Health Check Auto-run disabled (not by me!)

I've hardly used my laptop since mid-Dec due to gall-stones problems/hospitalisation (now resolved - yippee!).
When I powered up this morning to run updates/scans etc, WIn Patrol showed a message that my HP Health Check auto-run had been disabled and that I should reinstal it.
I've not disabled it nor can I find the solution elsewhere in the Forum.
I'd appreciate your help please. Thanks.

thanks for that, Erico.  I already have, and use the HP Support Assistant.
I've found the HP Health Check Folder - it's dated 7th March 2015 and has four folders in it. Three (ActiveCheck, Guid and HPasset) have the same date - the fourth (Tools) is dated 14th July 2014.
The oldest file in ActiveCheck is from Nov 2010.
I have never installed the Health Check nor changed or even seen its settings. All I can say is that from time to time a message would appear that it was running/had run.
On the 2nd March 2015 (the date of my post) there was a message that Health Check had been disabled etc., hence my post.
If you think it's best not to have it auto-run I'm happy with that but I'm now confused that five days after my post, the three folders mentioned above were created. I didn't do that so how could it have happened? Are they legit or could they be a trojan/virus or something nasty?

    Hi,
    I suppose these are background jobs. Usually there is an issue with background jobs that are run for a custom developed program. Not sure why that happens. Even i faced this issue with a couple of jobs in my system. I have still not found out the reason as to why this happens. There might be a possibility that these projects were being processed in the foreground by some user and hence they were omitted from the run.
    I would suggest you to consult your technical guys on this.

  • Remove HP health check

    How do I get rid of, or prevent from loading, the following. Using start-Ed program, it shows the following loading each time I start my laptop:
    Name: NCPluginuploader
    File:  C:\Program Files(X86)\Hewlet-Packard\HP Health Check\ . . .
    I have Windows 7, sp2. Using it with Firefox version 11.
    Going to "services," there is no listing for HP Health Check Service so I am unable to get to its properties to select "disable!"
    HELP

    Hi @Healthcheck ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you would like to disable the HP health check as you could not locate it.  It is part of the HP Support Assistant.  I did not see any option to disable a single function of it but you can deselect the HP Support Assistant from the start up options.
    I hope this helped.

  • Auto Run off but report access via URL generates default

    Hi,
    We have BI Publisher 10.1.3.4.1. I access reports via URL from another application outside BI Publisher.
    For my reports, I have Auto Run disabled. Still Accessing the link via URL seems to generate report instead of waiting for user
    to enter parameters and click view.
    When I view report via BI Publisher, the behaviour is ok, i.e. it won't generate until I click the View button.
    Does anyone know how to make sure BI Publisher won't generate report without an explicit click of View button when invoked by URL.
    Thanks
    Girija

    Hi Tim,
    I am calling the report in _xmode=6 i.e. the parameters show and the view button shows.
    We want the user to be able to input their parameters and run the report.
    regards

  • Exchange 2010 health-checks with encryption and ntlm auth

    Hi everybody,
    I will be forced to implement extended health-ckecks for Exchange 2010 CAS Servers. So the cisco design guide does not help
    Exchange2010 CAS Service needs ntlm auth for many services by default. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb331973.aspx
    Now with SP1 also for pop3 and imap4. I have not found any option to use ntlm by default.
    The next problem is encryption.
    Health-checks with encryption are not integrated in cisco ace 4710 by default.
    As an alternative to try a scripted health-check with tcl script is an option but needs more investigation and is timeconsuming.
    I watched for other vendors solution, they use e.g. external imported shell scripts with curl (curl -s --ntlm -k -X POST ...) to do a health-check with ntlm. That would be fine at the moment to beat the requirement of extendet health-checks.
    But maybe it is only ntlm verion 1, I do not know what happens if it comes to ntlm version 2.
    Kerberos authentication is a much bigger problem, but at the moment not a requirement.
    Does anybody has some hints or also a tcl script for exchange health-checks ?
    Best Regards

  • Auto-start services not running :Shell Hardware Detection in my Health Reports

    Recently I've setup up Windows Server 2012 Essentials on my Custom-made Box. All is going well so far except that i have a warning in my generated Health Report such as
     Auto-start Services Not Running Shell
    Hardware Detection.
     I had checked My Services and found out that this particular service is scheduled to start Automatically and it is always started...
    Any Advice what might be the problem? 
     

    Susan, can you still see the Connect bug? What Product/Program is it under in Connect? I can't see it but I might not be a member of the correct group.
    From http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831394.aspx:
    "After a server has been added to the Server Manager server pool, service alerts about the Shell Hardware Detection service can be displayed if there are no users logged on to the managed server. This occurs because the Shell Hardware Detection service runs
    only when users are logged on to the managed server, or connected to a Remote Desktop session on the managed server. To avoid seeing Shell Hardware Detection service alerts for this case, click
    Services in the thumbnails for server groups, including the
    All Servers group. In the Services Detail View dialog box, on the
    Services drop-down list, clear the check box for Shell Hardware Detection, and then click
    OK."
    That confirms that it's okay for Shell Hardware Detection not to be running. However the suggested fix--removing it from 2012 alerting--does not keep it off my 2012E Health Report.

  • HPSA Health Check not working in W8.1

    Hi,
    I am running Windows 8.1 Pro and I can not get the HPSA to download anything from the HP servers.  It states that it connects but it stops at that point.   I have uninstaled my current version, restarted my pc, downloaded the most current version of HPSA (7.6.31.30)  and installed it, restarted my pc and am still getting the same behavior.  Below is a screenshot (it looks like XP but it is 8.1).  I have searched the forum for a possible solution but have had no luck.

    Hello @MattNC79,
    Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
    I have read your post on how the HP Support Assistant Health Check does not work on your Windows 8.1 Pro computer, and that you have already uninstalled and re-installed the software. Since most consumer computers only come with Home editions of Windows installed, there may not be any compatible drivers for your Operating System. I would be happy to help you, but first I would encourage you to post your product number for your computer. Below is a is an HP Support document that will demonstrate how to find your computer's product number. In addition, it will also help if you indicate whether your operating system is 32 or 64 bit. The more information you can provide, the better!
    How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Is the Windows Version on My Computer 32-bit or 64-bit?
    Please re-post with the necessary information, this way I will be able to research this further for you. I look forward to your reply!

  • Firefox drop down not allowing page redirect is preventing me from auto running and installing software

    When I try to install software, Firefox window opens with a drop down box stating Firefox is not allowing page to re-direct. I click on allow, and it goes back to original page. It is preventing me from auto run and installing software. I tried several times, and it just runs me in circles.

  • SSRS 2008 R2 Report parameters have default values and report not to auto run

    Hi, I am using SSRS 2008 R2 one of my requirements for a Report is all the parameters have default value and I do not want this report to auto run when users open this report. I can create a dummy hidden parameter to break the auto run for this
    report. But I am looking for solutions other than that.
    Thanks in advance..........
    Ione

    Hi lone,
    According to your description, you have a report with parameters. Now you want you report not to run automatically with your parameters default values. Right?
    In Reporting Service, if you have parameters with default values in your report, your report will always auto run with these default values. We can say these default values are used for report running initially. So for your requirement, if you really need
    to see your default value before the report running, the best workaround is set one more parameter to break the auto run like you have done. If you just want your report not to auto run, your can achieve it by removing those default values.
    Reference:
    Report Parameters (Report Builder and SSRS)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
    Best Regards,
    Simon Hou (Pactera)

    Upgraded IPad to to 8.3, now auto fill is not working. I have checked, rechecked "my info", "saved passwords", etc. to no avail. Is this bug in 8.3. Never did this until I upgraded. Wife is not happy I upgraded!

    Auto fill works for me in iOS 8.3.
    Try the standard troubleshooting steps in this order:

    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10-15 seconds). No data will be lost.

  • Payment Wizard Run does not create Payment/Check

    Does anyone know possible reason/s, why payment wizard run will not create payments and checks?
    The wizard goes up to Execute Step, after execution, it shows:
              0 Payments Created
              0 Checks Created
    I have compared settings (Banking, BP, Payment methods) with Demo Company (Where wizard runs to create Payments and Checks)
    The client is on SAP B1 2007A
    Thanks in advance for help

    I've found several reasons for the Wizard not creating checks.  I don't know if any of these are relevant to you, but take a look.
    1. The vendors do not have default pay-to addresses.  They may have pay-to addresses, but if there is not one that is designated as the default for each vendor, the wizard will not select any checks for them.
    2. The vendors have a default house bank that is different than the bank you are using for the checks.  It is OK if the house bank for a vendor is blank, but it cannot be different from the bank you are using.
    3. If the vendor reference number on any AP invoice is more than 34 characters long, the wizard will not select any invoices from that vendor for payment (yes, the reference number field is 100 characters, but SAP support confirmed this limitation).  Since you are not getting selections for any vendors, this is probably not the issue in your case - but keep it in mind.
    I hope this is helpful.
