PC HP TS laptop: HP Support Assistant

I don't know if it's his fault, but after I did some automatic Windows Update my sound buttons and the sound no longer works. I then decided to try the audio driver updates that I had turned off in the support area assistant, this is where the real problem started. After that everything to do with function keys and her broken so I did a system restore to which the result was me not being able to log in. I would like to know if it is a virus or if it is an unknown problem with HP.

Hi @Adam-Williamson.

Welcome to the HP Forums!

It's a great place to find answers and advice!

You have the best experience in the HP forum, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the HP Forums.

Learn how to post and more

I understand that you upgraded to Windows 10 and after a Windows update, you lost your sound. Then, you installed the audio updates recommended the HP Support Assistant that you had been turned off. So you lost your sound, and the function keys did not work.  You then tried a system restore, but now you can not log on to Windows.

I suggest that if you have a Windows 10 image recovery that you use to perform a recovery.  If you do not then a clean install of Windows 10. Here is the link to get Windows 10, click on "use of the media creation tool" and click "perform a new installation using a USB or DVD"

Please let me know the results.

  • HP 14 laptop: HP Support Assistant

    Hello everyone and good evening. I'm here to ask for clarification or help if my HPSA works correctly.

    I just used my recovery partition / restored my pc to factory settings and noticed that when I open HPSA and choose an option to update: updates, but let me choose whether to download and install them. This setting will reflect or setting is not the same thing in my Windows Update settings.

    I just want to clarify if this is normal?  and that this parameter has nothing to with the windows update settings.

    Thank you and good day.

    @Zinedane

    It's a good question - and the answer is that the HPSA settings apply to the driver HP and software updates.  Normal behavior in your HP Support Assistant.

    In point 8.1 of Windows, you have control over how / when Windows updates are applied to your computer.

    Start the Windows Update program > change settings

    Thank you

    Surprise!

    When I tried to open the HPSA this morning as I in fact during these last two weeks, I was surprised that works correctly without any solution which is given to me. A HP technician called me telling me that it is recommended to the computer in a store.

    This means that, apparently, the problem was the program. FYI, the program has been uninstalled and reistall 5 times, new version. And twice the reocvery for the original and did not work.

  • 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!

    Hey there! @Eitan_L, thank you for visiting the Forums from the HP Support!

    I understand that HP support assistant is to give false information.

    I suggest you uninstall all components of HP support assistant programs in Control Panel.

    Restart your PC and reinstall the latest version of HP support assistant from this link: http://hp.care/2ezPyyk

    After installation please try to check the updates and see if you still have the same problem.

    Please let me know the results!

  • Omen J2W10AV #ABA: driver Nvidia laptop HP Omen - HP Support Assistant or Nvidia Geforce experience?

    Is there a difference between the graphic drivers downloaded through Nvidia GeForce experience or HP Support Assistant? Their version numbers do not match. I currently use GeForce experience to keep my graphics driver updated, but I also have a problem with how strong the fan may be when you play. I didn't know how hard it gets. If the driver supplied by HP is better suited for this laptop?

    Appreciate any help.

    @Kimikaze ,

    Hello and thanks for the display on the HP support forums.  When going with drivers for all laptops always stick with links and tools from manufacturers.  The reason is that pilots have been designed for this application.  They can use a similar number as a GT750 however chip the chip built for laptop him more often were modified slightly to adapt to demand.

    Link at the bottom, so only use the drivers from HP and tools for your HP laptop.  Direct drivers from the chipset manufacturer may not be the same and ask questions for you.

    Thanks again for posting and have a great day.

  • HP Support Assistant on my laptop or desktop does not detect the other machine.

    HP Support Assistant on my desktop or my laptop does not detect the other machine.  They are both on the same network.  Both are HP machines. Both are running Windows 10.  Is normal.  I would like to kind of monitor my desktop with my laptop when I'm away from home.

    @bmedbury

    The behavior you describe is normal - the HP Support Assistant is a program "per computer", in other words, each program HPSA lies and keeps track of just a computer on which the program is installed.

    Hello

    Try the following.

    Unless you still have the installer, download the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - download links are to the bottom of the page - and Save the installer to your download folder.

    http://h18021.www1.HP.com/helpandsupport/HP-support-Assistant.html

    Then, if you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip.  Please note that If you have a 64-bit installation, download and install the Installer x 64 64-bit .msi on the link below.

    http://www.7-zip.org/

    Then, right click on the HPSA installer you download earlier, select Extract 7 - Zip, select the files, and then click Ok.  The newly extracted folder, right-click on UninstallHPTCA and select "Run as Administrator" - you may well see no progress of this attempt uninstalling, then leave the laptop at idle for a good 10 minutes before restarting it.

    When Windows has completely recharged, run Microsoft 'Fixit' on the link below again before trying to install the new version of HPSA...

  • Laptop does not start after HP Support Assistant ran some update

    ENVY of HP dv7-7387er

    Yesterday my HP Support Assistant showed a message that there are a few critical updates. I confirmed to download and install it. After it was something like the BIOS update. And now my computer will not boot (black screen, no sound, only power led is on). I have to postpone my trip to fix. Can help you with something?

    I tried http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c01443371 , but it did not help.

    Has been useful for me this: remove the battery, wait 1 hour, insert the battery, turn on the laptop and everything works ok. The key was - remove the battery for a long time.
