You should reverse engineer it and write a free software replacement!
I did this for my Clevo laptop's keyboard LEDs:

Still one of my most satisfying projects and I use it to this day. These manufacturer apps are so bad. Clevo control center would take over a minute to display a window on screen, it was so aggravating. My replacement program works instantly and is scriptable.
The LED control was implemented over USB. Reversed it by capturing packets with wireshark and replaying them using libusb. MSI probably used ACPI/WMI for this which is much more annoying to work with. I gave up on reversing my laptop's ACPI/WMI features years ago but now that I've got AI I'm trying again, it's been a huge help.
Very good article, thank you!
Not sure this is that happy of an ending. I wish there was more information why - is the payout process too cumbersome and why is this person continuing to provide uncompensated value to these companies?
Oh, and of course it's so bad, that if you once uninstalled it, you need a special cleanup software which may or may not work, but most likely you're done and can't install instgain.
All to set the charging level which, say, Framework exposes in BIOS.
I know there are some Linux-based ways that are supposed to safely write the threshold to EC, but none worked in my case (reasonably new model, supported by every piece of Linux-based software I checked), and one of them flipped the VMD Controller support on, which makes my nvmes invisible to the installed OS.
Awful, terrible piece of software.
