Hi @NICK56855,

Welcome to the HP Support Community.
 

Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.

To uninstall the "OMEN Gaming Hub SDK" driver after removing the OMEN Gaming Hub app, follow these step-by-step instructions to fully remove the leftover driver and service:

1. Use Apps & Features

  1. Press Windows + I → go to Apps > Installed Apps
  2. Look for:
    • OMEN Gaming Hub SDK
    • HP System Event Utility
    • Anything labelled OMEN SDK or HP Gaming Hub Services
  3. If listed, click the three dots > Uninstall


2. Use Device Manager

  1. Press Windows + X → select Device Manager
  2. Expand categories like:
    • System Devices
    • Software Devices
    • Universal Serial Bus controllers
  3. Look for entries named:
    • OMEN SDK
    • HP Gaming Hub SDK Driver
    • Or similar HP-related virtual devices
  4. Right-click > Uninstall device
    Check "Delete the driver software for this device" when prompted


3. Remove HP Services from Windows

  1. Press Windows + R, type services.msc, press Enter
  2. Look for:
    • OMEN SDK Service
    • HP Gaming Hub SDK
    • Or anything with "OMEN" or "HP" and "SDK"
  3. If found:
    • Right-click → Stop
    • Then Disable
  4. Now go to:
    • C:\Program Files (x86)\HP\ or C:\Program Files\HP\
    • Delete any folders named OMEN, HP Gaming Hub, or SDK

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
