  • 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,.

  • 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!

    The steps I've tried: uninstallation with Revouninstaller, resettlement, reset

    @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.

    Hi, new and first post so I'm not sure if this is the appropriate place, I hope that someone will tell me otherwise.  Have computer laptop Pavilion G72 9 months with OS Win 7.  I was wondering if I can uninstall HP Support Assistant on it (not really computers does) so that it won't keep coming and wanting to do things - or me for them, do on the computer?  I'm not entirely sure that it's a necessary software and will occupy the space and not something there.  Would really appreciate if someone can advise on this please, thanks in advance for your help.

    You can uninstall it but are not recommended.

    It is important to keep an update to my view, so that you can keep your drivers up to date apps.

    The part of the maintenance of it I simply turned off altogether.

    I prefer to use other applications and Windows applications by default to keep my PC at its most beautiful.

  • 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.

  • H9-1245eo: update of inauthentic HP support assistant?

    There are about two hours that I was just browsing by chance youtube, one flashed black control top box to the left of my screen. Quickly, I open my task manager and saw that my cpu was used by an unknown program. The program isn't there anymore so I don't remember exactly what his name was, but I vaguely remember having the word "windows" in it, but also a form of the word "restoration" or maybe another word that was similar to it. Everything went pretty fast.

    I happened to have my office to the top at the moment, and coincidentally, I noticed that right now my office was being changed somehow. At this point, I have a dialog box in the lower right corner of my screen of the hp support assistant telling me to restart the computer and asking me if I want to do it now or if I want to do later. Assistant support on my tray icon had now changed color to a light shade of blue. As I looked closely at my desktop icons, I noticed that the icon hp support assistant had changed to a light shade of blue there as well. By clicking on one of the icons some results in the dialog box opening upward again. Looks like HP support assistant had installed an update on my computer without prior guest or indication he did so beforehand. Is this normal? Is - this as well updates from HP support assistant are supposed to work? Nothing like that's never happened before.

    I got a little worried, so I scanned my computer with malwarebytes and Eset nod32 antivirus, but none of them gave no results. I'm just being paranoid here, or is there something dubious going? For more information, HP support assistant is listed as having been installed today when looking at more in the sections "Add/Remove Programs", echoing 69.7 MB. I also noticed that there is a restore point created at the time of installation which confirms that the restore point would the following program: "HP support assistant 8.1.40.3.

    Here is a picture of new icons, as well as the dialog box that appears when you click on it (it's in Swedish):

    @GreenMario3000

    It seems that your HP Support Assistant updated itself the previous 6.x / 7.x version to the newer format HPSA 8.x

    With this new configuration of the HPSA program, you earn a few troubleshooting information - and you lose the ease of development in the older HP Support Assistant that so many people have used over the years.

    Why the tune-up's?

    No idea - HP does not consult with me on politics internal.  The smile.

    My problem is that I can't find it on my new desktop computer.

    Thank you in advance.

    If you see HP Support Assistant of uninstalling programs from the Control Panel, uninstall and reinstall from the site:

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

    I strongly suggest that you do not use HPSA.  It has been problematic and does not work well with some systems of Windows 8/8.1.  There has been cases where he did some unusable computers because of suggestions of bad update etc.

  • 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 - How can I disable start up / remove tray

    Hi, authorized HP Support Assistant to run automatically at startup and to install on the system / boot to the high plateau.  He told me when I was doing what I could disable it at a later date in the settings of the program.  But I can't find it, how to do it please?

    Thank you

    Type msconfig in the search of all the prgorams and files box.

    Click the msconfig icon that appears above to call the system configuration utility.

    Select the Startup tab find the HP Support Assistant in the list and remove the check mark in the box to the left and select OK to make the change take effect the next time you start.

    Once this is done you can always call the program to all programs-> HP-> HP Support Assistant.
