  I export to PDF, but can't seem to download and open the PDF files. I need to download something?

  Hi Lisa,

  To download PDF files, you have nothing else except a web browser.
  However, to open the pdf file that is downloaded, you certainly need to download Acrobat Reader: Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution

• HP Support Assistant tells Me to download and install the same update

  I have a HP Envy 700-027c. Maintaining HP Support Assistant telling me to download and install a Cyberlink PowerDVD to sp63146.exe, even if I downloaded it, installed and rebooted my computer 3 times or more. I don't get no error on installation, then believe the installation have been successful.  Please notify. Thank you!

  Welcome to the HP Forum!

  You could try the following:

  Control Panel > display icon > programs and features >

  Scroll down, find and uninstall HP Support hasWizard.

  Restart your computer after uninstalling the existing version of the Support Assistant.

  Download and install the latest version of the HPSA:

  HP Support Assistant

  Restart / reboot the computer and log in

  =====================================================================================

  If the problem persists, you can try:

  • Open HPSA > click "updates and optimizations" (wording may slightly differ) >
  • Select them Updates settings and messages >

  Under ' how would you like to receive updated software and messages from HP?

  • Select in the menu dropdown:

  Search for updates, but let me choose whether to download and install them

  Always in the updates and optimizations >

  • Check / initiate a list of available updates >
  • If the offending hotfix package is still listed, then click on it (maybe right-click?) and a value of 'Ignore' or 'hide' this package

  > Once 'Hidden', the package should not display longer towards the top of the list of available updates.

  Comment

  In particular, it is the opinion of this Expert that you ban HPSA to download and install a BIOS update on your computer.  You should always, in the opinion of this Expert, look for the updates to the BIOS on the website of your computer and only download and install a BIOS update when the update is directly applicable to your situation or if you are having problems with your computer.

• Need to re - register a completed form on in Acrobat Reader and keep the same file name.

  I did collect a form developed for our client in. They need to access and save it several times without making several versions.

  Now that they can open, fill out some fields and "save under" a different file name. They must then go back and edit or add additional information to train at a later date.

  He won't let not the re - save the file with the same file name, only "save under". It is not very practical because they will end up with many versions of the same shape and all earlier versions would be obsolete and useless for them.

  You must disable the preview in Windows Explorer or close Windows Explorer.

• Firefox asks me if I would record the same file repeatedly

  Firefox repeatedly asks me if I want to save the same file. I delete the downloads.sqlite file. I disabled "don't forget the download history. I've upgraded Firefox 7 to 8 Firefox. Still having the same problem. I did uninstall and reinstall Firefox. I deleted the file from my computer. I still have the same problem. Problem only when Firefox is running.

  I am running Windows Vista Home Premium with Service pack 2 (32 bit).
  

  Suggestions how warns we stop/small window pop up that says "you have chosen to open...". You want to save this file?

  Problem seems to be related to the use of speed dial add-on for FF. Some of the documents stored in the speed dial repeatedly ask you to record files/programs.

  Updates automatically downloaded cannot be reused. Suggest you open the link "View update history" of the icon of the Windows Update control panel and write updates have been downloaded and installed.
  Then download and save them from the Microsoft Download Center .
  Just enter the number in the field to Search All Download Center and then click on the "magnifying glass" to start the search.
  You can also change the language and geographic location by clicking on the link edit in the top right of the page.

• Install security updates "successfully", but then my computer downloads and installs the same updates again

  Original title: at Microsoft course to resolve this ONGOING problem, & VERY BORING PROBLEM with his Windows security updates?

  Morning everyone,

  There was considerable number of complaints about the failure of Microsoft to solve the problem with its updates of Windows, including updates security for XP, Office 2003, the removal tool malicious and the infamous KB2538242!  I saw these varied complaints not just here, but on some other sites as well forum.

  In the evening of Tuesday, July 12, 2011, I once more has received notification of Update icon in my taskbar and clicked on it to start the updates.  According to the list, there were 5 so-called updates downloaded & installed... as shown below: (my auto-mises update is updated every day at 01:00):

  KB2555917 (a security update for XP)

  KB2538242

  KB2493523 (a security update for Office 2003)

  KB890830 (updated Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool)

  KB2507938 (a security update for XP)

  SUPPOSEDLY... .these updates have been installed.  But, just as happened previously, Microsoft Update icon still reappears in my taskbar within 20 minutes the so-called updates being completed!  Yet once, I went through this cycle of "download & installation" these supposed updates 4 different times before visiting the account that Microsoft has NOT YET SOLVED THIS CURRENT QUESTION! There is absolutely NO help is available, whether of Microsoft at all... except if you're loaded with money to spend on paying them to offer some apology for the problem.  Here ARE the UPDATES security AND in accordance with the PROTOCOLS of MICROSOFT, MICROSOFT IS supposed TO BE PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR THE QUESTIONS OF THIS TYPE! 

  When the problem instead of turning its back on its customers with the blade go Microsoft to wake up and solve this problem continues is to excuse this "oh, there is no support available for these security update issues... unless you are willing to PAY SOME COSTS FOR the SERVICE?  (It was the response I got from one of the support staff for the customer to Microsoft by phone, said by the way!)

  You VERY DEFINITELY have an ongoing responsibility to your Microsoft customers.   What you do to solve this maddening, growing problem, and how a Win XP SP3 client can get any help?

  Welcome & thank you for your comments.

  Please keep us informed of any progress you make, Pete.

• Why so many Windows updates are available at the same time

  Updates

  * original title - installed more 15 000 updates this morning. Since I use the automatic updates why so many people at the same time? *

  Hi people,

  Is the number of '15000' you see on a black background with the logo of Windows on it? If Yes, then it is just part of the update process. It refers the number of files that are being updated on your system. Normally you would see that the screen but if your computer installs updates, then is not a good stop to install (for example: If you a loss of power or power off your computer), then you will see this screen with the black background, the next time that you start.

  There should not be any cause for alarm, especially if your update history shows the updates installed successfully.

• Access user (UAC) shield appears on a large number of my programs now after Windows Update download and cause problems with some programs, no one knows how to fix this? (Windows 7) (Windows Update post a coupe of weeks)

  Hello

  Windows Update recently made a lot of downloads on my computer about two weeks ago (I run it automatically and it works usually weekly) and he has made some changes to my system that create errors or difficulties with certain programs. The shield of the UAC is now appearing on many more programs for some reason any and now I'm a guest whenever a program is available. which is also appear on my AntiVirus program. Action Center flag appears almost every day now with warnings saying that my AntiVirus program and spyware is off (not sure if this is related to the UAC shield), but when I check my AntiVirus program everything works and after access; the flag of the Action Center shows while all right. Nobody knows how to solve this problem and get rid of the ecu of the UAC on programs (or at least some of them I want to be invited on)? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  I'm sure I've upgraded to Vista SP2, but not absolute, I can't find a lot of information in the case of the newspapers with the service pack level... only vista combined with some process is perceptible. I bought July ' 09 new and it came pre-installed with Vista on it. I think this is the tool I used to remove McAfee on this; It also came with Norton as an alternative option and both have been removed using their tools to uninstall BitDefender installation instructions walked me through the location and the removal of two of them before installing BitDefender on the computer. My user account is configured as an administrator, but when I right click on programs with the shield of the UAC on them, I'm not running as an administrator. The UAC slider is set at the 2nd ranked (by default); but I do not know how it was listed previous, I wondered about moving down one notch (but he advises not and I don't want to spoil anything).
