HP has a factory restore partition on their computers when they are shipped from the factory.  You must read the instructions in the manual of the computer that you received on the restoration of the partition.  Of course, you've now lost all data and programs that were also on the hard drive, unless you have a full backup somewhere else.  Your model, if there is it is accessible by pressing the F11 key to start the system (before Windows starts).  If she is not there and you not create the system restore disks, you will need to contact HP for a set.

  • HP Officejet 6500 - scan of the computer has disappeared on my Win 7 machine and does not exist on my Win 8

    On my Windows 7 machine:

    I used to be able to start "scan my computer" page printer to my control panel, but this feature has been moved (again), perhaps due to an update. Where can I find this feature?

    On my Win 8.1 machine, where can I find a scan of the computer? Currently, I have to use an application of scan user interface modern stupid I have donloaded and installed from other Windows store. I would really like to scan to computer back.

    In fact, I have to pay extra if someone could invent a computer that works the same way on the day the day.  I'm getting a little tired of playing with technology (PCs, iPhones, etc) all suffer a 100% failure rate.

    Hi ou81aswell, welcome to the forums.

    I saw your post about losing your computer option scan. I have some suggestions for you. I can't guarantee a difficulty, however, of course I'll try!

    On your Windows 7 machine and your machine Windows 8.1: run the HP printer install wizard for Windows which will install the appropriate drivers.

    In addition, reset the printer and make sure it is plugged directly into a wall outlet. Avoid power bars, etc.

    Let me know what happens!

    Kind regards

    Hello

    Thanks for the reply.

    You can use the restore points for Windows 7 to return to a previous state, when your computer was working properly.

    System Restore: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/products/features/system-restore

    Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.

    Feel free to post your request here on the Forums of Windows, we would be happy to help you.

  • My firefox has disappeared from my computer. I tried to reinstall, but it won't work. How can I reinstall the program?

    The program has disappeared from my program list. The only thing he is an empty folder of Mozilla. I tried to re install several times but can not get fire fox for running or even provide an icon to launch it.

    It is possible that your security (firewall, antivirus) software blocks or limit Firefox or the process of plugin-container without you inform, possibly after the detection of changes (update) for the Firefox program.

    Delete all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container in the permissions list in the firewall and leave your firewall again ask permission get full and unrestricted, access to the internet for Firefox and the plugin-container and the update process.

    See:

    Start the computer in Mode safe mode with network support Windows (on the startup screen, press F8) as a test to see if this will install Firefox properly.

  • Recently my computer has been reformatted, now Vista gives me the penalty.

    I recently had my computer back in shape by a local group of professionals.  They have done several computers for me in the past so I think that the problem is not with them.

    Now my computer has a lot of free memory space, and I'm beginning to re - install my software, i.e. games, MS Office, you have.  Some of the programs of re - install fine, others get to halfway and the setup.exe doesn't work, finally explore hangs and I have to manually restart the computer.  Anyone else having this problem / had this problem?  Any advice would help, the correct answer would be even better.  Thank you!

    OK, sorry it took so long for me to return.  I solved the problem of installing my programs by copying the files of programs on my C drive and installing this way (worked like a charm).  I now use another question.  I think you might be something with the question if the correct drivers have been installed.  My programs are installed, but now, when I run it I have graphics issues.  IE: the program would work fine, then the screen will turn on briefly, brightness becomes changed (it gets darker) and then Windows will freeze and blue screen on me.  What is a graphics driver issue?  Should I be demanding money from these so-called professionals?  Thank you.  Oh, checked the event viewer and found I had several of them:
