Re: Intel Control Panel Download
Denna Repaci
Ok, so I found something interesting, I uninstalled the driver, rebooted my laptop and when it started up, I checked if it has been succesfully uninstalled, and a driver .4444 was installed, I checked the desktop and right clicked, and finally there was the graphics panel shortcut and it opened, it wasn't detecting the rare monitors, but after a minute, my screen went black and also it made the sound when you connect something (USB, external monitor,etc) and the problem returned.
There was the 4 Generic monitors in the device manager, the shortcut in the right click menu disappeared and the more interesting thing is that I checked for the driver installed and magically there was the .4531 installed.......
So righ now I'm using the driver .4444, this is the only driver that is stable and works, so I will stay with this driver until Lenovo,Microsoft or Intel fix this problem with an update or a new driver version.
*EDIT* I think I finally found the problem. The problem is caused when the virtualization is enabled from the BIOS settings, so now that is disabled everything works fine just like before, with the driver .4531, but now I can't use my virtual machine with 64 bits, it's the only inconvenient.
We have a suggestion that was reported as a fix for this issue, find it below. Since you already tried the latest version from our end and the latest from your computer manufacturer, the next step is to try with this suggestion.
"Find the shortcut you're using to open the Intel Graphics Control Panel... Right-click on it and choose "Open file location." That will take you to the shortcut file, or possibly the Control Panel .exe file itself. If you get to the file itself, stop here and skip to the next step. If all you see is the shortcut, right-click again and choose "Open file location" a second time. You should now be in a folder something like:
And you should see that a file called: GfxUIEx.exe is highlighted. That's the control panel you're trying to open. On my laptop, I also saw a file right next to it called Gfxv2_0.exe. Just out of curiosity, I double-clicked that file, and magically, the Intel Graphics Control Panel finally showed up again!!!"
I really don't think that the Panel itself must be the problem, I think it's just a consequence of the problem because my laptop somehow is recognizing 4 Generic Non-Pnp Monitor, and when I connect my external monitor, in the device manager, it appears like another PnP monitor, but doesn't send any signal to my external monitor. That's why I think that the fact that the graphics panel doesn't open isn't the main problem, something wrong happened after the microsoft update....
At this stage, you pretty much found one of the subjects that we are currently investigating. We have several reports of virtualization related to this issue, I do not have an update on the investigation but we are definitely working on finding the solution. I will keep you updated as soon as I have more information.
Two weeks ago the Intel and Nvidia Graphic Cards Control Panels stopped working and I could not open my MEmu android emulator, or play games.] I decided to format my laptop and re install Windows 10 to see if the problem will be solved.
The problem appeared again when I installed my last remaining driver - the Anker 3.0 usb docking station displaylink driver. When I installed the drivers found in the Anker Website both graphic cards stopped working like before. I uninstalled it and the graphic cards started working again.
I installed two versions of the driver found in the Displaylink website - one dated 25th October and the latest version of the 18th December and the problem reappeared. When I uninstalled/deleted the drivers both graphic cards and their respective Control Panels began working again.
I _was_ using the microsoft x.4474 version on on a HD 4600 with external monitors, HDMI, and hyper-v (which had been a roll-back, so common upgrades didn't alter it) until I did a clean install a few days ago. Then, a s you well know, all hell broke loose with the graphics setup. Now its a choice, manually install the old version and hope that whatever else changed isn't really the problem, or wait for this new version. A beta/test would go a long way towards making the decision easier. Thanks.
Is there any update on this issue? this issue is not just when Vt-x enabled in bios, external display won't work. this issue can also happened in a reversed way. I mostly connect to only external display when using my laptop with 5200 graphic and need hyper-V for work related stuff. my laptop was stuck in external display only mode.
Now I have reverted 15.4444 driver (just keep uninstall the newer version, I had to revert from March 2017 then Sept 2016 until the April 2016 15.4444 version appear) and use Group policy to prevent any further driver installation with the Graphic Hardware ID, then finally the 15.4444 driver is stick. But come on Intel, this issue happens from 2016 Sept driver until now without a fix?

Since the new update of my graphics driver(26.20.100.7263) The control panel is nowhere to be found. Intel says I should download the app in the Microsoft store and I did, but it says an old version has been installed so I can't open. When I checked the Intel's Graphics driver update website it says the latest version for my igpu is lower than my current version. Any help would be nice.
Hi I did your instructions. It worked but windows update keeps downloading the 26.20.100.7263 when I use it. Even tried to stop driver installations from web on Advance settings. Microsoft seems to force me to the "7623" update of Intel Graphics.
As a general rule, when I want to update my graphics drivers, I prefer to start my search at and from there go to my CPU's page, where there's a link to relevant drivers. So I chose a 10th gen Core i7, there was a link to graphics drivers, however there was a warning on top of the page, about a more recent version including security patches. That's where I got this link.
It's possible that Windows update forces that thing on you as part of a hotfix because it's considered security-critical, and maybe the driver has still some rough edges because it has been hastily published to fix security issues and some values still incorrectly refer to an older version. In which case, maybe that 7323 version may help... or not. I don't know for sure, but try from ARK and navigate to your iGPU drivers from your CPU's page, if I may advise.
The drivers finally has reached the download center front page, which was not the case yesterday, that's why I felt the need to post it here since I was thinking the change may pertain to some CPUs only.
i had optimized my graphics on the intel HD graphics control panel earlier on when i got my laptop but now when i tried to optimize my graphics again i opened the control panel and it appeared to be initializing but it soon disappeared and did not open the control pane; and when i try open it from the start menu or from a folder a message is displayed stating that GfxUI.exe is missing HELP ME PLEASE! im running windows 8.1 with intel core i5 on a Samsung ATIV Book 2!!
I think at some point, I had the laptop connected to a TV via HDMI, and opened the Intel Graphics control panel on that screen. After I disconnected from that TV, the Intel Graphics Control Panel would open up, but be completely invisible and inaccessible.
Your solution WORKED! I've been having the same problem after refreshing my PC, and I was going crazy looking for a solution. I can confirm that your solution worked (at least for me.) Thank you for sharing your knowledge!
I contacted nvidia and they said if the nvvsvc.exe service was diasbled then it would make the control panel stop working. But it just seems you can access the control panel for nvidia with nvcplui.exe
In this case if you are ussing a dedicated graphic card (Nvidia) the system ellectronically disables the Intel graphics from the processor. Depends form your system you can disable the onboard graphics ( Intel) form BIOS or from the startup options you can desable it to start.
