How I don't know what download activity takes place at the present time?

I'm on a new laptop using Windows 8 and 8.1 of Windows being downloaded.  I use a satellite connection is a slow Internet connection. For this reason, with this download and other downloads that I did in the past, I need to be able to see what is the status of the download - what percentage has downloaded? Is something that downloads yet? Also, sometimes I get a beep, but no message on the screen, and I have NO idea of what he's trying to alert me to (I guess it has something to do with Internet activity, because when it happened, I was away from the machine.) (I do not even see a "the disk activity" light on the laptop, so I'm really in the dark, unless there is a method of Windows to see the details.)

Can someone tell me where I can configure Windows 8 or 8.1 to let me know what is happening currently?

Hi Suzanne

Try this:

Windows 8 go to the desktop

arrow down to the bar spots at the bottom of the screen

hover over the image of the network (it looks like a monitor and an antenna next to him). near the lower right corner

Do a right click and left click "open the network and sharing Center."

window opens for the network and sharing Center

left click "ethernet" his own upper right corner of the window

This will open the window "ethernet status".

now "sent" and "received" any activity tracks

Hope that helps you

    You must use the disk cleanup utility to remove unnecessary files from your system. If you are unable to collect a lot of space, try to click Clean up system files option too.

    To open disk cleanup just type in the same in the search bar and select the partition.

  • How is used offline connection and how? Don't know what it is?

    Any info on off connection and how to use it would be appreciated.

    Hey, Sheryl,

    You can make network files available offline by storing files shared on your computer so that they are accessible when you are not connected to the network. If you do this, you can work with the files in the same way that you work with them when you are connected to the network. When you reconnect to the network, the changes that you made to the files are updated on the network.

    Sorry, BitLocker is as good as its reputation. The person who has blocked your drive didn't want anyone to read its data without the BitLocker key. I've never heard of someone it cracking.

  • Don't know what version of firefox I use?

    I am very disappointed by Firefox at the moment. This computer has "Firefox Mozilla Firefox Yahoo! Edition 43.0.5" my main computer has ' 34.0.5 but not the edition of Yahoo ' like my laptop.

    Last night, I tried to download a clean download from Firefox. I don't remember what site I got it, but the installed download (Vosteran, com) and many other unwanted malicious software. I had to by SpyHunter to get rid of him. This morning, I tried another site, and it has also installed Vosteran.com.

    So I don't know which site to trust to give me a gooseberry clean version of Firefox. The version of yahoo on this computer has a (-100% - less) under cut, copy, paste bar. the menu button on the drop-down button. My laptop has also. But my main computer does not work.

    I like this feature on Firefox, but I don't have a lot to be forced to use Yahoo as my search engine. I don't like the fact that I can't remove something I do not use search engines. I change my default browser to Google. I don't particularly like Bing, it takes malicious software, including the pirate of Bing.

    In any case at the moment. I don't know what download is real and which is not. I need a reliable version of yahoo version if it's the only one who has the above mentioned less on the menu drop down. So that I can install the right version of Firefox on my main computer and two of my other computers that my wife uses. A quick response would be a great help.

    The edition of Yahoo from Firefox is https://downloads.yahoo.com/firefox/

    Firefox from mozilla.org for Windows, Mac OSX and Linux is clean because it does not come with extras, including the Vosteran.

    Note that from Firefox 34 en Firefox has changed as the default value and not Google Yahoo search engine. This is not the same as the edition of Yahoo.

    With respect to the HP-CCC0 icon, it is safe to remove it from your desktop, because it is not part of your HP software.
