Intel turbo boost bloatware

[FlyingScotsman]

How do you disable the software for the intel turbo boost technology 3.0?
I have tried removing it manually and disabling it in device manager, but it keeps enabling itself again.

its a pain in the arse. its got a bios setting which enables it then drivers which give you an error message when it has been disabled. uninstalling doesnt seem to work as its back by next reboot.

i just deleted the folders.

Its really annoying when after a reboot its back, what is the bios setting? Is it the turbo enabled one?

funny thing is i never managed to narrow it down. just when i have my overclock in place its gone. (and gives the error about no hardware detected or such) maybe the overclock profile (by specific core, sync all cores etc) unsure :/

Yeah deleting the folder has stopped the application running now, seems to be ok after a few re-boots. Cheers James2k

Go back to Windows 8 oh wait you can't. Microsoft need to make automatic driver installation in Windows 10 optional it's just annoying to anyone who knows what they're doing.

nothing to do with that, even with the hardware feature disabled it wont uninstall properly. i'm blaming intel

This software is so annoying. Every time I reboot the pc it opens up as a window on my desktop.

Delete the folder as James suggested, it stops it running with no issues.

Thanks for the heads up, I missed that post. I have deleted the folder and rebooted a few times and no intel boost crap popping up on my desktop. I owe you both a beer, thanks.

What is this software? I've used an 3570k and now on an 8600k and have never come across this.

It was software/hardware released with Broadwell-E, was a good idea in theory but half baked in its implementation. You can read about it here :- https://www.anandtech.com/show/1033...6900k-6850k-and-6800k-tested-up-to-10-cores/2
