I was having some issues with Unreal crashing. I was also having issues with Windows Updates failing to install.
Look in the taskbar for the Green Nvidia icon, a right click gives you 2 options:
Use Nvidia App to download & install Nvidia Studio drivers – not the Game ready ones
Then use the Nvidia App turn off the NVIDIA overlay…
R-click the Nvidia icon in taskbar to open the Nvidia Control Panel and under Manage 3D settings /Power Management set Prefer Maximum Performance
Search for and run the Alienware Command Centre, look for and turn off the Alienware Command Centre Overlay– this is the little onscreen tab in the left side that has dials in it. This app also allows you to make the Alienware have pretty colours on its lighting.
Once again on taskbar, use the Intel Driver & Support Assistant to update all drivers..
