How do I restore my HP Probook 6445b to factory settings

Hi:
If you have a recovery partition, boot up the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, tap the F11 key and you should be presented with the system recovery menu.
If that doesn't happen or you don't have a recovery partition you will need to order a set of quick restore disks for your PC by calling HP for the country you live in at the link below.

If there is a separate phone number for business PC's/notebooks, call that number.
Inform the customer services rep that you need a set of quick restore DVD's for your notebook.
You will be asked for the model number and serial number, so have those handy.
Cost ranges from free in countries such as the UK, to $10 in the USA/Canada, to more than $10 elsewhere.

    If a restore did not fix it, you have a hardware issue--possible bad wi-fi radio.

  • How to restrict restoring to factory settings on iPhone 4S

    Hi,
    Is there anyway to prevent my phone being restored back to factory settings if someone was to steal it without using a pass code every time I use my phone? Exactly like the restrictions but I couldn't find out how to stop them restoring my phone back to factory settings.
    Thanks

    Nope. Since it looks like you are on ios7 then in order to restore you need the apple id and password you used to set it up. Anyone that steals your phone cannot restore it. Although not using a passcode is not recommended because then if it is stolen they can get all your personal information off the phone.

  • How can I restore to factory settings and wipe harddrive?

    I am selling my macbookpro 2.16GHz 120GB Duo Core online and I want to be sure that any information cannot be reclaimed from the hard drive. So far I have transfered my files to an external HD and erased all files on the laptop through the trash can application, including emptying the trash. I then inserted the original install disk which I believe returned the computer to factory settings because once it is turned on it begins with the welcome/ set up screens. But I really just want to be sure that I have erased everything and that nothing can be rebuilt from the hard drive. Should I have done something else to "deep clean" it?

    Boot from your OS installer disk. The one that came with the MBP. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Select the hard drive and then select Erase. You have several choices for the erase procedure so select the one you prefer. The more passes you select the longer the procedure will take. Then install the OS. After the last reboot when Mac Setup Assistant begins to run quit it and direct the Mac to shut down. The next time it's booted (by your new buyer) it will run again and they will have the opportunity to set it up from brand new.

  • HT2731 how do i restore the factory settings on ipod?

    daugther put her password wrong 3 times. now blocked how do i restore factory settings?

    If it's showing the red disabled screen then you will need to connect it to the computer that it's normally sync to and you should then be able to reset the iPod and restore/re-sync the content to it (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212) - you may need to put the iPod into recovery mode in order to be able to reset it : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
    If you do it via a different computer then :
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present.

  • Any file I open, along with the color swatches and sampler, in PS has a warm white color where it is supposed to be white. I don't now how this happened and I have no idea how to get the whites back. Please help, thanks, P

    as I stated. the white in any file I open in PS s a warm white. I don't know how this happened or how to fix it. I do know it is not my PC or moniter. Only in PS. any hepl is appriciated, thanks, P

    My5cats, Cris may have more to add but here are some thoughts.  A calibrated monitor does have warm whites.  We perceive a blue white as being correct but it isn't.   i don't know if you are using monitor calibration or not.   One possible area is that Photoshop is set to a paper or some other gamut.  You can check (in PS) by going to the Edit menu > Color settings.  Here is a picture of mine.  I set the working space to sRGB which is used for the web and many printers.  If you get a correct setting , consider saving it.

  • Reinstalle​d and finally got HP Dir, etc. How to undo "Restore to Factory Settings"?

    Finally, a reinstall that looks great, even has HP Dir  accessable, although no desktop Icon.  Using  XP Home, SP3, 
    HP PSC 1310 series 1315xi,  (not s)  can't  find  My Profile  to  see  Settings options.   Clicked "Restore Factory Settings" but now would like to just try the updated install.   Can I do it without a  whole  new  reinstall, which might not come out as well as this one?   TIA.

    Hi,
    It actually displays a message saying something like No return. From my understanding NO RETURN means you can't undo the Factory Restore Settings after completion of the process.
    Hope this helps.

  • I forgot my passcode, the power button is stuck (phone is on), so how can I restore to factory settings?

    My 4s is locked out because we forgot the passcode.  I can't restore it from iTunes backup since I can't turn it off because the power button doesn't work.  If I treat it as a stolen phone and erase via Find My iPhone, will I need that power button to work in order to get it up and going again after restoring?

    The phone is pretty much disabled if either button doesn't work.

  • Reinstalled and finally got HP Dir, etc. How to undo "Restore to Factory Settings" though?

    Can I change "Restore Factory Settings",  to updated ones, just to try them,  and change back, if I want,   without a whole new  reinstall?  Finally got HP Dir, after more than a year!    No Desktop Icons, though.  TIA.
