• HP Support Assistant - defragmenting a SSD?

  HP Support Assistant just asked me to launch a regular maintenance, which is fine.

  Then I noticed that he was trying to defragment a SSD drive, so I cancelled it.

  Is the routine support assistant smart enough to know not not to defragment a SSD?

  Obviously not, you must go in the HPSA settings and disable Defrag.

  1 disable any security software before you attempt to upgrade or do a clean install.
  2. make sure that your computer is updated (devices and applications)
  3. disconnect all external devices before installing.

• Re: Win 10 update stay at 55% for 5 hours and counting

  Success!

  Disconnect the external monitor see, necessary ed: I stopped, disconnected the monitor, put on the market and launched the update to win 10. The first phase where you get the % of the messages of progress went to completion, then the machine has restarted and then a second phase has begun - with % complete rework. This second phase has taken much longer, but finally managed.

  It is in the first phase where I got to 55% before dropping out. Now, everything looks good.

  I have a similar problem (Win 10 update won 55%) on my Pavilion 17 e135nr and will post my results here.

• Cannot use, uninstall or reinstall HP Support Assistant

  I had a crash of hard disk and reinstalled from a backup, but the restoration was not complete. Things work pretty well, but not 100%. The key is that my HP Support Assistant PC health does not work and I can't uninstall or reinstall. They are not in the list of installed programs. I get the message that there is already a version of the wizard for help on my drive, whether the download don't reinstall or update.

  I have a HP Pavilion (all-in-One) MS-225 with Win7 Home Premium, 64-bit. It's a year and a half, is no longer under warranty. Is there a way out of this dilemma? Thank you!

  Frank

  UPDATE: I just got the update to run, but it gave me this error message:

  "HP Support Assistant Application Update / your system does not satisfy the minimum requirements for this patch." / However was cancelled. (1602).

  

  Arniceous,

  Thank you for your response and suggestions.

  After a lot of trial and error, I finally got it works as follows: first of all, I downloaded and installed the latest update for HP Update. Then I renamed the folder HP Support Assistant (didn't do any deletion again) by adding ".old" to it and retries, download and install the latest update for the wizard. This time, he worked and installed!

  So at this stage my PC is OK again and back to where it was before the crash of hard/restore disk. All HP now works as it should.

  I hope this can help you and others in the effort to repair that do not have HP help or a fix for.

• HP support assistant

  I am running HP Support Assistant on my new laptop Zbook and found that when driver and other updates are recommended and I go through the process of downloading them they do not install.  When I get back the updates, it says I need to download and install the same updates again.  It is chewing through my download limit and I'm frustrated about how to remedy the problem.  Why they do not install when they have been downloaded.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks for posting your complete product number

• HP Pavilion 500-242ea: do not install after the OS re - install HP Support Assistant

  I had to make one count re - install Windows 8.1 and when I clicked on update HP Support Assistant... a specified message occurred during the update... Click Close. I can not install HP Support Assistant on PC. I downloaded the HP website sp68201 and it ran... the installation process went well but I see still no support help icon in the taskbar even after quick access HP Support Assistant ticking. I checked my pc and HP Wizard is installed in programs and found HPSE and clicked and HP Support Assistant main window appears and then HPSE does not. I uninstalled and reinstalled several times without result.

  I want to do a re factory - set again.

  I can't even re - install through Recovery Manager utility.

  Can anyone suggest how to get Wizard HP work?

  I tried after Forum troubleshooting steps and still get nowhere

  Thanks for the reply.

  I managed to get HP Support Assistant job by running Microsoft Fix It program. I had to restart and run repaired several times. Then, I ran a deep analysis of all files HPSA previously using an uninstall program and deleted remainders. Then I reinstalled sp6801 file and everything is ok. I think that when doing a full reinstall something gets corrupted somewhere in the registry.

  I have another question now with AMD graphic Driver Update which I'll post in the Drivers section

• HP Support Assistant program compatibility recognizes my phone despite several relocations

  HP Support assistant suddenly stopped running my laptop HP dv6t-3100.  I reinstalled several times, and sometimes it works for a few days, then fails to identify my camera, so no loading and so useless.  MS program compatibility tool identifies it as "incompatible".  I don't understand.  My OS is Windows 7, 64-bit, home premium.  It worked well for a few years, but has now become weird.  Does anyone know what it is?  Any help would be appreciated, especially given that this laptop does not work as effectively it was.  Thank you very much.

  Hi Pete B,.

  Where exactly are you trying to download HP support Assistant?
