E5-571G hotkeys animations
So, after having some problems with acer drivers for windows 8.1, i installed windows 7, and, what a big surprise, everything works, even touchpad, which has wrong drivers in acer site for windows 8.1, but for windows 7, touchpad driver works. Well, almost everything. There still is some work to do and some fog to be cleared. The problem is hotkeys - they work, but half of animations doesnt exist :
1) animations that exist : touchpad on/off, capslock on/off, wifi hotkey brings separate menu;
2) missing animations : screen brightness, volume up/down, volume mute.
I looked in acer launch manager files, and there is no more animation files, why ? Are acers wonderful artists still working on making those superior animations ? Or maybe acer just fired all their IT stuff ? Or maybe they are not so smart to know, that such thing also must be included ? Maybe i could help them ? But seriously, why are those animations missing ?

Hi all,
I encounter the same same issue and it does not seem to be solved yet. I installed a fresh copy of Windows 7 Pro on my E5-571G and installed all drivers from Acer website as well as newest available Acer Launch Manager, that is version 7.00.3005, dated as 2014/10/24. As stated by OP, that version does not include:
- brightness slider/indicator
- volume slider/indicator
All other indicators such as CapsLock, NumLock, Touchpad On/Off are working perfectly fine.
From what I have inspected, the installation files for version 7.00.3005 are missing animation files for either V7_x86 and V7_x64 subpackages:
CapsLock_Off_120
CapsLock_Off_144
