    Did you try the clean uninstall first for everything? Make sure you find and delete the old folders because they remain on the drive after uninstalling, and have old setting in them. Then reboot. Install Fusion first, then reboot. Then install Trident. Sorry you're having those problems. I still don;t have Fusion working correctly. The brightness only goes down to about 50% of what it was before (you could lower it so the lights were barely lit). and, the brightness has a delay and gradually dims and brightens the LEDS, which is not normal.

    I still cannot get Trident's Music function to work, however. I looked in sound settings to make sure Trident was set to the music active on my rig, but still nothing. It's just dark thirty when on the music option.

    To tell you the truth, I'm done with RGB, and I'm no dunce when it comes to design lighting. I just can't justify all of the conflicts anymore. My next build will be really nice, coordinated, clean, but no RGB RAM, no RGB Fan, etc. That's not even dealing with horrible quality fans that look nice but are total garbage: HELLO COOLER MASTER MF series junk fans that have a practical MTTF of about 40 hours.

    Thanks, I don't really want to uninstall and reinstall and all that again, I'm happy I got the main colors I want for now and no other issues, I know if I do a reinstall of fusion I'll probably get issues with the LED on my Aorus cooler which plays up when fiddled, I'm with you with RGB, next build is going to be solid no issues like this maybe only some LED fans and a strip that is about it, I'm over these RGB issues, such a headache!!!

    I figured out why Trident stopped working. In order to get Fusion to release the RAM lighting, you have to delete/rename two files in the Fusion directory: C:/programfiles(x86)/Gigabyte

    spddump.exe
    SPD_DUMP.XML

    However, if you turn the RAM off in fusion and THEN rename those files, nothing turns them back on, not even Trident. Just make sure that in fusion, the RAM is on any setting except off before you rename those files.

    Now everything works as it should again.

    Are you saying that works on Gigabyte boards? I'm in the Gigabyte ecosystem - lol. Also, Fusion will turn on and change color of RAM, when it works properly, but it has never allowed teh brightness control to work. It's just change color, WFO for the ram.

    it worked for awhile but yesterday when the software loaded it went back to default orange for some reason, I ended up uninstalling it and all other asus related rgb software and also the trident software and just left my Fusion software and I was able to set the color using the aorus software but still would only set it when windows started up, the asus software must of updated some .sys file or something cos now my aorus software detects the memory when before when I did the upgrade to 22H2 it did not detect it anymore, anyways give it a try hopefully u can get it to set a static color or multi static color…

    Just wanted to get your attention for what i wrote above, works for static color setting using the Aura Sync software, just set the static color u want and shut down computer and turn on, when restarted it will set the color you selected, you can set it to any static color but have to shut down completly and turn on to make it set it to that color, also when you install the Aura Sync software make sure it is updated as when I first installed it, it was not updated till i restarted a couple of times then it finally detected my ram and I was able to set the color

    Yeah, getting pretty sick of full whatever pattern it is, and it's not the default pattern for some reason.

    Update after fiddling with the Aura Sync software (Armoury crate) it finally detected the memory on my aorus board and I set the color to (Static) blue it took a restart to get it to set the color as just setting it different didnt work but now I finally have something different to the annoying rainbow colors it was using, still cant change it though by just setting a different color or using the Trident Software, really hope there is a proper fix soon so I can use the effect and stuff again...

    Nothing so far, maybe cos it’s the weekend there has been no updates on here or Microsoft support, guess we can only wait, have not seen anything anywhere on some sort of fix…

    ok I looked around abit and my memory integrity was off being caused by ene.sys not loading, I believe due to its certificate expiring, I fixed it by getting it updated installing MSI Centre then mystic lighting app which updated the main system one for ene.sys and now that error has gone away, but I believe a similar driver is used to control the LED on the Trident memory since there is an install app for "ENE_DRAM_RGB_AIO" located in the Trident Z Lighting control/Aac directory so maybe its a similar issue for the certificate since the windows update, I hope one of the guys at G.Skill can confirm this and find a fix or update for it to fix the issue...

    It was working fine, and so was Fusion until I updated my main rig. It was down for about a month. Before I updated anything , since I was swapping everything into a new case, I plugged in all in to test it on my bench, and all of the lighting worked like it did before. After updating to 22h2, Zed!

    When installed, Fusion still works, but the brightness level is completely out of calibration. When setting it to the lowest brightness setting, it's still about 50% on.
    I had issues with Aorus Fusion also after the update to do with my LED on my 360 cpu cooler but lucky they had an update to fix the display just as the 22H2 update come out only thing is now my cpu displays the wrong type on it, this morning I also got a issue through windows security that my memory integrity is off so there is definitely an issue with the 22H2 update and communication with the memory…

Since the update so far that came out 2 days ago 2 others have had the same issue, one with an asus motherboard and one with a gigabyte, I myself have an Aorus master z490 board, so it seems like it’s windows related causing the issue between the software not being able to adjust the color settings on the memory…
