Windows 10: Win10 version 1903 update fail despite having the latest Intel RST drivers

I have updated my Intel RST drivers to the latest version (17.5.1.1021) but windows update still keeps preventing the win 10 feature 1903 update from progressing raising the Intel RST issue.


How can I resolve this?

Intel RST service is not running

Hi,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

The Intel RST service is for the Intel Rapid Storage Driver. The Intel Rapid Storage Driver provides speed for data transfer and improves the performance for SATA drives or PCIe drives.

• What is the make and model of the computer and motherboard?
  

You can follow the methods mentioned below and check if that helps:

Method 1: Changing the startup type for Service

You can try changing the startup type for the Intel RST service and check if that makes a difference. Please refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press and hold Windows key + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type serivces.msc and click on
   OK.
   
3. Now, scroll down, look for Intel RST service, right click on it and click on
   Properties.
   
4. Now, under startup type select Automatic from the drop down menu.
   
5. Click on Apply and OK.
   

Method 2: Updating the drivers manually

You can try downloading the latest version of Intel Rapid Storage Driver from the

Intel Website and check if that helps. However, I would suggest checking with the motherboard manufacturer website as well.

If you are using RAID configuration, I suggest you to post your query in

TechNet forums, where we have support professionals who are well equipped with the knowledge on RAID configuration.

Since the latest Win10 update intel RST has stopped working...


Hi everyone,

Windows 10 just launched a big update (16th April was the installation for me), I believe it enabled Cortana here in Australia, upon restarting I was getting annoying notifications I had previously disabled, and a bunch of smaller software updates were available.

Anyway, I noticed my Intel Rapid Store Technology icon was not the usual "green tick", instead it was a little blue circle, indicating it was not running. When trying to open the application I get an error asking me to restart or reinstall. I did both, but RST will not install, citing that my "platform is not supported" - this is using the latest drivers on the intel website: Download Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) RAID Driver

I've browsed countless forums, all with different suggestions, I've tried uninstalling the previous version, using 7zip instead of winRAR, using older versions of the intel RST drivers, restarted 20 times, manually starting the service in services.msc etc. nothing works.

I'm guessing this is some sort of version related issue but I am not tech savvy enough to resolve the issue so I'm hoping someone can help me out here... any suggestions are greatly appreciated, I've attached some system info and the install log below:





IntelRST.log

I'd be happy to provide any other information, thank you dearly

 

Intel RST service

Since it's an upgrade, some software/drivers may need update to support Windows 10. Hence try updating the software/drivers to the latest version and then check.

Additionally, check with the software support for compatibility with Windows 10.

Latest version of Intel RST can be found here:

Download Intel® Rapid Storage Technology (Intel® RST) User Interface and Driver

Regarding WiFi, kindly contact the computer manufacturer support on compatibility with Windows 10.
