W10: EsifAssist64 Has Stopped Working
Description:
Upon updating W10 to v1709, you will get an application that says “esif_assist_64.exe has stopped working”. Your cursor will then turn to “busy” every couple seconds indefinitely.
To Resolve:
-
(Win+R) Run => C:\windows\temp => Ctrl+A => Shift+Delete => Skip any in use.
-
If you didn’t understand that, it means delete everything from Windows\Temp except for files that are in use. Then click close program, it should go away.
NOTE: Sometimes I had to kill the process in the process manager “esif_something”, then I could delete c:\windows\temp\dptf\esif_assist_64.exe
