Area-51m R?, AWCC, Windows 11

Hello, 

Any news on AWCC (Alienware Command Center) for Windows 11? It has received update, but I want to make sure laptop is driver ready before I click install?

    What Windows 11 update?  Its not to be released until Oct 5.

    There are Windows Insider pre-releases (beta versions) but they are not the final that will be released on Oct 5.

    I have the Windows Insider version installed on my desktop and although not an Alienware, no special Win 11 drivers were needed.

    "It has received update"
    What has received update? Be specific.

    The Area-51m R1/R2 pages do not show any Windows 11 drivers. They both list AWCC 5.3.2.0, 6/17/21, Windows 10.

    I wouldn't recommend installing Windows 11 on your Computer because if its not certified for windows 11 it would be mostly unstable. I recommend if you wanna keep using it on windows 11 go into the BIOS and enable FAN PREFORMANCE MODE to ON.

    That should keep it cool until they release a command center for 11 but I cant confirm they will or will not.

    NOTE: It will make the fans spin at maximum speed 24/7.

    Quick Tip: If your laptop has voltage / charging issues, try shutting it down, unplugging power from laptop, hold power button down for 30 seconds to do a full reset!

    The Area-51m R1 driver page still does not show Windows 11. Still shows AWCC 5.3.2.0 for Windows 10.

    The Area-51m R2 driver page does show Windows 11 but no AWCC.

    HI chris,

    After Windows 11 upgradation, AWCC in my dell G15 5511 laptop not working properly. Especially, game shift option is not working and temp control/monitoring option is not functioning as well. So plz do the needful.
