HP Recovery Manager and Windows 10

I just bought my computer and it came with Windows 8.1 installed. I reserved Windows 10 so I will receive the upgrade when that OS becomes available. I want to create a recovery set, but if I use HP Recovery Manager now to create the set it will have Windows 8.1. Can I wait a couple of weeks and then create recovery disks after I have Windows 10?

Recovery partiton contains windows 8.1 - It will create only recovery of windows 8.1 even if you install Windows 10 or 8 or 7.The windows 10 copy that you will get is from microsoft and not HP and its free.so if you ever need to re-install, you will have to install windows 8.1 and then perform the upgrade again. You can also download the win10 ISO and burn it to a disc or create a bootable USB Flash Drive to install from and use your microsoft account to activate win10.

HP recovery manager and windows update

Hi,
I am having two problems:
1. I have been having problem with my Recovery Manager, everytime I try to start it, it gives an error window "HP recovery manager has stopped working" and then it shuts the Recovery Manager down. Please advise.
2. In the past I would run the Windows update through the Recovery Manager, but since the Recovery Manager was down, I would just go run the Windows update from the Control Panel. But now even the Windows update cannot be started too. It will just get stuck at the icon without further action when I double click on it. Please help.
This question was solved.

Hi @yawbus ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue about your HP ENVY TouchSmart 15 Notebook and issues with the HP Recovery manager not working correctly. Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase that might need updating.
If that does not fix the issue you might have to install the Recovery manager from here.
You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook.
When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices as they can cause issues.
I would be happy to assist if needed. How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
Please let me know.
Thanks.

Hp4530s lacks recovery manager and recovery patition.

My hp probook 4530s - (core i3 2350m - Windows 7 64 bit) laptop lacks recovery manager and recovery patition. It has genuine windows 7 but it doesnt include recovery CDs as well.
1)So how can i recover the computer and set to factory settings with original OS and Hp software?
2)Can i do it by pressing F11 when booting.
3)Will it takes to recovery manager even if there is no recovery partition or recovery manager in the laptop?
4)Sellers say this product has a hidden recovery partition and it will work when you press F11. Is that true?
Please reply me as soon as possible. Thank you

Hi:
if there is no recovery manager or recovery partition, then you won't be able to use the F11 method to recover the OS.
I never heard of a hidden recovery partition on any HP business notebook I am familiar with.
I guess you can always start up the PC and at the beginning of the HP welcome screen, tap the F11 key and see what prompts you get (if any).
The best thing to do, is to order a set of recovery disks from HP by calling them for the country you live in at the link below.
Call the number listed for business PC's notebooks. You will need to provide the model number and serial number.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/ww-contact-us.html
You can also make your own windows 7 reinstallation DVD if you can read the 25 character product key on the bottom of your notebook. Here's how:
If you can read the 25 character Microsoft windows 7 product key, you can download plain Windows 7 ISO files to burn to a DVD for the version of windows that came installed on your PC, and that is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC's case.
Burn the ISO using the Burn ISO option on your DVD burning program and burn at the slowest possible speed your program will allow. This will create a bootable DVD.
Or use the Windows 7 USB/DVD installation tool to compile the ISO file you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB method of compilation.
http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/html/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool
Use the 25 character product key on the PC to activate the installation.
The key will activate either a 32 or 64 bit installation.
Then go to the PC's support and driver page to install the drivers you need.
Link to the W7 ISO file downloads is below.

RDS 2012 R2 - How do I lockdown access to Local Computer Management and Windows Backup via Group Policy

Greetings all,
I am needing assistance in how to lockdown access to Local Computer Management and Windows Backup via Group Policy for users that access RDS service. I have followed this awesome guide - h t t p://w w w.it.ltsoy.com/windows/lock-down-remote-desktop-services-server-2012/
- but it is missing two important resources that I would like to lock down.Currently, I have successfully locked down Control Panel for users via Group Policy, but I cannot find any group policy or guide on how to restrict user access
to Computer Management (different to Server Manager). When using Win-X shortcut to open the 'Administrator's shortcuts' near the windows icon, I have locked down everything except Computer Management. Computer Management gives direct access to Disk Management,
Shares etc, which are locked down for users. But Windows Server Backup is still accessible. Can someone please guide me on how to restrict access to both Computer Management and Windows Server Backup.
Thanks in advance.
Terry.

HP Backup and Recovery Manager for Windows 7

I installed all the softwares and drivers that came along with the HP upgrade DVD. But, I find that the Backup and Recovery Manager missing on the DVD. Is there a Backup and Recovery Manager for Win 7? I liked the backup and recovery manager that was available on my Vista when I bought this laptop but is now unavailable because of the upgrade!! Any solutions for this? I do not want to use the default Windows Backup as I do not have a separate HDD at the moment to store the backup there and do not wish to populate my local hard disk with backup data!! Thanks.

Yea, basically. There's no working program for your laptop so it seems that you can use from within Windows 7.
However, if you have problems, recovery discs will work. As well, if your recovery partition still exists, you can still access it by pressing F11 when you see the HP logo at startup.

Can not find recovery manager and have no disks to even start.

Ever since I got my laptop fixed I have been having a lot of problems My system was windows 7 and is now windows 8.
First it will not let me complete an update and on the screen it says it is reverting files.
Second when I first start up my computor it will not start up it does not do anything I even waited 1 hour today to see
if it would. and it still did not I turned it off and restarted it to get it to come on. I also even waited almost three hours to try and install updates, and the same error message that I talked about earlier appears, but before that message it had a message saying that it would be two days to complete the install the updates is this even right.
The last thing that I tryed to do well I watched on you tube how to do a system recovery, but I need the disks that I do not have so after watching the video I was very disapointed to find out that I do not even have a recovery manager so this computer is just giving me a whole bunch of problems, and I would hate to send it back yet again, because of this.
I am looking for another job right now and want to get busy and get my resume together and job applications together, because in about 4 days I go back to work and the job that I have now I do not get much time to do anything. So please help and I would like to do it all on line if posible. Thank you.

You have contradictions here.
The specs indicate that the computer came with Windows 8 installed, did you downgrade to Windows 7. If you did the recovery partition is certainly gone. Now you say you have Windows 8, how did you get it installed.
What update are you talking about, is it just one or many?
You say, " and the same error message that I talked about earlier appears, but before that message it had a message saying that it would be two days to complete the install the updates is this even right." Where did you get that message from, no way will it take two days to install an update.
If you desire recovery disks and If you live in the USA/Canada, call HP at this number 1-800-334-5144, and see if you can still get a set of recovery disks.
Otherwise http://welcome.hp.com/country/w1/en/support.html

Can no longer find Recovery Manager for Windows 8

I have a new HP Envy dv6t 7300 notebook. I have turned it on twice. First time I only created my computer name and user ID name and password. Second time (a few minutes ago) I activated Windows 8 and immediately went to create system recovery disks. I typed in the search box "Recovery Manager", clicked on it, and chose "Recovery Media Creation." It then gave me the message "You are only allowed to create ONE set of media recovery" to which I clicked on "I accept." It then took me to the screen that said "Please insert one of the following media". (I was following a you tube explanation of how to do this and so far everything was fine.) However, when it got to this screen, it appeared (from the you tube video), that I was supposed to click on my choice of the media I was going to use (either flashdrive, DVD, or DVDDL.) However, nothing would happen when I tried to click on "DVD". Instead, below the choices to use, the "gear" icon kept spinning, acting like it was going to do something....but it kept spinning and spinning. Since it said at the top of this screen "Please insert one of the following media", I thought maybe I needed to put in the DVD. So I did. Still nothing happened. The gear continued to spin. So I thought maybe the computer was hung. So I took out the DVD and closed out of Recovery Manager thinking I'd try again. Now, however, when I type in the search box "Recovery Manager" nothing comes up. Just the message "No settings match your search." Certainly I can still make these disks, right??? Certainly my "one" time isn't gone because I closed out. Please someone help me! Thanks

Hello parob12,
You’re not able to create recovery media.
If it started the recovery creation, it might have counted that as the one set.
You can call HP and let them know what happened and they should send be able to send you a set.
Here is a link to the phone number.

Came with Windows 7, 64 bit & downloaded Windows 8 Pro upgrade from Microsoft

Now in Windows 8 pro if I try to run Recovery Manager to create a recovery for future use, I get an error stating as follows:
"Recovery Manager was for Windows 7. It's not compatible with Windows 8"

Desktop manager and windows 8

I have attempted to get desktop manager to work with windows 8 for months. I have ensured that I have followed various instructions including enabling .net 3.5 without success. I install the desktop manager and my computer recognises the playbook when I plug it into a usb, however, the blackberry software does not connect to the playbook. Have tried turning off avast antivirus without success.
Can anyone helpl with an alternative, please?
It works with my MAC computer but not with my windows laptop!
alun.
Thanks

I have the exact same situation, and to make it worse I can't even get the desktop manager installed, let alone work. I keep getting error message #1723. It's hard to know whether it's a Windows problem or a Blackberry problem, although if it works on your Mac I guess it's a Windows problem. I bought a new laptop and am having trouble with a lot of incompatibility problems with Windows 8.1. I'll have to revert to my old Windows 7 laptop unless someone comes up with an answer. Hopefully someone in the Community has one [fingers crossed].

I GOT THE SOLUTION!!
This problem happens due a conflict between the Samsung's Software "NEW PC STUDIO" and the Apple Drivers!
The solution is unistall all Samsung's Software and removing all Apple Softwares as well (like iTunes, device drivers etc)
Then cleaning the Windows Register with some software like CCleaner AND manually using REGEDIT, just find for Samsung (carefully with other Samsung Devices like HardDrive. You musn't remove something like that) then, finding for New PC Studio.
Remove all Keys related Samsung New PC Studio.
Restart your PC and reinstall iTunes lastest version.
Now, you can put your iPhone in Recovery Mode that Windows will recognize it!

Storage Manager and Windows 2012 Deduplication

Does anyone have Storage Manager working with the deduplicated volumes in Windows 2012? It works fine on 2012 itself, but when I attempt to move data to or from a deduplicated volume I get the following error:
182: the requested operation is not supported.
The error seems pretty self explanatory. But I'm really hoping there's a way to get it working. We're planning to do a complete teardown and rebuild of our storage and this could be a deal breaker for whether we use Storage Manager at all to manage user data.

Could you send an email to [email protected] explaining what
you're doing and providing some details of your deduplication settings?

Remote Management and Windows VNC clients

Hey guys,
I recently had a go at getting the built-in VNC server in Leopard (as part of remote management) up and running.
Remote control works flawlessly from other Macs, but it refuses connections to Windows clients most of the time (throws up errors like 'Error waiting for server message' or something).
Any ideas? I thought it might have something to do with the Windows client not understanding the encryption, but haven't found any way to change security settings.
Thanks in advance!

Have you giving the server a VNC password?
System Preferences -> Sharing -> Remote Management -> Computer Settings -> VNC viewers may control screen with password: xxxxxxx
What VNC client are you using on Windows. Not all VNC clients are created equal? I know about TightVNC (which has been reported to work), RealVNC, and UltraVNC are 3 that I've heard about.
You can also install your own VNC server (in parallel using a different port or instead of the Mac OS X VNC). Vine Server (aka OSXvnc) has been used successfully for years. After all not all VNC servers are created equal either
