What a ridiculously bad idea. :-/

As an anecdote, MSI's dragon center utility bricked my motherboard trying to apply a BIOS/UEFI update which required me to use the flashback recovery method and wait in terror for about 15 minutes to see if I would have a working computer again.

After that experience, I will only use the usb thumb drive + booting into BIOS/UEFI method for applying updates.

Yeah, I have an MSI Mobo in my home PC and an older model Stealth. Get rid of Dragon Center. It's an, albeit smaller, resource hog whose functions can be managed through the actual tools as opposed to Dragon Center.
