Causa

Service is stopped or not available.

Resolución

  1. Keep your personal computer up to date with the latest SupportAssist version. See system requirements.
  2. Ensure you are logged in as Administrator.
  3. Open Task Manager, switch to the Services tab and check if 'SupportAssistAgent' and 'DellClientManagementService' services are in 'Running' status. Both of these services should be in running status for the driver scan to work.
    If the system has been powered-on or restarted, please wait for at-least 5 minutes before revisiting the support website to Check for Updates.
    This allows for the two services to be fully running to allow driver scan functionality. After waiting for 5 minutes, if status still shows as 'Stopped' for any or both services, right-click and choose 'Start'.
    If both the services are showing as 'Running', go to step 3.

  7. Ensure that a Firewall or anti-virus application is not blocking the SupportAssist application.

SupportAssist Application > Settings >Automate scans and optimizations > Update drivers and software: Weekly Check for updates in real time by setting the scan to run immediately.

    1. On Windows 10: Go to Start > Settings > Apps, search for "Dell SupportAssist" under 'Apps & features', select and click Uninstall.
