Hp support assistant is not working

I've reinstalled it ans still receiving the same message: The application has encountered with a serious problem and must close, if a correction is found windows will contact me. This has been going on for over two weeks.

Dear Thomas558 -
Depending on what your version of Windows you are running, one of these documents should fix the issue with HP Support Assistant:
Troubleshooting HP Support Assistant (Windows 8)
Troubleshooting HP Support Assistant (Windows 7)

My HP Support Assistant is not working?

Hi,
Try the following
First of all, uninstall your current version of HP Support Assistant by using the Microsoft 'Fixit' on the following link - this is particularly useful in correcting issues that may prevent reinstallation on machines running a 64bit OS.
http://support.microsoft.com/mats/Program_Install_and_Uninstall
When this has completed, restart the PC.
Next download and install the latest version of HP Support Assistant from the page on the link below - the download links are towards the bottom of the page.

After the installation, restart the PC again.

@alki,
I understand that sound has quit working after support assistant ran a few updates.
Press Windows Key + X and select device manager. The sound card should be listed in the sound section. What status is displayed for the sound card?
What is the status of the mute key on the notebook? Does it have an amber light?
What happens if you try to install this driver?

Hi,
I have a brand new HP Pavillion Notebook , 14-v024. with window 8.1, 64 bit, AMD A8 processor. I am not been able to open HP Support Assistant.Whenever i click on it a message pops up saying " This application has encountered serious problem click ok to restart" and then nothing happens.

I even had Blue screen of death couple of times now considering it is a brand new laptop i am not happy with it at all. Can anyone PLease throw some light on this issue.
Thank you soo much.

Hi @Vikz05
Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having a couple of problems with your notebook. I will be happy to help with the Support Assistant and wireless issues. I am assuming that you tried reinstalling the HPSA from the website link, let's try doing it another way. Use the Recovery Manager to Restore the Original Drivers and Software, install both the HP Support Assistant in this manner and your wireless driver.
You can also try using the built-in Windows Troubleshooter mentioned in this HP document Troubleshooting Wireless Network and Internet. I also included a number of generic wireless troubleshooting below:
Power cycle the network:
1. Shut down your notebook.
2. Unplug the power to your router.
3. Unplug the power to your modem.
4. Wait at least 45 seconds.
5. Plug in the modem, and wait for it to come back online.
6. Plug in the router, and wait for it to come back online.
7. Turn on your notebook, and test your connection.
Reset the TCP/IP settings:
1. Go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
2. Right click on the command prompt icon and chose Run as administrator.
3. In the window that opens type "netsh int ip reset resetlog.txt" without quotes, and press enter.
4. Restart your PC and test.
Reset the winsock catalogue:
1. Go to your start screen/menu and type CMD.
2. Right click on the command prompt icon and chose Run as administrator.
3. In the window that opens type "netsh winsock reset" without quotes, and press enter.
4. Restart your PC and test.
Change power management option for your wireless adapter:
1. Open Device Manager.
2. Expand the Network adapters.
3. Right click on the Ethernet/Wireless Adapter and click Properties.
4. Click the Power Management tab.
5. Remove the check mark beside Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power.
6. Click OK.
7. Test.
Forget the Network and reconnect (Windows 8):
1. Press Windows Key + C
2. Click Settings.
3. Click Change PC settings.
4. Click Network on the left.
5. Click Manage known networks.
6. Click the network name.
7. Click Forget.
8: Reconnect

HP Support Assistant function not working on my laptop

I tried to use the HP support assistant software to make a call to HP support on a new laptop I purchases a week ago. The software never completes to give me access to an HP tech. I have 3 issues unrelated to this that I need to deal with and will be posting them in the forums here but I would expect the support software to work as intended. If there's a simple number to call HP I would like that since their intended way of getting in touch doesn't work for now for me.
Thanks!!!
Donald

I didn't include specifics on the laptop. Sorry about that. HEre they are:
Product name: HP ENVY TS 17 Notebook PC

Hp support assistant has stopped working windows 8

My HP Support Assistant has stopped working. I have read other comments on the forum concerning this problem and attempted to follow their advice. But I am still having the same problem. I uninstalled the HP support in the Control Panel uninstall programs. I restarted my computer then reinstalled the HP support. When installing it asked if I wanted to write over all of the files because HP files were still on my computer. Apparently it did not fully uninstall. I emptied my recycle bin and cleaned out my registry after I tried to uninstall the HP file again. Went back and reinstalled HP support again. This time I did not get the message that it was already installed and do I want to overwrite the files. I thought that the problem was solved but it is not. I cannot get the HP support to work at all. Please can anyone tell me what to do. I am not very savvy with computers and sure use some help.
My computer is an: HP Envy 20 TouchSmart 20d011 - using Windows 8.
I had this problem with another HP computer and called Tech support and they told me to completely restore my computer and then my hard drive crashed. I had to send the computer back an purchased this one. But now dejavu all over. Thank you for any response to my question.

HT204350 Migration Assistant is NOT working

Migration Assistant is NOT working - Have tried from from a hard disk and using the Thunderbolt cable. Keeps Looking for Source.
Any ideas? I really want to more on to my new Mac.

That the Migration Assistant doesn't work is a KNOWN ISSUE. Last week I got a new iMac and the old and new couldn't find one another. I called tech support 3 times and spent I don't know how long on the phone. They finally suggested I take them both to an Apple store, which I did today. The Genius knew all about it - said it's a known issue. To "resolve" it he started the old iMac in "disk mode" and then the new one could see it, but that wasn't an adequate fix: After spending over an hour moving the files, they wouldn't have been in their proper folders. I would have had to manually file 6 years worth of pics and files! NFW - I returned the new computer and will make do with my old one until Apple gets this right.

HP Support Assistant does not inform about ANY updates for drivers/softwares

Hello everyone, HP Support Assistant is not showing ANY sort of updates/messages for latest drivers and softwares although there are updated drivers available for my notebook at the Driver Software Support section from where you can manually download and install them. I'll be updating all my drivers one by one in the morning but ever since I've bought my laptop I've wondered why HPSA has not came to any benefit of mine yet. Is this a known problem? Help is highly respected!Regards.

Okay so its starting to give updates, so far I've had 3 updates for HP System Event Utility, Simeplepass and HP Wireless Button Driver. I guess it works very specifically and on it's own. No luck on other drivers.

Lasttry,
Thank you for that information.
First I would like you to uninstall the current version of HP support assistant. This link will guide you to how to access the list of your programs, once there right click on the HP support assistant and then left click on uninstall.
Once that it is finished restart the computer, and when the computer is back up go to this page to install the newest version of the HP support assistant, when you open the link click on home and business desktops. After that is done try testing the program out for an extended period of time.
Please respond back at your earliest convenience.

The "automatic Install" in the windows support software does not work. I cannot see the USB in Windows to manually start set up.
I have downloaded windows support software from Apple 3 time with the same result. Where can I get a clean copy of the Windows support software?

Did you correctly format your usb stick in accordance with the Boot Camp installation instructions? Go here to the Boot Camp System Requirements page, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5634, look for your computer model/year and download the correct version of Windows Support software.

HP Printer Assistant is not working ...keeps loading...

Hello, I have purchased a HP Officejet Pro 6830 All in One printer and have installed the software from the CD, installed updates and already used the HP Docter software but the Printer Assistant does not load. It keeps on with a blank screen, with the message that the Assistant is loading and Default Text message (see screenshot) it is just that, My system is Win 7 professional and compuer is Asus. The printer and scanner are working but the Printer Assistant software does not work. My previous printer was also an all in one from HP and it had HP solution Center to manage the printer and scanning process but reading the forum I understand that is not a solution for this problem.

Hi,
Although the issue seems different, try following this document and install the included patch, then check if you may able to load the HP Printer Assistant again:
