    Dell XPS 15 L502X

    I recently installed some driver updates. Since then, Windows Mobility Center generates an error message when it opens:

    QuickSet Error
    Error found! Submit this issue to QuickSet owner!

    I must dismiss the error three times, after which the "Customized by Dell Inc." items finally appear in the lower half of Windows Mobility Center.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled QuickSet, but no change: the error still appear.

    Updates I installed, prior to this error appearing:

    Renesas USB 3.0 Host Controller Driver
    Realtek Ethernet Driver
    Intel PROSet/Wireless Bluetooth Software
    Intel PROSet/Wireless WiFi Connection
    JMicron JMB389 Card Reader


    Anyone ever seen such errors, or know the cause?

    I found the cause.

    Intel PROSet/Wireless Bluetooth Software version 3.0.1304 causes errors in the Dell section of Windows Mobility Center.

    Intel PROSet/Wireless Bluetooth Software version 2.6.1212 does not cause those errors. It is not as new as 3.0.1304, but it is newer than what I had previously installed.


    Still don't know why version 3.0.1304 causes those errors.

    Thank you , solved my problem with my XPS L502x .

    It also solved a host of other issues like not being able to receive files from a bluetooth device , oddly the mouse controls ( drift, trails, bounce etc have also now returned ). Faster boot too !

    I've just always removed Quickset completely, permanently. Does it have something not native to Windows that you need?

    Yes. QuickSet enables the three hardware buttons work: Waves MaaxAudio, keyboard backlight toggle, Dell Instant Launch button. I believe it also enables other functionality, but the hardware buttons are what I recall at the moment.
