Pavilion: How I clean files (recovery) D-drive or expand the drive?

I try to upgrade to WIndows 10, but not because the D drive is full. I tried to right click on the drive in disk management, but don't get a Help menu (which doesn't help).  I clicked on show hidden files, but the files in D are still hidden.

Basically - you do not have!  If you bother with the kind of recovery partition, you will 'break' and prevent you from then do any function of HP recovery.

My guess is that you're trying to upgrade through Windows Update Win10 - which is the more error-prone and unreliable way to do.

Instead, you must download and create this link installation media, insert the media while Win8.1 is running and see if it then you can perform the update: 10 Windows Installer using the media - Windows help authoring tool

Good luck

  • How to select files in a directory by typing the first letter of the name as in 95 - > XP

    How to select files in a directry by typing the first letter of the name as in XP

    Something has changed on my copy of Vista 64 bit Home Premium edition, and now when I try to type the first letter of a name of file to access it, rather Vista puts in the search box in the upper right corner of the window.

    It's counterproductive and annoying _ out of me. I want to jump for filenames beginning with that letter, not clear the screen and show the stuff that is not in the current directory. Especially since I regularly work with earlier versions of windows.

    How should I do so that I can type in the names of files in Explorer and jump to files beginning with this letter as in all previous versions of Windows since at least win95?

    Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and scroll down where it presents two options when entering in the list view.  Check the box to select the item type in the view.  This is part of what you want.

    If you type a letter, it will go to the files/folders starting with this letter (and not the search box); However, I just tried it myself and it seems to work only for the first letter.  If you type in a second letter, he will then the files/folders starting with THIS letter instead of files that begin with the first letter typed and then refining to files beginning with the two first letters typed and so on.  I can't make it work any better than this - unless I type really fast (and it seems to work as it should most of the time).  And I want really fast.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Pavilion g6: I deleted files recovery on D drive

    I have a HP Pavilion with Windows installed 8.1 g6. I accidentally deleted my files recovery on D drive. How can I restore them. I have Windows 8 recovery disks.

    It is unlikely. You can try the Recycle Bin of Windows, but it is unclear if it will work.

    I could try removing just to see if it works on my HP spectrum 13 XT ultrabook product loan.

    Edit:

    Ok. I tried today. I have found that if you want to delete the file, it would require administrator privileges. A specific and very important file is too large for the tank and asked me if I was sure I want to delete it again.

    Recovery of files that are located in the partition cannot be retrieved from the trash.

    You need to perform a factory image recovery if you want to have a labour recovery partition.

  • Pavilion P6-2100: a virus erased files recovery D: drive and disabled windows update

    When I realized that my Windows 7 was not updated as usual on my Pavilion P6-2100, I found that at least one of the files associated with the software update was missing in the area of abuse.  I was going to do a refresh of the system and then found that the recovery files in drive d: had been erased.  Googling the problem indicated that the problem was caused by a virus.  It seems to have other problems, except that Windows 7 is not updated.  (I hope that's the only problem).  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

  • How to upload files to iCloud drive without installing anything on my PC.

    I use a PC with Windows 7, and currently, I don't use Apple products.

    I have an iCloud account, and I wanted to add some files to iCloud drive and make room on my computer.

    How can I use my browser (Chrome) to add files to iCloud by car?

    When I go to https://www.icloud.com/#iclouddrive , it tells me to download the software. I don't want to download any software iCloud or sync with my computer, I just want to download my files to iCloud by car so I can make room on my computer.

    Thank you!

    I can't find any documentation from Apple that says clearly, but I suspect that there is a requirement first activate iCloud drive from an Apple device or iCloud for Windows. Once this has been done, you should be able to download directly using the link you posted (and I'm able to do).

    Note that iCloud is mainly oriented towards the synchronization of data between devices rather than having a storage cloud orientation only. There are other services that can be better adapted to your needs.

  • How to access files on my drive Z?

    I run Windows 7 Pro and have a secure partitioned drive called Z-drive.  When I try to access this drive, the computer tells me that I don't have permission to view the files on this drive.  This makes no sense because I'm logged in as an administrator.

    This partition takes 186 GB of space on my hard drive... it's over 1/4 hard my entire computer space.  I should have access to it.

    I called Microsoft support and they told me that I have to pay to get access to my remote computer because Microsoft 7 is no longer supported.  I hope I can get help so that Microsoft does not require me to pay for disk space that I bought when I bought this machine.

    Please help me to access this drive.

    Thank you!

    It is not on your hard drive.  It does not all the space on your hard drive.

    Records management function, your main hard drive is '500 GB'.  The size is in quotes because the manufacturer of the drive, 500 GB = 500,000,000,000 bytes.  Windows, however, uses "kilobyte" means 1024 bytes; "Mo" means 1024 KB; and 'to' means 1024 GB.

    Therefore,.

    500,000,000,000 bytes / 1024 = 488,281,250 KB

    488,281,250 OF 1024 KB = 476,837.16 MB

    476,837.16 MB / 1024 = 465,66 GB

    For example, when disk management displays GB 465,76, which translates one about 500 GB drive in disk measurement manufacturer.

    The three partitions displayed on your drive hard drive total 465 GB, including 186 for your system drive and 254 GB for your data (which is almost not used, you probably have not transferred your files of data user yet. see http://www.techsupportalert.com/content/how-move-windows-7-personal-folders-my-documents-another-drive.htm).

    It seems that you also have a 2 TB WD My Passport Ultra and a 500 GB WD My Book attached as external drives.

    My guess is that the 'Z' drive has something to do with automatic SmartWare backup online Western Digital, especially given that you have the SmartWare CD in your CD drive.  Experimentally, disconnect your computer from the Internet and restart.  Is the drive Z still there?

  • How to clean my computer to look like at the store

    my computer is slowing down a lot so that I thought takinf progams all out to clean and restore after that how can I do?

    Hello

    You mean put how much you bought your computer when it was new?

    You will need to backup all your data, but unfortunately, the programs you have installed will need to be reinstalled from the original media that they came on (CD, etc.).

    Please read these methods to reinstall Vista:

    There is no Windows Vista downloads available from Microsoft.

    You can contact your computer manufacturer and ask them to send you a set of recovery disks.

    They should do this for a small fee.

    To reinstall Vista using their recovery disk/s, you start from the 1st recovery disk they provide and follow the manufacturer's instructions to reinstall:

    You need to change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order:

    How to change the Boot order in BIOS:

    http://pcsupport.about.com/od/fixtheproblem/SS/bootorderchange.htm

    "How to replace Microsoft software or hardware, order service packs and replace product manuals.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/326246

    And if you have never received a recovery disk when you bought your computer, there should be a recovery Partition on the hard drive to reinstall Vista on how you purchased your computer.

    The recovery process can be started by pressing a particular combination of the key or keys at startup. (Power on / start)

    Maybe it's F10, F11, Alt + F10, etc., depending on the manufacturer.

    Ask them to the proper key sequence.

    And if you do not score a manufacturer of recovery on your hard drive, you should be able to make your own recovery from her disks to reinstall the operating system.

    Go to programs > name of the manufacturer of your computer > then their system or recovery tools software topics for them, depending on how it is formulated.

    If you can't find any reference to it, contact the manufacturer for advice on how to make these recovery disks.

    Some manufacturers have more available Vista recovery disks.

    If this happens, you may need to try this instead:

    You can also borrow and use a Microsoft Vista DVD, which contains the files for the different editions of Vista (Home Basic, Home Premium, Business and Ultimate) must be installed. The product key on your computer / Laptop box determines what Edition is installed.

    Other manufacturers recovery DVDs are should not be used for this purpose.

    And you need to know the version of 'bit' for Vista, as 32-bit and 64-bit editions come on different DVDs

    Here's how to do a clean install of Vista using a DVD of Vista from Microsoft:

    "How to do a clean install and configure with a full Version of Vista '

    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/117366-clean-install-full-version-Vista.html

    And phone Activation may be necessary when you use the above installation method.
