, then we know that this SA issue is not a hardware fault, which points to the operating system itself. You could try #3 here.

ePSA diagnostics was fine.

 

Are you suggesting I reinstall Windows 10?

First make sure that windows is up to date with the latest updates. There is a new update for SA (version 3.3.3). So uninstall your current version and run CCleaner to fix registry errors and temp files. Restart your pc and download SA installer from here: https://downloads.dell.com/serviceability/catalog/SupportAssistInstaller.exe Run it as administrator and let it do is thing.

Didn't solve the issue I'm afraid, can't believe nobody has a solution for this.
