So I accidentally installed this poor Gigabyte Command Center software and now, for the hundredth time, I can't remove it completely. Every time I turn on my PC, this thing starts up again (even after a fresh W11 setup). There are two .exe files in:
"C:\Windows\System32"
GigabyteDownloadAssistant.exe
GigabyteUpdateService.exe
I can close the processes in Task Manager and delete those two files, but once I restart the PC they come back right away. At first I thought they might be coming back through OneDrive, which I don't use at all, though it's possible they were set up during my previous W11 installation. I did notice some Gigabyte files in my OneDrive profile—don't know how they ended up there since I never use OneDrive. But after deleting everything from OneDrive, this Gigabyte CC still shows up. It's really frustrating. Any suggestions?

those two are only part of the software.
Did you remove all of Gigabyte's files?

I fixed it. Of all places there is a BIOS setting that I can turn off. Unbelievable that Gigabyte has a hidden setting like this, Has really put me off ever getting Gigabyte again.
