So I installed Windows 8.1 back on my Surface Pro 2, and got with the newly release firmware, and my experimental build of Surface Tweak Tool doesn't work anymore. Not because I put Windows 8.1, but that now the Intel Graphics Control Panel executable are gone. So now they didn't disable it...

Here is what I hate with Windows 10: -> Unable to hide drivers update. I don't mind Windows update (until they force include Bing tool bar and all that crap, cross my fingers they don't). The problem with drivers being forced installed is that it doesn't allow custom install, it includes and...

No issue on my side. Check your Internet Option panel settings and Edge web browser settings (not sure if they are linked)

That is exactly what Microsoft did with Windows 10. :)

Try an get the official charger (at worst you can see in returning it. if you buy it online at Microsoft Store, you should have free returns. Just make sure about that for your region before purchasing). This is what I know: -> RT charger can't provide sufficient power to the device to be both...

Disable UAC is not a solution.. but I guess it will do for now until July 29th. I would plan a system re-install after July 29.

I recall this happened to me... but I think it was under Windows 8. I think I just cleaned installed my system to fix it.

Yea I think a Windows update screwed the program up. Glad it is fixed!

I encountered this issue under Windows 10 and fixed it in the experimental build. Can you try it (http://www.nvgpupro.com/surfacetweaktoolexp/) an let me know if it opens fine?

Ok everyone, here is the page with the download of this experimental build presented above: http://www.nvgpupro.com/surfacetweaktoolexp/

Ah ok very good! :D You could have PMed me a while back about it or be a bit more specific in the edit message. I would have taken action earlier and not cause more work on your side by you guys going through every posts of mine to, essentially, clean up after me, especially that I didn't notice...

Well it seams that this forum doesn't allow links to the outside anymore. Which I find it funny, because I using my server to not use theirs... bandwidth is usually costly. But I guess they have incredible offer that they must force people to use theirs. Sure, Ok, more savings on my side! :)

Well they are small differences but they don't/shouldn't affect this tool. The only difference that it affects this tools is the different CPU (Core i3 and i7 models), but the underlying technology is the same, so the drivers should be the same or very close, and that should not affect the tool...

Both the SP2 and SP3 share the same specs. So while I don't have a SP3 to test, it should work. Please let me know. Feedback from you guys is what makes this tool better and better.

Here is a new version of Surface Tweak Tool for Windows 10 users (untested under Windows 8.1). This is not an official release, but rather an experimental build. This version contain the ability to enable the Intel Control Panel (where you can disable the dynamic contrast ratio on battery)...

Just to share something I have discovered. I don't know if this is a temporary decision or permanent from Intel. But if you get the latest Intel drivers from Windows Update, you have absolutely no control panel. All the files related to it are not there. What is also interesting, is that you...

Fantastic news people! I was able to enable the Intel Control Panel with the Surface Pro drivers :D (only tested under Windows 10 Build 10166). No driver file replaced or anything like that, just driver configuration changes. Need to finish implementing it, however. Expect a new version soon...

I'll see what I can do.

That would be a lot of work on my side. Not coding it, but testing to know where the points needs to be. I need to do many tests. That is why I can't make one for the Surface Pro 3 and Surface 3, sadly. As the Surface Pro 2 can't reach such resolution to even test anything. It is best to...

Auto-login should work. The only time it doesn't work, is if your account is joined to a domain. I can't speak speak for Enterprise edition of Windows, and if you decide to enable Ctrl+Alt+Delete key combo at logon, as I never tried those setups.
