Hi, I have an Asus Proart Studiobook Laptop with Windows 11 on it.
Until recently it was all fine, and I think after a recent update to one of the ASUS apps called Dial and Control Panel, it now opens every time I restart.
The laptop has a dial which can be used to scroll, or adjust zoom or sound volume, or basically what ever you want it to do in each app.
The app never used to open on boot until now, as there is no need for the app to open.
The app its self doesn't have an option within it to start on boot, the app isn't listed in my startup apps.
And the strange thing is, I am finding when I restart, if i just leave the laptop nothing happens, until i make one move with the mouse, then the Dial and Control Panel app opens up. Its a bit odd.
I was going to set the service to manual start, but then that's a bit annoying as the dial is supposed to just work with each app automatically, and if I set the service to manual start, it doesn't work until I open the app, but that's not the way its supposed to act, the app has always just started in the background until recently.
I wondered if theres a way for me to monitor how and what is triggering the app to open, especially given the odd behavior that the Dial software doesn't seem to start until I move the mouse when i restart.
Any help would be great
