Intel graphics control panel is missing?
Hello, one day I pressed "close" for the intel graphics control panel in the system tray and it has been gone ever since, no signs of it anywhere in my computer. I tried re-installing the graphics driver from Dell's site and nothing, is it intentionally gone? I have a Dell Inspiron 13 5379 2-in-1.
No Events found!

If your right-click in an empty area of your desktop background, do you see a way to get to it there? If so, click Intel Graphics Settings > Options & support > Preferences and set the Tray Icon option to Enable. If you don't see it even there, then try completely uninstalling the Intel Graphics drivers before reinstalling the version from Dell's site. Otherwise, it's possible that Windows Update has pushed a newer version of that driver that somehow doesn't surface the Graphics Settings applet. I remember having that issue on my XPS 15 9530 where the driver Microsoft provided wasn't fully functional for some of the systems it was getting pushed to. I ended up disabling driver delivery via Windows Update (only possible with Pro versions of Windows).

Hi,
I am using a dell XPS 15 9570 with windows 10 1809 update. I still cant find the intel graphics control panel. I even tried installing the app from Windows store and even that can't open. I don't know whats wrong with it.
Any help here is very much appreciated.
