SupportAssist Update Won't Allow Updates Saying "Remote Desktop Connection" is in Use.

In attempting to do an update using version 3.10.3.3 on a Windows 11 machine, SupportAssist states that I have two updates to do, but won't let me install them because of this error message:

"You can't install updates using a Remote Desktop Connection"

I am not remoted it, nor am I running this from a Virtual on the machine.

Follow-up told me to install/reinstall

 

1) Install Dell SupportAssist OS Recovery Plugin : http://del.ly/6601JuHsD 
2) Uninstall SupportAssist
3) Reinstall SupportAssist http://del.ly/6602JuHsE 

Upon doing that I got the update page and was allowed to update.

After replying to the DM, the response was

"There seems to be some conflict. We suggest you to install both the drivers manually..."

I am not concerned with the updates but SupportAssist working on my system.
