Turn off the HP help

Hello

I have a laptop HP Pavilion Dv6-6b51ea

However, whenever I have pressing F1 I get screens help/assistant HP instead of using Windows 7.

How to recover the F1 key to give me the help Windows to turn off HP help assistant?

Thank you.

Recently, I decided to finally know how to fix this problem after being tired of accidentally pressing f1 and the opening using HP and windowsill.

I didn't keep the media controls a single key and the functions of brightness of the other keys to turn off the function keys in the BIOS was not the answer for me.

Ultimately, after many forums looking at and seeing people talk about changing the registry and stuff and reading, nothing worked, I tried a few things of my own. I was able to achieve the results that I have desired ME. This solution may be no idea for others, but here's what I did.

I opened the window in question and used the Task Manager to keep the window in a file. I found the HelpPane.exe file in the windows directory, I believe in the system32 folder. I was unable to do anything with the file without first taking ownership of it.

Take in hand I went to right click on the file properties

Then to the Security tab and then click the Advanced button

In the new window that pops up, I went to the owner tab, and then

Clicked on edit where I then changed owner to my windows account

After you apply these changes that I returned to the Security tab in the properties of the window and I gave my total control of the account from the file.

Once this done I move the HelpPane.exe file to another folder for the storage and the F1 button gave me is no problem, the pop up stopped popping up, problem solved for me.

(This could eliminate assistance in other applications or have other side effects, but so far I've had no negative side effects so I don't like it as a file system.)

Good luck and if you try, it is at your own risk.

  • Can I turn off the navigation pane in the HTML help permanently?

    My company has a web application on the MicroStrategy platform.

    I created a WebHelp customized to replace the out of the box using MicroStrategy and which works very well.

    We develop the MicroStrategy Office add-in for Excel for our customers.

    Once installed, a CHM file is copied to the client's hard drive.

    We want to replace this with our own custom help.

    I created a CHM file with a subject that redirects clients to our WebHelp customzied with content for the add-in.

    One of the subjects has a redirect in the header HTML following code:

    < meta http-equiv = "refresh" content = "0; URL =https://customhelp.htm#AddIn_Introduction.htm"/ > "

    That works very well in my tests.

    Here's my problem...

    The HTML Help Viewer opens and hides the Navigation pane and displays the WebHelp (navigation pane, the menu bar and topic pane) automatically.

    But, the HTML Help Viewer still has the hide/show/hide button for HTML Help navigation pane.

    Is it possible to disable this hide or let it stand, but turn off the navigation pane?

    As always, any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you-

    Michael F Weart

    You should be able to disable in the settings of the window. Make sure that you uncheck the boxes search and Glossary before you uncheck the Index checkbox & OCD. (My quick test seemed to honor these settings, even when they are grey)

  • Unable to open encrypted drive up to that "turn off the csrutil.

    I was using OSX 8.5 until a few days ago. One of my discs is encrypted. For some reason I couldn't open it for a long time. A day after a reboot, the system refused to open it (I just restart my Mac Book every now and then). I tried several combinations of the password, nothing helps. It was not so important, because the disk contained only the old data.

    Two days ago, I have updated to OS x 11.5 and gave him a new trial, nothing had changed.

    However, today, I needed to disable the security protection by a "turn off the csrutil. A nice side effect is that I can re - open the disk encrypted with my known password.

    Isn't it strange?

    I have long run out of support, so I can hardly open a ticket for this. Maybe some else will do so?

    See you soon,.

    Hello @Kathieh3,

    The steps I have mentioned must be done on the printer screen, not on the computer.

    On the printer screen, press 'Fax'-'settings'-'fax advanced settings'. Once you scroll through the menu options, you will find the "ringing" or "ring volume" option. Select, then reduce the volume.

    Let me know if that helps!

    Hello

    Try the next method.

    Hold the left SHIFT key you click Shutdown to temporarily prevent hybrid boot.

    Let off the laptop computer for 10 seconds.

    Start by typing esc button permanently as soon as you press the power button (do not wait for the prompt) and see if it will access the start menu - if that is the case, select f10 to open the Bios Menu.
