I'm not trying to defend MSI Center or say it's actually a good product, lol. Just that the concept/layout COULD be useful if they'd get it stable. Of course I don't install anything in MSI Center I don't need/want, and I uninstall features that flop. I just give it a try when I see an update & hope for the best.
Dragon Center was in same situation not so long ago (unstable/problematic and heavier than necessary - thus, the dislike for it) - and yet, now - seems to be good enough (or at least far better and more stable than MSI Center).
Dragon Center was never really stable for me, even though MSI Center isn't really a whole lot better. There's definitely no going back to DC here. It's not usable at all on this MB nowadays.
I mostly use the monitoring stuff, and that's where the bulk of problems lie. Why doesn't anyone make an all-in-one app that's easy to navigate and just works? I don't want to spend more time tweaking/searching for stuff than actually using my PC. I really wish MSI Companion would run on my system, but in the 2.5 years I've had this board, it's NEVER worked. It'd be sooo nice to have an OSD that actually monitors everything with adjustable transparency, click-through, and a clean interface. And doesn't take an hour to configure... (and not expensive)... The default Performance module in Game Bar would be great if they'd add temperature sensors. Afterburner is
normally stable (ugly AF though), but when you're in a hurry, you just end up fumbling around forever trying to configure it. Riva Tuner can be a PITA when it conflicts with something too... and on, and on...
User Scenario has a good layout. Surprise... It failed too. It worked great for a while, but enough's enough with that one. I don't want to have to constantly boot to BIOS to make fan changes etc. I've yet to find a fan control app that doesn't constantly glitch either. I've gotten to the point where I use macros to launch batch files for switching custom Windows Power Profiles and just hope my temps stay tolerable and I don't BSOD.
Not to mention - this feature was actually conflicting with the app itself (after a restart it used to crash the APP in older versions - basically, you couldn't even start the app anymore - cause it was stuck on an endless crash loop - cause of System Diagnosis).
I brought that one up in another thread "not so long ago" too.
So, i'm sorry to say this - but... if a lack of conflicts - was among your main expectations for MSI Center - an update is all it takes to brake one of the apps/features (or even make the app itself unstable - as it happen not so long ago). Tho, for beginners - this could still be a better option (i take it you're among those who installed Dragon Center and MSI Center at same time?!

- since that scenario was know to cause conflicts). Even while using different apps - Monitoring tools in particular - shouldn't be used together (some apps even have an integrated warning trigger - while detecting another monitoring app already running - useful even for advanced user who didn't paid enough attention or forgot to disable/quit the other app).
No, I didn't install Dragon Center at the same time as MSI Center, lol. Not sure where you got that idea. You know what they say about those who assume... Maybe re-read the earlier comments and use a little logic? I'm fully aware of monitoring app conflicts. And let's be honest, pretty much EVERY app can break from update to update. I'm an old(ish) man, definitely not a beginner. Maybe a little absent minded at times though. Juggling a ton of different apps is ridiculous. You'd think someone would've straightened it out by now. I don't really EXPECT much, but I don't think it's asking too much for us to get at least half of what was advertised for our devices.
I could go on, but well, you know, I think we've exhausted the possibilities of this routine...
