I would recommend a Fresh Install of the Windows 10 1809 or any Version Upgrade of Windows 10.

I am having the same issue with the DG-8 software (1.0.3).
 
Cheers!

I have seen this issue in my own testing. A fix is being looked into now.

In general 1809 has some issues with most of the Software from EVGA.
New OS needs time to get the Bugs Out. This OS has some Hidden Major Changes to boot

Typical of Microsoft to change a bunch of things and not document it formally anywhere ...

Did you install Todays Windows Update?

Yea, it was no help with PXOC and the Z10 KB for me.

This will be a problem with the way Microsoft treats it's Desktop user base.
They only think Mobile now, they are or are trying to become Apple.
Everyone Blames the OEM when it is 100% Microsoft.
Now the OEM Companies have to Reinvent the Wheel with Each Windows 10 Upgrade.

Hi Improbus,
 
We are still developing a fix to be released in an upcoming update; we have no ETA at this time. Thanks for your patience!
 
Best,

If I can be of any help to your team by privately sending you a config file or anything of the sort, I would be happy to do so.
 
As I'm sure you are aware, this is definitely related to the Windows 10 October Update (1809).  The hardest part of this is that without the software, we have no way to control the fans short of doing away with the EVGA built-in controller, so my fans are currently stuck at 50% unless I use a different controller or extend the fan cables to reach the Mobo.  I'm at least thankful that I replaced the stock ones with a higher static pressure and about 3x the max CFM so they do a decent job even at 50%, but it's still a shame.  I went through the process of updating my BIOS and all Mobo drivers, etc. in the event the primary cause was related to how this major update interacted with the hardware on the board.  I took this step as I had a few hiccups with my TT Floe Riing 360 fan controller after the update, which I was able to fix this way.  However, it did not remedy the EVGA controller issue, nor did attempting to reinstall the DG Tuner software.
 
EVGA support is generally excellent as well, so having this drag out feels extra disappointing, especially since I'm sure many of us updated to 1809 for the dark Windows Explorer theme, so there are likely a lot more people affected by this than are here on the forums.
 
To end on a positive note, this case (DG-86) is wonderfully engineered.  I've yet to be disappointed by it and it seems that everything has a purpose and if it's not useful to me it can be removed, which I greatly appreciate.  The fit and finish along with quality look and feel are remarkable.  My only recommended option would be to make a removable panel above the rear hatch.  I found that cutting that out of the case (very carefully) improved cooling slightly, even after the upgraded fans and tinkering with intake/exhaust settings.  With a radiator filling most of the top section, it's nice to have a secondary free flowing outlet for air to ensure the static pressure inside the case doesn't build causing heat pockets.  That was exactly the issue I had before replacing the stock fans and creating that vent up top.  The air above the 1080Ti and under the radiator was stagnant and super hot compared to the rest of the case.  That no longer happens and the modifications have dropped both the GPU and CPU temps by roughly 14 - 18 degrees F.
 
Again, really looking forward to this being fixed in an update!!
 
 

Windows 1809 gave me the option of going back to a previously installed version which was 1803.
It was located in either the windows recovery or the windows defender portion of settings.
I'm still looking here for a resolve to the issue as windows 1809 was also creating a blue screen crash at cold boot too, figured I would wait until windows has an update for 1809 that resolves everyone's
issue with the EGVA Tuner issue before attempting another installation.

Looking in the windows forums I see that you have a 10 day window to be able to "go back" to your previous windows version...
