HP Envy m6, Updated for Windows 8.1, hard drive needs to reboot

Hey, 
I've just updated my software to get the new Windows 8.1. On completing my updates, I recieved a message saying my hard drive has changed and that I need to reboot it. How do I do this? Do I risk losing my files? HELP
HpEnvym6beats

Hello hpenvym6beats. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. I understand the computer provided a message, indicating the hard drive has changed. It shouldn't become a huge issue, as it does occur sometimes, after completing updates. Just turn off the computer and turn it back on. Your files should not be lost, after completing this task.
Please respond if you have any other questions or concerns.

  • ITunes update crashed windows, no bootable hard drive

    When I went to shut down my computer last night, there was an iTunes update.  I clicked ok, then put the computer on the table.  Next thing I know, I get the dreaded blue screen with a bunch of characters, saying, I think, Windows has encountered an error.  It tried to re-boot, but said that there was no bootable drive.  Naturally, I panicked.  Ran the entire Pre-boot check, everything passed.  Tried to re-boot, same thing happened.  Frustrated, I turned my machine off, then back on and everything appears to be ok.  However, I'm afraid to try the update again.  Any suggestions?

    I believe you boot your windows and update immediately will help.  Sometimes when windows run for a period of time, the system is unstable. Then when you install something, it may crash windows.  So anytime install a software, reboot windows first to ensure system clean.

    This bit is interesting from the Windows Phone Blog in regards to this update.
    Remember, while we are releasing Lumia Cyan for a large number of phones, there still may be some of you that are not offered the Cyan update, yet. However, as explained in the blog, we’ll continue to add more Lumia devices every couple of days over the coming weeks until we bring everyone up to the latest.

    After installing the safari update for windows, outlook is now not opening email hyperlinks.  I have set safari to be my default browser but outlook won't open it when I click a link.  I get the following message: "This operation has been canceled due to restrictions in effect on this computer.

    Hi mcclausky, you may need to manually remove a policy setting from the registry. You also should scan for malware that might have created this problem.
    This article lists scanning and cleaning tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    To check your Windows registry for policy settings that might affect Firefox or other programs, I suggest consulting a Windows forum or Microsoft's forums. For example:

  • ITunes Update for Windows Vista 64 bit

    Does anybody know when this is going to be released. I got an iPhone and can't sync it with the latest version of Windows Vista. The friendly staff at AT&T forgot to tell me that I would not be able to use my iPhone until iTunes came out with an update for Windows Vista.
    Thank You.

  • How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows?  I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

    How do I manually transfer music with the new itunes update for Windows?  I don't want to sync my library and lose all of my music for what I have in my current library.

    The same way it was done in every previous version.
    Connect the device to the computer.
    Right click on the device in iTunes and select Transfer Purchases.
    Why would you lose any content by syncing with iTunes?
    Is this not the computer that the device is normally synced with?

  • Print Management Console displays no printers after applying Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388)

    After installing optional Windows Update for Windows Server 2012 R2 (KB2995388) on a print server upgraded from Windows 2012 to Windows 2012 R2, the Print Management Console wouldn't display locally shared or remotely shared printers. Another print server
    could see the printers on this server, but it couldn't see it's own. Removal of the patch resolved the issue.

    Hi,
    à
    Removal of the patch resolved the issue.
    Thanks for sharing in the forum. Your time and efforts are highly appreciated.
    On current situation, would you please let me confirm something more?
    Please check if this update rollup package (KB2995388) install successfully.
    Please run sfc /scannow command to scan all protected system files after installed this update.
    If be possible, please re-install Print Server feature on the server after installed this update. Any find?
    If any update, please feel free to let me know.
    Hope this helps.
    Best regards,

  • Enable Microsoft Update (not just Windows Update) for Windows 2008 R2

    I am running Windows 2008 R2 in my Citrix XenApp 6.5 farm.
    Office 2013 is installed.
    I can't update Office via Windows Update. Why? Take a look at this ridiculous roundabout tautology it takes me through.
    Here I am in the Windows Update panel:
    If I click "Find out more" to get updates for other Microsoft Updates it takes me here:
    Yeah, duh, I was just in there when I clicked the link to get to this site. What's the deal?
    How does one enable all Microsoft Updates for a Windows 2008 server. I can do this in 2003 easily by going to the Microsoft Update website. 2008 however, this appears to be impossible and apparently no one else in the world has noticed this.

  • Update for Windows 7 (32-bit) (KB2952664) FAILED

    Error Code: 80242016
    During my Windows update I received the above error message while attempting the Update for Windows 7 (KB2952664). 
    I ran the Fixit program that was offered to me in the Help. I was not really able to identify what the exact cause of the problem is in the help however. It is not installing the update when I rerun Windows Update. Any help with this is appreciated. Thanks.

    Thanks toondog, I went to:
    Control Panel > Programs > Programs and Features > View installed updates
    in Windows 7 x64, found the failed update in the "Microsoft Windows" category (it's easier to find if you order updates by descending date) then right-click and Uninstall. It appeared to uninstall because the entry disappeared, however when I refreshed
    it the entry came back. Then I went to Windows Update and it found the update and I reinstalled and this time it was successful.
    It's even easier to find if you enter KB2952664 in the "Search Installed Updates" box in the upper right corner of the Installed Updates window.
    This is the only way that worked for me, although I had to do a Restart after uninstalling the update before Windows Update would let me try it again.
    Toondog85's way—going through Windows Update instead of Programs and Features—didn't give me the option of uninstalling the update, but it was still basically the right solution to the problem.

    Anyone?  help please if you solved this...
    By the time you read this, a new Definition Update is already available, and this issue should no longer be relevant. However, the simple fix is this: DECLINE the annoying update and wait for the next Definition Update to be published.
