Aurora R9, AWCC update killed AlienFX

I bought a very nice, top of the line Aurora R9 a couple of months ago and all had been perfect. Then on 30 May 2020, AWCC Application did an automatic update and no more AlienFX. It says there are no AlienFX devices connected.

I uninstalled following Dells instructions to a tee, reinstalled, same problem. Tried installing the version of AWCC that worked, it auto updated immediately and same problem. 

The only thing that changed on the computer was the auto update of AWCC so I suppose I just have to wait for the next update for this to be fixed. 

Funny, the Fusion part of AWCC works fine; I would have thought the overclocking program to be much more complicated than changing the color of lights. I just miss having no control over the color of the lighting on the R9, my Alienware monitor and Alienware mouse.  Actually, the mouse and monitor stayed the color I had chosen, only the R9 is the default blue.

I know this issue has occurred in the past, but I haven't read about problems with the 30 May 2020 update.
