I disabled Asus Q-Installer when I first saw it after booting up. Now, after updating the bios, I was wondering if re-enabling it to update drivers, is a good idea.

I wouldn't.
I'm a huge fan of ASUS motherboards, but I try to avoid all motherboard utilities.

I agree with checking for updates. It's been a while now.
I have used both the cap file and the automatic installations but rely upon the cap file manually.

Digressing may I ask if you use the stock file explorer or another?

There are better apps for a lot of windows functions, but I am satisfied with most of them. The forum has lots of tweaks to tune file explorer to better suit.

Again, thank you for reminders of some tweaks and shortcuts that make using 11 easier. I tried pasting these into my to 'remember folder' for use and referral but instead did the 'save as. instead.
