Any thoughts?

Hi Olli and Tom, any updates on this, still showing as insecure, even though there has been a couple of updates since I posted this. Currently at 22.180.11.1.

Thanks

@Tom This app is marked as Insecure with a CVSS Score of 6.5.
So, is there an update available that I should install (the link at the download icon)?

The driver file is present, so in that sense the software is there. But it appears that the driver also is bundled with other software from Intel.

I can also see that there is a new version, that will be added soon.

However, there are some issues with the accuracy of this, that is also why it is released as "Testing".

It should be clear in the UI of Personal edition with a black "Testing" pill. In the Personal we default to show these "Testing" apps, in order to get this kind of feedback.

However, in the Corporate, it isn't visible for ordinary accounts, except for Olli, and for our internal test accounts. The issue here, is that you can't see that it is "Testing" in the Corporate UI, so you may be led to believe that it is fully supported. Since Olli is the only external person who can see "Testing" in Corporate, we won't change that any time soon.

This detection will remain as "Testing", while we await a new backend feature, which should aid us in tracking this in a proper and reliable manner.

Here is version 22.200.2 available.

When I start the Windows 11 settings and go to Installed Apps, then I do not see this "App":

When I go to the old control panel, I see only:

@Tom Please provide feedback!
