Thermal Controller System.TypeInitializationException

I currently have a Alienware Aurora R6 and I keep getting the following error:

System.TypeInitializationException: The type initializer for 'AlienLabs.ThermalControls.Controller.Classes.ThermalControlsTaskbarIcon' threw an exception. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Call was canceled by the message filter.

   at System.Windows.Threading.ExceptionWrapper.TryCatchWhen(Object source, Delegate callback, Object args, Int32 numArgs, Delegate catchHandler)

I've uninstalled (using instruction from How to Remove and Reinstall the Alienware Command Center | Dell US) and reinstalled, but the issue persists.

I even created a new profile, but this did not resolve the issue.

Any help would be appreciated.

    What version of AW-CC are you trying to install?

     

    I hope you did NOT install Windows-10 Creators Update already ... did you?

    This was all before the Creators Update.

    I recently updated it thinking this may fix the issue (wishful thinking, as it doesn't make much sense if it did).

    It might have been fixable before, but now that you have installed Creators Update ... not much chance until they compile and upload an updated "Creators Compatible" versions of AW-CC.

     

    See recent posted reports.

    I don't have Creators Update on my Aurora-R6, and I think I will set it to "defer updates" for now.
