    If you're having trouble installing the Killer Intelligence Center from the Microsoft Store, here are some alternative methods and troubleshooting steps you can try:

    Alternative Installation Method

    1. Download the Appx Package: You can manually download the latest version of the Killer Control Center from a trusted source or the official website. Look for the highest version number available.
    2. Use PowerShell: After downloading the Appx package, you can install it using PowerShell:
      • Open PowerShell as an administrator and copy paste below command.
      • Add-AppxPackage -Path "C:\Path\To\Your\Downloaded\Appx"
      • Make sure to replace the path with the actual location of the downloaded file.
    3. Run the Executable: After installation, navigate to C:\Program Files\WindowsApps and find the executable file within the RivetNetworks folder to launch the application.

    1) That Killer Control Center is bloatware for the Ethernet driver. Do you use Ethernet or Wireless? If you don't use Ethernet then you don't need it and can uninstall it in Settings > Apps > Apps & Features. Even if you use Ethernet you don't need it unless you use special settings it offers. This is explained more here so you can decide:-

    2) Essentially here is how to handle your drivers:

    Expedite all Windows Updates from Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for Updates . Install all including Optional, watch for prompt for Restart, then go back to check again until no more are offered.

    3) Then install your manufacturer's drivers from the Acer Support Downloads webpage for your exact model here: https://www.acer.com/us-en/support/drivers-and-....
