I might have multiple issues going on but can't figure out what might be causing my issue preventing me from installing Predator Sense. I had to send in my Acer Predator Triton 300 PT315-52 for repair unfortunately when I received the laptop back and tried to reinstall  my backup image (Acer original install) it was corrupt. I then decided to install a fresh copy of windows 10 by using the Windows 10 media creation tool and USB thumb drive. Everything so far has installed and worked fine even every other driver I have downloaded from Acer except for installing Predator Sense which I downloaded from Acer driver downloads web page using the laptop SNID #. Searching the web it seems it may be from the motherboard not flashed with the correct bios at the repair center. Though I'm wondering if it could also be that it might be due that I didn't install the Acer version of windows for this laptop. Anybody out there running predator Sense on a Predator laptop with none-Acer Windows copy installed?

    I tried following your suggestion though I believe it does not work due to not running the Acer "flavor" of Windows 10. As I stated earlier I'm running the standard Windows 10 version from Microsoft through their media creation tool it does not have any of the Acer modifications (I assume).
