You don't have to, it's purely optional. From my experience built in (in bios) performance modes work well. Limit your power or apply custom fan curves only if you have issues. As soon as you click Apply in the fan + power section bios will be considering the fan profile as "custom"! (no matter if you modified it or not)

You can, the only problem is that MyASUS may override the battery charge limit that you set before. My advice in such a situation would be to set the same limit (i.e. 80%) in both MyASUS and G-Helper.

#### How do I uninstall G-helper?
|
||||
G-helper is a single exe, and it doesn't install anything in the system. To remove it - you can simply delete exe :) If you have applied any custom fan profiles or PPTs - before removing I would recommend selecting your favorite performance mode (for example balanced) and clicking "Factory defaults" under Fans + Power.

### How to install

3. Run **GHelper.exe**
|
||||
|
||||
### Requirements (mandatory)
|
||||
|
||||
- Microsoft [.NET7](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download). Most probably you already have it. Otherwise you can [download it](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/thank-you/sdk-7.0.202-windows-x64-installer) from the official website.

|
||||
|
||||
- [Asus System Control Interface](https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/Image/CustomComponent/ASUSSystemControlInterfaceV3/ASUSSystemControlInterfaceV3.exe). If you have or had MyASUS app installed this "driver" probably still in place (even after MyASUS uninstalls). Alternatively - you can download and install it
|
||||
- [Asus System Control Interface v3+](https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/nb/Image/CustomComponent/ASUSSystemControlInterfaceV3/ASUSSystemControlInterfaceV3.exe). This "driver" from asus should be installed automatically by windows update or along other asus apps. If it's not the case by some reason - you can download and install it manually.
|
||||
|
||||
### Recommendations (optional)
|
||||
|
||||
- You can disable / remove unnecessary services. Ruight click and save [debloat.bat](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/seerge/g-helper/main/debloat.bat). Then right click and Run it as Admin. To restore services - save and run [bloat.bat](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/seerge/g-helper/main/bloat.bat) instead.
|
||||
- It's **not recommended** to use an app in combination with Armoury Crate services, because they adjust the same settings. You can [uninstall it using AC own uninstall tool](https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/14Utilities/Armoury_Crate_Uninstall_Tool.zip?model=armoury%20crate). Just in case, you can always install it back later.
