HP Product Improvement Study pop-ups will not stop even after uninstalling it.

I opted in to the Product Support feature when I was installing my HP Pro 8600 thinking this would be only a one time deal but I was wrong.  At least twice a week the notification pops up that the information gathered is ready to be transmitted and quite frankly is getting more than annoying.
I have gone to the Control Panel and uninstalled the program for this feature, rebooted and still this message will not go away.  Is there anything else that needs to be uninstalled or has HP planted something in the Registry that needs to be removed?
Are there any other options other than totally uninstalling the printer software and re-installing it?  This last option shouldn't be an option at all as there should be an easier fix.
This question was solved.
View Solution.

If you uninstall the program HP OfficeJet 8600 Product Improvement Study from the Control Panel, you should not see any popups unless the uninstall didnt work for some reason.
Can you go to All Programs\HP\HP OfficeJet 8600 and look for HP Product Improvement Study and click it. This should launch a screen that lets you opt out of the study. Click the I Decline button and you should not see any more pop-ups.
Hope this helps
I work for HP but the replies and suggestions are my own.

  • Firmware 1.1 upgrade will not install - even after uninstalling Parallels

    I was asked to upgrade my firmware (on many occasions, actually). I go through the process and it will not install. It asks me to shut down the computer and continuing holding the button until the light blinks. It then makes a noise (high pitch tone), this stops, the mac screen comes up gray and a bar comes up and disappears immediately. The computer boots and then the firmware page opens and asks me to go through this again. I cannot get to "OK". I called Apple and was told this happens with Parallels installed and I should uninstall this. I have tried this and it makes no difference. There may be some files I should delete - but I wasn't instructed to do this.

  • My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. What should I do?

    My iPod Touvh 4th Generation won't turn on. It will not charge even after I used a few chargers and will not connect to a computer. The Home button is broken and I don't know if the Lock/Sleep button is now broken or stuck as well. I believe there may be a problem with the battery or the backlight. I've had my screen replaced once by some stooges. What should I do?

  • Images and Pop-Ups Will Not Open in IE???

    I have several .html pages being displayed within an i-Frame.
    There are thumbnail images on .html pages that are being displayed
    within the i-frames, and these thumbnails are not displaying in IE,
    even though they do display in Firefox. The thumbails are linked
    through JavaScript code (written by Dreamweaver 8) to open up .html
    pages. Some of these thumbnails are displaying (even though some do
    not and all use the same code), though the links to the pop-ups are
    not working.
    Everything works fine in FireFox, this is only a problem in
    IE. I am using version 7 of IE.
    Does anyone have ANY ideas why this may not be working????
    Thanks for any assistance!!!!

    IE7 has popup blocking turned on by default. You may need to

  • Permissions will not set, even after using terminal commands?

    Hey,
    I found a thread on here for using the terminal to type in commands for the user permissions and for the PSIX permissions on Leopard (10.5) server.  These commands are supposed to clean the server of all underlying(hidden) permissions that you cant see and then you are supposed to be able to then set the permissions again and finally, to hit "Propagate Permissions" so that all the permissions set for the shared volume then get farmed out to all sub files/folders.  This did not work when I tried it in the terminal, it said "Command not found" even after I typed in the admin password.  Is there anyone out there who can tell me the actual way to fix the old permissions and get new ones set?
    The story is:  We had an old server on a G4 when i first took control of the server, I took the shared hard drive out of the G4 and inserted it into a G5 and started using it with the leopard server.  the permissions did not really need to be set on that volume because they had carried over from the last time they were shared.  But we recently just got a Drobo unit for our server and I recently transferred all the shared files and folders over to the new volume, but ever since I cant get the permissions to farm out to all the stations, it shows me that its done on the server.  But when I go to access the files I am able to delete faculty folders where I had set the permissions to "read only" so I am wondering if there is a streamlined way of going about this or if I should just start from scratch and use all brand new HDD's?
    Please Help!

  • HT1491 My password in iTunes will not work, even after changing it. It keeps showing a window to add PW. I do and it pops up again.

    My PW in iTues will not work. Even after changing it. Window pops up and ask for PW. Over and over.

    I would be worried about that - but it may turn out to be nothing.
    Since you already changed your password, you're probably OK - but I recommend looking at your purchase history to see if there's any unauthorized purchases (use iTunes on your Mac or PC to go to the itunes store, then click your account in the upper-left or upper-right corner). If there are any new purchases that you didn't make, click the button to report problem (and if they happened after you reset your password, you should immediately change your password again).
    I think sometimes when you change your password and verifiy your credit card info, it can "reset" the warnings - so it may actually have been you logging in to your own account that caused you to get the warning. But I'm not absolutely sure of that, so it's best to check your purchase history (and reset your password if necessary - but you already did that).
    I also recommend turning on "two-step verification" (but Apple makes you wait a few days after changing your password to turn that on). With "two-step verification", Apple will send you a text message with a 4-digit code the 1st time you try to buy something from a new computer - since a hacker won't have your phone, they won't be able to continue (theoretically). After the 1st time, it goes back to mostly working normally (until the 1st time you  try to purchase from another new computer, then you get another text message - so this alerts you to someone, somewhere else, trying to get into your account).

  • Some Songs Will Not Play Even After Being Authorized

    Just this past weekend, I had to reinstall Tiger and then upgrade to Leopard due to a “kernel panic” that would not go away no matter what was tried. As such, iTunes was started from scratch. Unfortunately, I could not locate my iTunes library within the Previous System folder after this reinstall. In all honesty, I probably just didn’t know where to look.
    So, I transferred my music from my iPod to my iMac. But, some of my songs will no longer play. The songs that will not play are songs that I purchased and downloaded from iTunes. However, the recent songs purchased and downloaded will play…it’s songs that were purchased and downloaded a few months ago. Strange.
    When I click these songs a box pops up for me to authorize it. I do so and it says that this computer is already authorized. I click on the song again and the same thing repeats itself.
    I have two accounts that I have used. I have both accounts authorized on this computer. I have restarted with no success. I have unauthorized and reauthorized with no success. I’m afraid to sync my iPod in case these same characteristics transfer to my iPod.
    I have not updated Leopard to the latest version as of yet since I just reinstalled from the disc orginally sent with my iMac. Any help is greatly appreciated as I’m out of ideas…

    I had the exact same problem today. Two days ago I let Software Update auto-install Security Update 2008-008 (Client Intel) on my machine. I was rewarded with the gray screen and spinning wheel that never went away, and after hours of fruitless attempts to resolve the problem with Disk Utility and Terminal, I was forced to Archive and Restore to 10.4.8 and then rebuild my system back to 10.4.11.
    I thought everything was fine after that until I went to play my iTunes music tonight. Though I'd had no problem playing music ripped from CDs, anything that I'd bought from the iTunes store wouldn't play -- it gave me the exact same error that you reported. I've followed all of Apple's troubleshooting steps -- repairing disk permissions, deleting the SC Info folder, etc., and nothing worked. I spent nearly an hour online with iTunes Chat Support and they say that my account tests fine on their end, so it's not iTunes -- something must have happened to my machine.
    Personally, I think it was Security Update 2008-008. It's been nothing but trouble.
    Now I have to pay $50 for a phone call to Apple Tech Support. Lucky me.

  • Spoken work files will not play even after importing/converting?

    I have some audio files recorded on my Android phone with the basic recording app and the files play when I press the spacebar to preview them in Mavericks. However, after importing them into iTunes using various import settings, including the podcast spoken word ones, they just will not play. When I double click on the file it looks like it is about to play, the apple icon at the top switches to what looks like a progress bar, though it is different from other tracks that do play, and then it immediately switches back to the apple icon and does not play.
    Any ideas of anything I can do?
    Thanks.

    I've found an issue with movies when the audio is IMA format. Is that the format of your audio?
