I'm trying to update some drivers through MSI Center. But everytime I try to open it I get the following message:

83549634587e3401940f0b0e7876ca96.png

I've tried pretty much everything including removing my firewall and antivirus, although I'm pretty sure that isn't the issue, because MSI Center ran fine before, and my firewall has an exception rule for MSI Center enabled. I tried removing my VPN and reïnstalling MSI Center. I've also tried running it as admin. But I get the same error message every time.
I really need some help, because I can't finish installing my drivers right now. Thanks.

try this.
1. Uninstall MSI Center and MSI Center SDK
2. Restart
3. Delete all MSI Files under C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI\ & %programdata% as well as %appdata%.
4. Run CleanCenterMaster (from here: https://download.msi.com/uti_exe/nb/CleanCenterMaster.zip) - this will restart.
5. Run CMD as Admin => enter sfc /scannnow and let this complete.
6. Restart
7. Now install MSI Center via MS Store

I'm also getting the same error. I tried this solution exactly like you laid it out and unfortunately it did not fix the issue for me. One thing I notice is when it's trying to install MSI Center, a service called "MSI_VoiceControl_Service" gets stuck trying to start up and never runs. I'm thinking that has something to do with the issue but I don't what to do to fix it. I've tried manually stopping the service and restarting it back up but it does not let you stop the service either. It just gets stuck at "Starting".

Could I have your system spec please?

can you find Voice Control under C:\Program Files (x86)\MSI\MSI Center? there's an uninstall app in the folder
 
Im also getting the same error, I tried the exact solution as well, it did not work. Win11, Z790 Edge WIFI with fresh BIOS. MSI 2.0.32.0 just will not install, seems like I've tried everything.

Seems like this just fell off the planet, did you ever figure out how to fix this??? I've been working fine until this week, did an update on MSI Center and now, nothing works.
 
I'm having the same issue, i followed all the steps above, nothing, same error....use to work on only MSI mobo, now I upgraded to 650 tomahawk doesnt work

Make sure Windows is up to date. I put in a ticket with MSI and they said to update windows. I didn’t get notified of any updates but when I did a “windows update” there was an update pending. I ran the update and it fixed everything.
 
I found a solution and it worked for me. after 3 days,The problem was in the service (NetLimiter 4Service)
i try all solution Nothing worked for me.
first i open "system configuration" and go Tab" Services" and checkbox "hide all Microsoft Services " and Disable ALL
after that restart and install program. After trying to disable and enable services, I found out that this service is the cause.(NetLimiter 4Service)
advice. use CleanCenterMaster for clean old program. Make sure the internet is connected I think

What fixed this issue for me was going into system configuration and then the services tab and enabling the msi_case_Service and msi center service you can also select the tab to hide Microsoft services to make it easier to find hope that helps!

I solved that problem with command sfc /scannow like admin and then I updated GPU drivers and it works...
Key Details for Using sfc /scannow:
Run as Admin:
It must be executed in an elevated Command Prompt or Windows Terminal.
Process:The scan verifies all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions
Results:
No integrity violations: System is healthy.
Found and repaired: Corruption was detected and fixed.
Found but could not fix: Further action (like DISM) is required.
DISM: For better results, run DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth before sfc /scannow to fix the component store.
Alternative Commands: Use sfc /verifyonly to scan without repairing or sfc /scanfile to fix a specific file.
When to Use: Use when experiencing system crashes, freezing, or errors indicating missing/broken files.
