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.

  • HP Support Assistant Defragent disk running 16 hours and counting...

    I bought this HP Pavilion P6755 (Windows 7 64-bit) about two months and it is a great machine to use.  However later I had on two occasions has experienced a blue screen, I thought I could used the pre-installed HP Support Assistant to try to improve the performance of the machine.  Then I started the update and he passed smoothly up to the part of Microsft Windows Disk defragment, where trotted as always...

    I tried twice, the first run, I let it go for about 14 hours with no luck. the second time I let the process of development for more than 24 hours and when I came back to check it was still marching tune-up?

    I closed this update to half way and started the window of defragmentation tool, and it took less than half an hour to complete the process without any problem at all.

    So what is happening with this update under Hp Support Assistant?

    I have ensured that the Windows 7 operating system has the latest updates, HP Support Assistant in its latest version.

    Another thing so: HP ProBook I use at wwork completes the process of development without problem at all.

    Anyone here has the same problem?

    My PC has i5 and 1 TB hard drive; I used the HP Support Assistant to perform a check of the HARD drive and that you did not no problem either.

    Thanks for any input or possible solution.

    Hello
    Welcome to the HP Forum!

    I recommend that you update the HP Support Assistant. Go on the web portal of support for your office and in the software & Drivers section find the update, download and install it. I would have linked directly to the update for you, but you left the last alphanumeric (s) for your office product name identifier.

  • have replaced my HARD original with an SSD drive, but now my laptop does not recognize HP support assistant?

    Dear Forum,

    I replaced my original HARD with a SSD drive, but now HP support assistant recognizes my phone? The program runs but updates always fail and when I look at general specifications the serial number, product name, number of product, microprocessors, system memory, motherboard, bios system, drive hard (s), and optical drive (s) are all empty. Interestingly, it recognizes the device to display (s) as being mobile intel (R) HD graphics and current resolution of 1366 x 768 and refresh rate 60.

    My laptop is an Australian model HP DV4 3029tx, which is an intel i5 14 "(2ème génération) with AMD graphics 6750" I replaced the original 640 GB hd with a 180 GB ocz vertex 2 using acronis to clone the drive.

    I would be grateful is anyone know how to get hp support assistant to recognize my computer.

    Thank you very much

  • DV6-7214 dead with PLAYER MSATA C after hp support assistant, new bios update. 18/05/13

    I've postponed an update of the bios, because it makes me nervous. Apparently for good reason.

    Today, I let the horse do the update of bios on my win8 race dv6-7214.

    He said he was doing a system restore point, but that seems to have been unnecessary.

    The laptop has a black screen after an hour of "reboot", so I've turned off.

    Turn on the screen remains black.

    No response to any prerssed keys after power, as the ESC key.

    I have read several messages that need to roll back updates of bios, which does not say much for HP regarding

    that it is a recurring problem.

    I do NOT get a blue screen, getting not nothing at all.

    Is there a way to roll back a short bios to ship to HP?

    I did not write down the version of the bios, just trust it was necessary. Don't let hp support assistant to run anything else.

    I guess that I will uninstall HP support assistant, if I never recover my computer to the point where it can turn on.

    Can not think of a software bug as bad as loaded by hp in my bios.

    Anyone? How do I reset the bios with a completely insensitive laptop?

    Thank you chryig, but none that did not work.

    HP support has sent the same solution.

    The dv6-7214 has an msata slot, which can be configured as C drive, I did with an msata ssd.

    The drive that came with the laptop was in the sata slot, as usual, but was not C drive.

    I found someone announcement the same problem, no black screen, (not blue screen) no error message, just in bricks.

    There is also a disc SSD C.

    I tried to temporarily move the msata on slot sata (with an adapter). This allowed the bios end

    its update.

    So it's not the Bios that is broken, but the software to perform the update to the bios is broken.

    Update (bios) fails if drive C is anywhere but the sata slot (or perhaps the c drive should be drive 0).

    I hope that HP will fix this problem. A lot of laptops HP is sold 'improved' with an extra via disk

    value added reseller. Since there are only 2 slots under that drive C may be in, sata and 1 msata

    should be possible to update the bios software to manage this small number of possibilities.

    HP Pavilion dv6-2155dx laptop

    Windows 7 operating system

    .

    I was up later than usual night and the computer was always after midnight. It is usually out before this date. I think that the HP Support Assistant has been programmed to do a tune-up once every two months to 23:00 or 12: 00 but did not a update for a long time because I turn off the computer before the scheduled time.

    .

    The HP Support Assistant started a tune-up as expected but is still running. In my view, it has begun on 28/07/2012.

    HP Support Assistant says "Tune up underway". Happened for several days and don't quit. Until today, he said it as to defragment my hard drive.

    How can I stop and see the results. TS?  All I can find is a list with checkmarks.  There is a red X with the line that indicates.

    Help, please. Thank you

  • iPad, Safari froze and was told that I had to call apple for support assistance.

    My iPad Safari froze and was told that I had to call apple for support assistance.  I called and gave the last four digits of my serial number of the iPad.  They wanted me to download app and pay money, but it felt weird, so I hung up. Am I or my systems compromised in any way by calling and giving the serial number or hang up in time that nothing should be affected?

    Do this...

    Tap Settings > Safari and then slide down and tap clear history & data website, then reboot your iPad.

    The number they gave you is not Apple.

    Never give any personal data abroad on the net, including serial numbers.

  • HP laptop - 15-ay011nr: HP Support Assistant suggests an incompatible update to my system

    Hello

    HP Support Assistant suggested three updates for my system.

    When you try to download the wizard, all of the facilities have not (a phenomenon that has been described by some other posters in this forum).

    So, I looked for each three updates directly in the HP site, after finding my computer and the operating system (HP for computer laptop 15-ay011nr, 10 64-bit Windows).

    I have found two of the updates, but not the third, called: "Intel WLAN for Micorsoft Windows", with Softpaq number SP76133, version 18.40.0.9Pp2, if it is relevant.

    When I reviewed this softpaq number in the site, I have found, but saw that it's only for windows 7 and 8.

    Why the HP support assistant that suggest an update for my system win 10?

    Am I supposed to download it?

    If not, is there a way to stop the support Wizard to think that I should install it?

    Thank you!

    @troubleshoot411, welcome to the forum.

    I agree with using Revo.  This is my go to app for malware.  When you used Revo, you use the advanced option?  This will not only remove the program from the HARD disk, but it removes remnants of the BIOS.  If this is not the case, this could be the problem.  I suggest to try the advanced option to remove HPSA and shut down the computer.  Then, start and reinstall HPSA here.
